How it compares to other cozy throws

• Unlike Simons Maison's solid, checkers, faux-fur, and faux-mohair throws that rely on texture and color, the Western throw is the only one that features a figurative design — horses, boots, and hats on a patterned ecru ground — making it a targeted pick for lovers of equestrian or rustic Americana decor.
• The Western throw matches the 51" x 63" (130 x 160 cm) footprint of Simons Maison's Solid and Faux-fur throws, so you're not giving up any coverage by choosing the thematic design — it's the same generous lap-and-drape size as the rest of the house-brand line.
• At its regular $35 CAD, the Western throw sits well above the $19.99 Solid option; at the current $24.95 sale price, the premium for the patterned design shrinks to just $5, making it a more compelling upsell for buyers who originally budgeted for a basic solid fleece.
• While natural wool throws like the Chandler 4 Corners Western design ($159 USD, handcrafted in India) require line drying to avoid shrinkage, this recycled fleece throw can be tumble dried on low heat, significantly lowering the maintenance burden for sofa throws that see frequent use or occasional spills.
• This throw is made from 100% post-consumer recycled polyester (plastic bottles), a specification that distinguishes it from many budget fleece throws that use virgin polyester; at $24.95 it delivers eco-conscious value without a green premium, pairing sustainability with the Western motif.
• At $24.95 CAD, the Western Fleece Throw commands a $5–10 premium over Simons Maison's solid high-pile and basic high-pile fleece throws ($14.99–19.99), but sits far below the $90 faux-fur option; it occupies the sweet spot for a patterned, themed throw at an everyday decorative price.

Eco credentials of recycled polyester fleece

• Virgin polyester production consumes roughly 1.5 kg of crude oil per kilogram of fiber; by using 100% post-consumer recycled feedstock, this throw bypasses that petroleum extraction entirely, directly reducing demand for fossil resources.
• Producing recycled polyester uses 45–85% less energy than virgin polyester, according to life cycle assessments reviewed by Periyasamy & Militky, meaning this throw carries a substantially lower embedded energy load compared to an equivalent virgin-polyester blanket.
• Across multiple independent studies, recycled polyester emits 30–60% fewer greenhouse gases than virgin polyester, with conservative estimates around 21% and more recent Chinese staple-fiber data showing up to 60% reduction — a climate-impact advantage that accrues from the first wash to the day it leaves the home.
• Nearly all recycled polyester — about 98% — is derived from post-consumer PET plastic bottles, so this throw directly participates in a circular economy that turns single-use packaging into a durable, long-life textile, keeping those bottles out of landfills and oceans.
