NorSari was created in Northfield, Minnesota. One frigid December morning, Gwen Daniels, grabbed a blanket off the couch and wrapped it around her waist to stay warm as she headed out to face the day. Instantly, she had an idea she wanted to share with others. She worked to create an adjustable wrap that would secure easily over any type of clothing for an added layer of warmth that everyone could wear. They still make a heritage limited-edition handmade NorSaris in Northfield, Minnesota as well as their traditional NorSari and SunSari's.  - The SunSari has a performance rubber shell that deters the water and protects from the sun, lined with a 100% cotton soft terrycloth that is of pool towel quality.
