If there is one good thing to have come out of the past few years, it’s the rise of the hooded blanket.
If you are still unacquainted with this fashion phenomenon, a hooded blanket (also known as a blanket hoodie or by the brand name Oodie) is a cross between a giant hoodie sweatshirt and, you guessed it, a blanket.
In fact, The Oodie describes itself as “a jumper crossed with a blanket crossed with a cloud”.
It’s lined with super-soft fleece and has an oversized pouch for storing your phone, the TV remote, or several family-sized bags of chips.
To say The Oodie has a cult following on social media would be an understatement — it has 700,000 fans across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
The beauty of a hooded blanket is its simplicity. There’s nothing more soothing than wrapping up in a fluffy blanket and making it wearable and with pockets is pure genius.
It was one of Best Of’s top sellers last year and there are hundreds of glowing reviews online, with people calling them “literally the best thing I’ve ever spent money on” and “the best thing that has ever happened to me”.
“If I’m being honest then this was one of the best decisions of my life, it is so warm,” one five star review reads.

WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO FOLD AN OODIE?
Here at Best Of, we really, really love Oodies, however, have to admit their thick fleecy material can make them a tad hard to store when you’re not wearing them (which is rare in winter TBH).
Fortunately we stumbled across this viral TikTok video by Oodie that breaks down the best way to fold your Oodie for storage — and it’s blown our minds.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to folding an Oodie:
1. Lay your Oodie out on a flat surface like a bed.
2. Fold the left side of your Oodie (including the arm section) inwards. Repeat on the right side.
3. Starting at the bottom, roll your Oodie as tightly as you can until you get to the hoodie. Then, simply tuck your rolled Oodie inside the hood to secure in place.
The video has racked up almost 40,000 views, with shoppers commenting they “needed this” hack.
“This is a skill I didn’t know I needed to learn, but I did,” another commented.
“Such a lifesaver,” one person wrote.
Read on for all the details on where to get your hands on your very own hooded blanket. After a discount? The Oodie is currently offering its hooded blankets for up to $25 off here. Simply use the code “WINTER” at the checkout.
BEST HOODED BLANKETS
There are plenty of hooded blankets popping up on all corners of the internet, but these are the ones we think you should get your hands on.
BEST OVERALL HOODED BLANKET
Teen & Adult Oodie, The Oodie, $84+
From tie-dyes to Harry Potter prints, the official Oodie store has it all. Their teen and adult sized Oodies are roughly the size of a 6XL hoodie, so they’ll fit most people aged 13 and up with ease. No matter your personal taste, there’s an Oodie that you’ll love – from plain block colours like pink and navy; to adorable prints featuring koalas or cats; to cartoonised versions of your favourite characters from Star Wars or Mickey Mouse.
To save you money, you can buy value-saving bundle packs like the Oodie Twin Pack ($148), the four-person Oodie Family Pack ($279), or the six-person Oodie Mega Pack ($359). You can even buy an Oodie Weighted Blanket Bundle ($159) that comes with – yep, you guessed it – a cosy and soothing weighted blanket along with your Oodie of choice.
The wide range of designs isn’t the only thing that puts Oodies a step above their competitors – they also offer free shipping and returns for all Australian orders, and a 100 per cent satisfaction guarantee. Their designs are made with soft flannel fleece outers and warm sherpa fleece inners, are 100 per cent cruelty-free, and additionally are machine washable.
BEST CHEAP HOODED BLANKET
We fell in love with this overzied hoodie’s cute lama print — plus the price makes it seriously affordable.
Made from a 100 per cent polyester fleece and with a hood, large overized front pocket and cuffed sleeves, this hooded blanket ticks all the boxes.
Available in three designs (black, blue or red), the Keluomanduo Oversized Hoodie Sweatshirt is just about the cheapest hooded blanket you’ll find on the internet. For that low price though, you’ll still find that it’s a great buy: it has micro fleece on the outside and super plush sherpa lining on the inside, which will maintain your perfect degree of toastiness. The kangaroo front pocket is as oversized as the hoodie itself – go ahead and store your phone, snacks, TV remote, and whatever else you might need as you mooch about at home. The one-size-fits-all design will suit the whole family, and as a bonus, it’s machine washable for easy cleaning

If I have my heating on at all, I get way too hot, but I don’t mind that because it means I get to bundle up in this while also saving money on heating.

If you’re experiencing anxiety or stress, it’s important to speak to your GP or a mental health professional about the options available that could assist you. Alternatively, please contact Lifeline by calling 13 11 14 or head here.
IS THE OODIE AUSTRALIAN?
The Oodie is indeed an Aussie brand, based in Adelaide, South Australia – so with each purchase you can be assured that you’re shopping local!
CAN I WASH MY OODIE?
If you bought a Oodie, you can absolutely throw it in the washing machine to make cleaning easy. Ensure you set a gentle cycle using mild detergents that are safe for wool or silks. For maximum durability, you should wash your Oodie by hand. It’s also important to know that Oodies are air-dry only – don’t you go throwing yours in the tumble dryer!
If you buy a hooded blanket from another brand, make sure to read the care instructions on the label for the specific directions.
ARE OODIES ONE SIZE FITS ALL?
Oodies are only available in two sizes: adults or kids. The adult sized Oodies, suitable for those aged 13 and up are around the size of a 6XL hoodie, whereas kids Oodies are ideal for three to 13 year olds. If you’re particularly tall, you may need to pair them with some trackies for modesty, otherwise you can happily strut around all winter long wearing nothing but your Oodie!
