because I feel like it...

These were originally discovered in a SkyMall magazine- where all clever products reside, of course- by a coworker of mine. They have become our obsession, especially in the winter when the brick warehouse office of ours turns frigid. The best part about the Slanket, however, are the color descriptions. Check them out- http://www.theslaknet.com/


"The cool temperate rain forests of the Pacific Northwest are home to the legendary Sasquatch, aka Bigfoot. Some speculate that Sasquatch is really the ancient ape, Gigantopithecus blacki. Either way we know one thing, when the beast kicks back after a night of roaming the lush forest, he snuggles in with a Moss Green Slanket."
"if passion was a Slanket, it'd be this color..."

And lastly, from the "Slanketeering" portion of the site:

"Slanket Proposal-
My boyfriend and I have been talking about getting Slankets for weeks, but hadn't yet bought them. I came home on Saturday, and he said he got us early Valentine's Day presents- Slankets! He had his on, and gave me mine. Turns out, he had had his mother sew pockets into mine, and inside the pocket was an engagement ring... He asked, and I said yes! Proposal via Slanket... what could be better?!"
