Rumpl makes some of the coolest, backcountry-worthy technical blankets, and the new Backcountry Puffy Blanket is next level. It’s super compressible for stashing easily in a backpack, panier or gear box, and only weighs 1.76 lbs., while packing a hell of a lot of warmth-giving insulation with its synthetic-down fill. The tough, waterproof-treated DWR Ripstop shell fends off the elements from wind, damp conditions, and harsh treatment out in the woods. A cool feature for chilly nights or mornings, the redesigned Cape Clip allows you to wear the blanket hands-free over your shoulders and connect the sides together like a cape. Plus, there’s a zippered corner pocket for stashing personal items. MSRP: $149. Rumpl.com
