They are basically large blankets with holes for your arms to go through (as seen in the photos above). Why is this better than a standard blanket? Because it really enables you to snuggle up and keep warm while also having your arms free to use the remote, play on the laptop, eat food - you get the idea! They are generally made from warm and ultra-comfy fleece material and come in a wide range of colours. Once you’ve tried it - you’ll wonder how you ever lived without one!
The good news is that these blankets with sleeves are proving a big hit which means you have a range of stockists to pick from. Probably the most famous brand out there is Slanket (see what they did there, clever eh!). Below you’ll find up-to-date prices (and the occasional promo) on buying a slanket or other blankets with sleeves in the UK. Have fun and remember that you can’t just live in your blanket, honestly!
- Buy a Slanket from PrezzyBox - don’t forget to enter ‘blanket’ in the promo or offer code box for £5 off when using our link, yay! This is valid for any basket over £20 - so why not explore the rest of the site while you’re there
- Buy a Slanket form PrezziesPlus - these are a good stockist and also have some kids Slankets there if you want to get the little ‘uns something to stay warm in! If you go through my link and use ‘bws6′ then you can get £6 off - neat, eh?
Stop Press! We’ve heard that a large shipment of the lovely Slankets reached the UK on 17th October so stock levels will be improving - but don’t hang around as they’ll be in demand over these bleak winter months! You might also want to try buying slankets here through another listings site.
