Rusty the Fox

Meet Rusty — 17.7 inches of rust-red calm, and the most striking thing on the shelf.

Most weighted plush come in browns, greys and creams. Rusty does not. The deep fox-red coat is what makes people pick it up, and the weight is what makes them keep it: enough to settle across a lap or a chest and stay there, without ever feeling like a burden.

The weight is distributed through the body rather than pooled in the base, so Rusty drapes when you lie down instead of bunching into a lump. The pile is soft but dense — the kind that holds its shape after being squashed under an arm all evening.

Features

• Evenly distributed weighted fill through the body and tail
• 17.7 in (45 cm) — sized for a lap, a chest, or the crook of an arm
• Deep rust-red plush with a cream-tipped tail and chest
• Dense, soft pile that recovers its shape after use
• Safety-rated eyes, no small detachable parts

Benefits

• Grounding pressure. The steady, even weight of a weighted companion is easier to settle under than a loose plush toy.
• Drapes rather than sits. Distributed fill means it moulds to you instead of perching on top.
• Not a nursery toy. The colour and proportions suit an adult bedroom or a sofa as easily as a child's bed.
• Built to be handled. Dense stitching throughout stands up to daily use.
