48x48 inches. Big enough to wrap a grown-up, packable enough for a daypack.
Temperature-regulating. Cool mornings, warm afternoons, year-round. UPF 50 built in.
Stretchy merino. Swaddle, nursing cover, stroller cover, cape, fort, camp blanket. Ready for whatever the day needs.
Naturally odor-resistant. Stays fresh through back-to-back adventure days.

Fabric
100% Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) Merino Wool
230gsm, 18.9 micron — lightweight, breathable, and perfect for year-round use
Where It's Made
Our merino wool pieces are thoughtfully crafted in Vietnam by skilled artisans following RWS guidelines. We believe in producing responsibly and sustainably, ensuring fair working conditions for the people behind our products.
How to Care
- Machine wash on the gentle cycle with cool or cold water and a mild or wool-specific detergent
- Lay flat to dry to preserve shape and softness, or tumble dry on low with similar items
- Hang outside for a few hours to refresh between washes — merino naturally resists odours and bacteria, so it rarely needs a full wash
Storage
Store in a clean, dry space. Use airtight bags or bins and add cedar blocks or lavender sachets to prevent moths. Wash or air out periodically to remove any residue that may attract them.

what families are saying
adventures well with
Yes, always. No blends, no synthetics, ever. The Adventure Blanket is 100% RWS certified merino wool. Renewable, biodegradable, and the real reason it performs the way it does.
48x48 inches. Big enough to wrap a grown-up, generous enough for a toddler fort, and packable enough to fold into a stroller pocket or daypack.
Yes. At 18.9 microns, the fibers are fine enough to bend rather than poke, which is what makes merino feel soft rather than scratchy. It's gentle on most sensitive skin from day one.
Honestly, the whole family. It starts as a swaddle, becomes a stroller cover, a nursing cover, a hiking layer, a camp blanket, and a fort. Most of our customers tell us their kids are still using it years later.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a wool-friendly detergent. Lay flat to dry. Merino holds its shape and softness wash after wash. No special treatment needed.
It's one of our most-gifted products, especially for new babies. It arrives beautifully packaged and lasts long enough to become a family staple rather than something that gets outgrown in a season.
Resell it through Iksplor More and give it a second life with another family. Or compost it. 100% merino biodegrades in months, not centuries.

Is this a blanket? Is it a towel? Maybe a sun shade?? IT'S ALL OF THE ABOVE. I had one of these for my last baby and it was the ONLY blanket we took for him on all our adventures, we never left the house without it. Once he started to outgrow needing a security blanket it was time for summer, we started draping it over our wagon for sun protection, then grabbed it one day to use as a quick towel and realized it was the PERFECT camp towel. At some point it got lost; paired with our favorite camping sound machine (if you're here because you found it at a PNW campground, I hope you have tons of amazing memories with it!) and I missed it so much I bought another one- even though we are way out of the baby years. This is one of my favorite things Iksplor offers.
Store owner replied: This is the best. Thank you Helena. xoxo
With a February baby, I wanted to make sure baby would sleep warm and cozy. This blanket works great as a swaddle now and I love that it will continue to be used as a versatile, easy to travel with, blanket.
I got so many blankets for my first baby and this is BY FAR the best. It is warm when doubled up but also breathable when just one layer is used. It packs so well and tucks in around her nicely. I came back on to buy another just now because I think we lost ours today in the airport and no other blanket I own will do…! I hope they get restocked soon and I’ll buy multiple.
Store owner replied: Oh my goodness. What a phenomenal review and adorable photos!! She is the cutest. We are trying to find one in our inventory for you. If not, we are in the process of making a new run. Hoping we can get these in quickly for you!
Love this in the mountains in winter and summer. Go to blanket, a must have for the stroller. I use it a lot for sun protection if I carry baby unexpectedly
Got the adventure blanket for my baby for Christmas and we hardly use any other blankets now! So soft and a great size (some baby blankets are way too small!!) easy to clean and dries fast!!
We’ve been using this blanket for a little over a year, and we don’t leave home without it. We love living in Tahoe and experiencing all four seasons. Our son loves his beanies too. The blanket has been our favorite item so far, it’s warm, great quality, and easy to travel with. We hope there are more colors soon!
Great for those weird not cold, but not warm temperatures on evening strolls!
This blanket went to the hospital with me to keep me warm, and is now keeping our little one warm during naps, stroller rides, and other adventures! So versatile and perfect size.
We love our adventure blanket and use it every day! It's my go-to blanket for baby (and me) because it's so lightweight, soft and warm. My baby has been wrapped up in, covered by, or playing on, her adventure blanket at some point during every day of her life so far and we just ordered another (plus some socks), so we'll have one of each color. We are happy to be Iksplorers!!
This blanket is my absolute first choice for my new baby. It’s warm and cozy yet light enough to use year round. Big brother eve. uses it as a cape and for forts. We all love it so much, we will definitely be purchasing a 2nd one soon. I wish it came in purple!
We love our Iksplor Adventure Blanket - definitely the favorite swaddle/ nap blanket/ fort blanket/ snuggle blanket/ outside blanket/ shawl of everyone in our family. It’s light, but warm, and stretchy and BIG enough to be anything. Definitely going to get another one soon!
The adventure blanket has become the favorite blankie for both my toddlers and my baby. It is ideal for covering up on stroller walks or in the car seat and makes an excellent swaddle. The material is incredibly snuggly, has a perfect amount of stretch and thickness and is a generous size compared to other kids blankets and swaddles.
Alice loves to get wrapped in her adventure blanket for a big adventure in her bassinet for a nap. We plan to take it to the east coast over thanksgiving and test it out in cooler weather. Thank you!
We love our swaddle! The material keeps our baby warm and comforted while still providing a light weight that isn’t bulky or cumbersome. The material washes beautifully and the jade color is so saturated and rich... I imagine we’ll be loving this blanket for years to come!
I know your target market is little kids but I bought your blanket because I thought I would make an excellent travel/airplane blanket. I gave my 27 year old the blanket and it has been literally her favorite thing since. It is the PERFECT gift for college kids, I’m tellin’ ya! A travel blanket that rolls up and is light and not all gross and unsustainable like fleece. You're never too old for a blankie!
Our family loves our Iksplor Adventure Blanket. Since we received them, they've been a staple in our kit - no matter if we are heading to the river, the beach, out for a ride or just lying around at home. When we are short on space, we use these as towels for the whole family and there's nothing like wrapping yourself in smooth merino after an icy dip.
We love using our iksplor blanket for so many of our activities - from the farmers market to the pool - this blanket is the easiest to carry around, a great size to share with friends, and comes out perfectly clean in the wash. And the color is stunning!
We LOVE this little power house of a blanket! It is so lightweight and easy to pack, keeps babe warm, and provides snuggles galore both in and out of our home. The adventure blanket is the first thing I grab each morning, knowing I’ll be prepared for wherever the day takes us.
I received this blanket as a gift from my mother-in-law. It’s fantastic! Unlike traditional wool blankets which can be heavy, bulky, and itchy; this merino wool blanket is very soft and lightweight, yet still keeps our daughter warm and cozy! I especially love that it’s generously sized but is very packable. It easily fits into a stroller pocket or diaper bag. This blanket makes a great gift!
This blanket is incredible!! We take it everywhere with us. It's soft, versatile, warm, lightweight. I love having it for my son when we go on any adventure - and I don't have to worry about it taking up space. Every mom needs one of these blankets! :)
This blanket is awesome! We are a family on the go -- from bike rides, to backpacking trips, to airplane travel here and abroad -- we need gear that is easy to use, light to carry and durable for the long haul. The iksplor adventure blanket is that, and more! My daughter loves how soft it is, I love how large it is and we both love the color, it's vibrant and inviting. I can tell we'll be using this blanket for years to come!
I adore my blanket, especially when mom pulls me in the Chariot or hikes with me on a chilly morning. I give it 3 thumbs up.
We love this blanket! It’s soft and warm, but lightweight, it dries quickly and is very durable. It’s also super versatile. We’ve used it for airplane travel, camping adventures and preschool naps. But the best part is the size - unlike most swaddle blankets, it’s big enough for me to use. I don’t worry about it slipping off my daughter or not covering her feet during naps, and I no longer have to double up her blankets like I used to do. We’ve tried many different kinds of baby blankets and this is our favorite.
We love our blanket! I always hated carrying or bringing a blanket anywhere because they are usually so bulky. Not this blanket! The iksplor adventure blanket is twice the size of any of my sons other blankets BUT folds up SMALLER and is WARMER! I love it! I have a feeling there will be a lot of these around our house soon because they are just BETTER! We can’t wait to get our hats next!
As 5th generation Outfitters based out of Wilson/Jackson Hole WY, our gear matters to us and we pack carefully and concisely. We love this blanket and we love merino wool for adventures, mountains, beach, and travel . It is versatile in more ways than you can imagine. It kept me (mom) warm during a thunder storm at 10,000ft stuffed under my rain jacket. It was a towel for both my daughter and I after swimming in high alpine lakes and streams. It served as a pillow when my husband left his behind. It was a great picnic blanket next to high alpine lakes. It is soft, cozy, well-made, drys quickly. Highly recommend this product for adults and kids alike. Thanks, IKSPLOR!
we took the Adventure Blankets with us to Alaska and they were SOOOO much better than I had even hoped. Not only are they super soft, have a great weight AND are packable, they also machine wash and dry very well. A wash was required after the germs of the airplane/airport. These are the blankets I am packing with us for every adventure (long-distance traveling or not!)
The kids, the dogs, and mom all love these blankets! They are light weight and pack-able, while being warm and easy to clean!
Best blanket I have found! My wife and I got this blanket for our kids and ended up getting another one for ourselves. At first we used it as an outdoor blanket for wrapping up the kids on cold nights camping or after a day at the lake. Soon they wanted to use it as their night time blanket and while on the couch watching TV. The quality is amazing, high end merino wool that has held up to abuse by twin boys. No piling, no stretching out of shape, and all the stains come out with a simple washing. I cannot recommend this product more highly - worth every penny!
My daughter really likes your swaddle, we have used it every night and LOVE IT. It doesn't rub her face like other swaddles do and the stretchiness of the fabric allows her a little wiggle room, but not too much. It keeps her at just the right temperature. No waking up cold or sweaty, which is such a relief. I don't know where we would be without this swaddle, thank you!
Perfect for Everything! I have loved helping test the adventure blanket. Our pediatrician actually recommended merino for my little guys eczema flair ups. This blanket is not only an incredibly soft crib blanket, it’s also large enough to use as a picnic blanket, stroller cover, and everyday blanket as he’s grown. As many mamas can testify, if you can find anything that is high quality, that has multiple functions, and you can use for an extended period of time, it’s always worth the money!! The cherry on top is that it looks as good today as it did when I bought it, despite constant washing. Love this blanket!
Perfect travel blanket! I loved using this on our recent 10 hour + of travel to Hawaii. It packs easily and provides the perfect amount of warmth. We even used it as a beach towel as the sand didn't stick to it and dries so quickly!
You are so amazing and I love your products! 🤸♀️😘🤸♀️
Super soft and sturdy!
Love this blanket. It is soft and breathable and stretchy, which is great for cocooning our son so that he sleeps better and more comfortable.
Works great for our Babe who will usually only sleep in the stretchy bamboo swaddles. Plenty of stretch, soft lightweight wool not too hot for indoor use, and huge with lots of room to grow!
Love this blanket! It's the perfect size to be cozy and packable. It joined us on a trip to rural South Asia and held up beautifully.
Merino Travel Adventure Blanket
Store owner replied: Thank you so much for the awesome review!
I bought this blanket for my newest grandson and it is enjoyed by the baby and his three year old brother. It washes well.
Store owner replied: We love hearing this! Thank you.
We bring our blanket EVERYWHERE! In the winter, we used it as an extra wrap around the baby carrier, in the summer, we use it to lay baby on for diaper changes or to play on, and we use it almost daily for morning walks! It’s incredibly soft and stretchy and the perfect weight. Super easy to toss in the wash for a quick clean and always cleans up perfectly regardless of the adventure! This blanket is well worth it!
Use every time we leave the house
