Great question—size affects comfort and coverage. Consider how you’ll use it:

• 40" x 50": Toddler or lap size for younger kids.
• 46" x 60" or 50" x 60": Standard throw for sofas, reading nooks, and most kids.
• 50" x 70": Extra length for taller teens and adults on the couch.
• 60" x 72": Oversized plush for maximum drape and cozy lounging.
• ~62" x 90": Twin/full coverage for beds or full-body snuggling.

Check the dimensions in each product’s title/description and match them to your space and height. If you’re shopping for a bed, allow a bit of overhang. Availability of pickup or delivery can vary by location—choose what’s convenient at checkout.

Each fabric has a distinct feel and warmth level:

• Fleece: Lightweight, breathable, and cozy—great for everyday lounging and mild climates.
• Microfiber plush (often called “silk touch”): Velvety-soft with a smooth sheen; comfy for year-round use.
• Sherpa reverse: Two-sided design with a fluffy, wool-like layer for extra warmth in cooler rooms.
• Flannel: Brushed softness with a slightly lighter profile than thick plush.
• Knit styles: Textured and breathable for layering.

If you like a lighter feel, go fleece or flannel. For a luxe, velvety touch, choose microfiber plush. When you want maximum coziness, a sherpa-backed throw can add comforting warmth. Care instructions may differ by fabric, so always check the label.

Most character throws are simple to care for, but it’s best to follow the specific label. A gentle routine can help keep them soft:

1. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
2. Wash separately the first time to minimize lint or color transfer.
3. Avoid bleach; consider skipping fabric softener on microfiber to preserve plush texture.
4. Tumble dry low or air dry to reduce heat damage and pilling.
5. Remove promptly and shake out to fluff fibers; do not iron.

For hooded or faux-fur trims, drying on low and fluffing by hand can help maintain loft. Results can vary by fabric and usage, so the care tag is your best guide.

Think about weight and layering rather than just thickness:

• Summer and warmer rooms: Lightweight fleece, flannel, or single-layer microfiber throws breathe better and feel cooler on the skin.
• Year-round: Microfiber plush (“silk touch”) balances softness with moderate warmth for most climates.
• Winter and chilly spaces: Sherpa-reverse or oversized plush styles add extra loft and insulation.

Layering a lighter throw over sheets or using a heavier sherpa-backed option on the sofa can help you adjust to changing temperatures. Room insulation, personal preference, and how you use the blanket (lounging vs. sleeping) will all play a role in comfort.

Absolutely—focus on fit, feel, and theme:

• Pick the right size: 46" x 60" or 50" x 60" works for most; choose oversized or twin/full if they love full coverage.
• Match their comfort: Microfiber plush for velvety softness, sherpa-reverse for extra-cozy winters, or fleece for lighter use.
• Choose a design they’ll love: Look for prints that reflect their favorite themes (space, holiday, or playful patterns).
• Check authenticity: Look for “officially licensed” in the description and clear trademarked imagery.
