Introducing the Super Gorilla Hug
Doshisha Corporation, based in Osaka, is set to release its new product, the "Super Gorilla Hug," on November 20, 2025. This innovative 3-way blanket features an unique 8-layer structure designed for heat generation, insulation, and heat retention. It will be available through their official online store, Doshisha Marche, and various retail outlets.
Development Background
The Super Gorilla Hug blanket is designed to provide a cozy embrace reminiscent of being wrapped in the arms of a super gorilla. This product is part of the newly launched "Gorilla Relax" series, which expands on the success of the "Gorilla Hyperpower Series," a line of health and beauty appliances. The inspiration behind this blanket was to create a practical relaxation object that offers a substantial level of warmth, perfect for everyday use.
Product Features
Unique 8-Layer Structure
The Super Gorilla Hug comprises a soft, skin-friendly exterior overlaid with aluminum fabric and heat-retaining fibers. This is cleverly constructed in an 8-layer format that not only provides substantial warmth but also enhances breathability. Its comforting weight hugs the body, capturing warm air and delivering a soothing sensation akin to a giant gorilla's warm embrace.
Versatile 3-Way Usage
This blanket isn't just for snuggling. It can be used in three different ways: as a lap blanket, a shoulder shawl, or even as a cozy under-blanket during naps. The convenient button system on the long edge allows for easy conversion to a shoulder wrap, which facilitates comfortable usage during desk work or house chores. This makes the Super Gorilla Hug highly adaptable to various life scenarios, whether at home or on the go.
Cute Gorilla Name Tag
Incorporating playful design elements, the blanket features a charming gorilla name tag as a distinctive detail, combining cuteness with functionality.
Illustrated Packaging
The packaging showcases a whimsical design of a pajama-clad super gorilla embracing a human from behind, giving a heartfelt nod to the product's warmth and comfort.
Overview of the Gorilla Series
The "Gorilla Series" consists of three distinct lines. The first is the "Gorilla Hyperpower Series," which includes health and beauty appliances. The second line, "Gorilla Recommended Projects," focuses on practical everyday goods, with a fun twist involving the characters of "Older Brother Gorilla" and "Younger Brother Gorilla." The latest addition, the "Gorilla Relax" series, includes comfort products such as pillows and blankets inspired by the relaxed demeanor of "Older Brother Gorilla" in pajama wear.
As the series continues to evolve, Doshisha's Gorilla Relax aims to provide a comforting touch to daily life with innovative new products.
