Swiss Army Style Wool Blanket Reproduction

After the destruction of World War II and under the looming shadow of a coming Cold War, the government of Switzerland undertook a massive re-organization of its military and its emergency preparedness capabilities. It was due to this effort that the first iterations of what would become the classic Swiss Army Blanket were born. The design reached its zenith in the 1960's, and this reproduction is based off those versions. Iconic brown color with red stripes and sewn-on white Swiss cross. Made from a long-lasting easy-storing blend of wool and synthetic fibers. Easy to throw over a couch, stow in a chest, or stack in the hallway closet for a future emergency. Same style as classic Swiss Army military blanket Brown with red stripes and a white Swiss cross Thick wool blend (over 4 lbs.) for dependable warmth 55/45 wool/synthetic fibers Hemmed edge for long-lasting use Note: This blanket upon arrival will smell of a pest deterring chemical. We recommend exposing this item to the outside air and elements for a minimum of 72 hours before use. Do not wash.
