Oh, so soft!! Both sides of the blanket feel great! I got two of these to be used on my front porch in the evenings and mornings as it's been getting colder the last few weeks. They work great! I got the 60 x 80 and they are BIG! I am 5''9' and I can curl up on a chair in it fully covered or I can stretch out and wrap it around myself and work it so that it covers me from about shoulders to feet. Already got a few leaves stuck in the sherpa part, but they came out pretty easily.
