Snuggle Hoodies & Oversized Blanket Hoodies

Snuggle hoodie, blanket hoodie, oversized fluffy hoodie, snuggie: they all mean the same thing, a giant fleece hoodie you wear like a wearable blanket. It is cut far bigger than a normal hoodie, it has a hood for when the room is genuinely cold, and it goes on over whatever you are already wearing rather than replacing it.

Ours are 100% polyester fleece in one size that fits most people, at £16 each. There are five designs and they are all prints rather than plain colours: Bumble Bees, Kitties, Poochies, Skater Dog and Fast Food. If you want the same softness on the bed rather than on you, our fluffy bedding is the same idea in duvet set form.

Honestly, more than you expect. A snuggle hoodie earns its keep on the sofa in the evening, on a cold morning before the heating kicks in, and on the sort of day where getting dressed properly is off the table. Because it goes over your clothes rather than replacing them, it also works as an extra layer while you are working at home or reading in a chilly room.

They make good presents too, which is most of why people buy them in autumn. One size fits most takes the guesswork out, £16 is an easy price for a stocking filler or a secret santa, and the print designs mean you can pick something that actually suits the person. Dog people get the Poochies or Skater Dog, cat people get the Kitties, and Fast Food is for whoever in your family thinks they are funny.

What size are your snuggle hoodies?

They come in one size that fits most adults. They are meant to be oversized and roomy, so there is plenty of length and the sleeves are generous. There is no size choice to make at checkout.

How much is a snuggle hoodie?

£16 for any of the five designs. Free UK delivery on orders over £50, so most people add a throw or a duvet set to reach it.

What are they made of?

100% polyester fleece, soft on both sides. It is warm straight away rather than needing to heat up, which is why a fleece hoodie beats a cotton one on a cold evening.

How do I wash a snuggle hoodie?

Machine wash cool on a gentle cycle and skip the fabric conditioner, which flattens the fleece. Tumble dry low or hang it up to dry, then give it a shake to bring the fluff back.

Can you wear a blanket hoodie outside?

You can, and people do for the school run or taking the bin out, but it is not waterproof or windproof. It is built for indoors, so treat outdoor use as a bonus rather than the plan.

Is it the same thing as a snuggie?

Near enough. A snuggie is usually a blanket with sleeves, while a blanket hoodie is a proper hoodie shape with a hood, so it stays put when you stand up. Same warmth, less faffing.
