Our story


How we got our start
Matador was born in 2014 with the creation of the Pocket Blanket when we stumbled on a trend of people sitting outside on their coats or lugging bulky blankets to the parks and beaches. What started as one innovative product became a passion for designing and developing high-quality equipment.
What makes our product unique
Our strengths in design, material technology, and construction give us an edge in developing innovative products that bring outdoor expertise to the pursuit of travel. We design our products to perform expertly in all conditions first and foremost, and we leave the bells and whistles behind.
Why we love what we do
Everything we make is founded on our obsession with travel and the outdoors. We design and test all of our equipment at our Boulder, CO headquarters to ensure we’re getting the high-caliber performance we need when we set out on our own objectives.

A little pricey, but it checks all the boxes! WORTH IT!
It lives in my everyday bag. Need a place to sit? I'm prepared! Haha Even if the ground is damp we're good to sit. Drinks or sauces spill It's okay, just throw it in the wash! Make sure you read the wash instructions though. I love that the carrying bag is attached so I don't have to worry about losing it, and I found it easy to fold! The stakes in each corner have a pocket so it won't randomly stick out and poke someone. (I was concerned about that at first.) The price tag kept me on the fence for a while, but I'm so happy I got it!

    This product is great. I haven't tested the tear resistant claims yet on jagged terrain but it works great when you summit a mountain or climb and want something waterproof to sit down on while you snack and rest at the top. It feel like it is made of the same material as a parachute, so it feels extremely durable. My favorite part is the stitches to fold it. When I first opened it at home to test it out I didn't there would be any way I would ever be able to fold it back up into the tiny backpack friendly size it came in. Seriously, I am terrible at that kind of thing and I was 100% certain I wouldn't be able to do it. Even my wife said, "I think maybe will will need to just roll this one up). However, if you just follow the stitches to fold it, you will quickly and easily get it shrunk right back up to the tiny little size it started at. This product is great!

    My sister introduced me to this during a day hike at Silver Falls State Park, Oregon. So many beautiful water falls there. I highly recommend it. Worth a destination stop. It's a developed trail system with quite a few people streaming from the developed parking areas. However, most people only go a short ways along the routes. Check it out online!

    Anyway. This super portable pocket blanket came in quite handy for impromptu sitting in otherwise wet environments. The misty waterfall spray damped all surfaces around.

    I'm going to buy another one now so that I have one in both my packs and am not caught without it in a time of need.

    (I should also say that prior to my sister introducing this item, I was perfectly happy with sitting on dirty or wet surfaces much of the time. But this makes it sooo much better.)

    I bring this with me everywhere. It's super tiny-- fits in my hand, and I can easily bring it in a small purse or have it take up almost no space in my hiking bag. Essentially, it's a camp/ tarp like "blanket" which keeps you from touching the ground, though you'll still feel the cold beneath it on chilly days, and the black can hold some heat when placed in direct beach sun. As with older versions, you need to be careful to anchor it otherwise it will fly away and it can be a bit of a pain to fold back up into the tiny case. But also-- it's SO CONVENIENT, it's a great back up for picnics/ beach days/ etc.

    I think this a great idea I'm just disappointed that one of the straps snapped that have the stake attached and it happened while it was in the ground so I can't even find it to try to fix it.

    Love this blanket for camping. We set it down when hanging by the campfire, used it as a layer outside our tent opening for taking off boots, and even under our sleeping bags to keep out moisture on a cold night. Very versatile and packs so small, that it's never a hassle to throw in a pack. We even used it for a lawn concert!. Well worth the money!

    This is a useful item that I keep in my biking backpack. It's a nice, lightweight ground cover and a good size. My only complaint is that it's a pain to get it back into the little bag it comes with. They should have designed the bag to be a bit larger, and maybe included a drawstring on the bag, or velcro. Maybe Matador 3.O?

    Bought this because my wife and I go to festivals, the beach, and camping regularly. Hadn't seen anything like it before (at least not this specifically) and figured why not. Used it a couple times now and it has been great! Easy carry (in my pocket) and perfect amount of space for the both of us. Whenever we're done, just shake it off and fold it right back up, simple as that!

    I love this blanket! We use this blanket when we stop on our dog walks. We stop for a coffee and lay the blanket out. It packs so small that its no trouble to bring it on every trip. The little pegs are great and keep the blanket pinned down. Its a think blanket but keeps the wet off your bum!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Altísima calidad y muy práctica: genial para un picnic, insuperable para senderismo.
    Reviewed in Spain on October 31, 2018
    La "manta de picnic" Matador es superlativa en todo, incluido el precio, único motivo por el que me planteaba ponerle 4 estrellas. Pero sabiendo eso, hay que valorar que:
    - Doblada es minúscula (cabe en el bolsillo de una camisa!)
    - Es muy, muy ligera
    - Completamente impermeable, algo muy útil en el campo, porque no te mojas, ni te manchas a través del tejido.
    - Aunque es muy fina, el tejido es resistente. No obstante, quitamos ramas y piedras, como harías con cualquier manta.
    - Se clava en la tierra (si es hierba, no tierra dura) con unas pequeñas piquetas que tiene en cada esquina, de modo que queda bien estirada. A mi hija le flipa lo de colocarla.
    - Si te cae un chaparrón, sin ser un poncho, te puede salvar de calarte hasta los huesos.
    - Puedes lavarla en el lavabo y se seca en minutos.

    Tenemos una manta grande, de tela, con engomado del otro lado, pero doblaba ocupa casi tanto como un aislante/esterilla para de saco de dormir. La ventaja es que más grande (la Matador es para dos y un niño pequeño a lo sumo) y más "rústica", con tela de cuadros. En todo lo demás, la Matador gana por goleada.

    Si la manta ocupa mucho, terminas llevando una bolsa enorme para que quepa con el resto de cosas. La Matador es un gustazo llevar porque la llevas en el bolsillo del pantalón, y en una mochila llevas el resto de cosas. Sientes que vas de picnic, no de mudanza. Y, sobre todo, si te gusta el senderismo, es PERFECTA cuando toca para a comer: se acabó lo de buscar una piedra o tronco seco para sentarte.

    Cierto que cuando la ves tan pequeña piensas que es muy cara (lo es!), pero como un chubasquero fino de Goretex: lo hace todo mejor que el normal, y por eso es más caro.
