FAQ

 

 

Q: What is a Sherpa blanket?

A: A Sherpa blanket is a double-layer blanket made with a smooth microfiber flannel fabric on the front and a plush Sherpa fleece backing. This combination provides superior warmth, softness, and comfort while remaining lighter than many traditional wool blankets. Sherpa blankets are widely used in homes, hotels, holiday gift programs, and premium retail collections.

Q: What is the difference between a Sherpa blanket and a flannel blanket?

A: A flannel blanket is typically made from a single layer of flannel fleece, offering lightweight warmth and everyday comfort. A Sherpa blanket combines flannel with an additional Sherpa fleece backing, resulting in greater insulation, a thicker appearance, and a more luxurious feel. Sherpa blankets are generally preferred for colder climates and premium winter collections.

A: The ideal GSM depends on the intended application and market.
280–350 GSM is suitable for lightweight everyday use.
