Having just been given a SOL sport utility blanket for my birthday which cost about £25:( i was a bit miffed to find these for a third of the price....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hooded-Survival-Blanket-Green-/330743670152?ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:GB:3160

so i ordered one to compare the two. I have to say if you are in the market for this type of product save yourself about £15 by getting the fleabay one cos it seems just as well made as the SOL one and has an integral hood as well!

I have one of these and they are great, but very strongly odoured to begin with, I was going to use it inside my winter bag but use it outside instead, the odour is dwindling and will revert to plan "A" soon,

Good post, I never even thought to post this item,

PS. will keep frost off car windscreen too

They are 147cm long (excluding the hood) and 173cm wide ( with a couple of straps inside to enable self wrapping) hope this helps
