Serious warmth in a tiny package

The SOL Emergency Blanket XL is built to keep you alive when the weather turns. Its vacuum-metalized polyethylene reflects 90% of your radiated body heat back to you, and at just 91g it belongs in every rucksack, glovebox and range bag.

Tougher than a foil blanket

Standard mylar survival blankets shred at the first snag. This Heatsheets material will not shred if nicked or punctured, and any rips can be repaired in the field. It is also quiet, so it will not crinkle and flap noisily in high wind.

Shelter from the elements

Waterproof and windproof, the blanket blocks rain and wind as well as trapping heat. The extra-large 147 x 249cm size wraps two people, and the high-visibility orange exterior makes you easy for rescuers to find.

More than a blanket

Use it as a ground cloth, a gear cover, an improvised shelter or a first-aid blanket. It is a true multi-use backcountry tool. Add it to your outdoor survival kit and never head out unprepared.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a cheap foil blanket?

Unlike thin mylar blankets, the SOL XL uses durable Heatsheets material that will not shred if nicked or punctured, stays quiet in the wind, and can be reused. It still reflects 90% of your body heat.

How big is it?

It measures 147 x 249cm (58 x 98in), large enough to wrap two people, yet it weighs only 91g and packs down small.

Can it be used for anything other than a blanket?

Yes. It doubles as an emergency ground cloth, gear cover, shelter or first-aid blanket, making it a genuine multi-use survival tool.

Why is it orange?

The high-visibility orange exterior makes you far easier for rescuers to spot, which matters in a genuine emergency in the hills or backcountry.

Is it waterproof and windproof?

Yes. The Heatsheets material is both waterproof and windproof, so it shelters you from rain and wind as well as reflecting your body heat.
