Oodies are wearable, oversized hoodie blankets that you can throw on first thing and get your day started without the winter cold interrupting your morning. There's no need to take them off either, since they also pass for a hoodie (making them completely Zoom-meeting-friendly). They’re the ultimate cosy, laid back attire for a day at home, whether that’s a day of productivity or relaxing.
Featuring soft lining, a hood, and deep front pockets, oodies are a step up from pyjamas but blur the lines between sleepwear and lounge wear. Move seamless (and warmly) from the office chair to the dinner table to couch to bed.
Wear it on repeat through wintertime and you can even match with your kids or pals. Here are our top picks for the best Oodies and hooded blankets available...
