plush

Soft, deep pile

Plush describes something soft, thick, and luxurious to the touch—fabric with a deep pile, or by extension, anything lavishly comfortable: plush carpeting, a plush hotel suite.

As a noun, plush is the fabric itself, similar to velvet but with a longer nap.

Plush toys are stuffed animals made from this soft material.
