Have you tried one of these cosy loungewear essentials yet? Quality Blanket
One thing’s for sure, the UK's craze for blanket hoodies isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, the uber comfy style is only getting better in 2023, with fresh designs made especially for travel, and chic long-lined numbers guaranteed to up your loungewear game.
The best blanket hoodies are designed to keep you toasty and warm, no matter how chilly it gets outside. Our favourite styles are crafted from soft fleece and lined with fluffy sherpa, with cuffed sleeves and drawstring hoods to trap the heat. But there's a whole array of styles out there to suit every mood and budget – from chic cream versions at UGG to jazzy printed styles and bargain buys over on Amazon.
The secret to the super comfortable fit? It’s all down to the oversized shape of blanket hoodies. The best versions have generously wide sleeves, trapeze silhouettes or are poncho shaped to make them super easy to throw over anything: pyjamas, cashmere matching sets, you name it.
As well as investing in one for yourself, blanket hoodies also make fabulous gifts and they're usually one-size-fits-all, making it that bit easier to choose the right fit for your loved one.
Suitably convinced you need a blanket hoodie in your life – we thought as much. Keep scrolling to see our 19 favourite styles to shop now.
The lining of the famous Oodie is crafted from the softest sherpa while the outside is designed to be a touch more durable with flannel fleece. We also love the XXL pocket that is big enough to house everything you could possibly need for a cosy night on the sofa.
You can always rely on British lifestyle brand Crew Clothing for snuggly knits and everyday sweatshirts, but did you know it also creates gorgeous blanket hoodies?
Amazon has a whole load of blanket hoodies on offer, and is the best place to pick up one of these snuggly styles at a bargain price.
Crafted from fluffy sherpa, this grey blanket hoodie has two little front pockets and cuffed sleeves to ensure you're not completely engulfed by the cosy, oversized fit.
If you're worried about spillages, we advise opting for blanket hoodie in a darker shade – tea stains are far less likely to show up on this charcoal number than a cream coloured alternative, that's for sure.
We love the NY-brand Chelsea Peers for its printed satin pyjamas, so we're very happy to see the label has extended its offering to include blanket hoodies too. This baby-pink fleece style is available in size 6-16 on John Lewis' website.
The White Company's blanket hoodie is the definition of luxury. Crafted from super soft fleece, this style features an oversized kangaroo pocket at the front and a cosy hood to keep your neck warm.
M&S' poncho-style blanket hoodie is actually unisex; and there is a kids' version too, so you can kit out the whole family at once. This number is more blanket than hoodie, but the oversized shape means you can wear it over chunky jumpers or squeeze a hot water bottle underneath for the ultimate cosy night in.
If you're not into maxi, blanket styles, M&S' half-zip hoodie might be a better choice. With its dropped shoulder silhouette and relaxed fit, this style is seriously comfortable, but feels a little bit more put together than other teddy versions thanks to the gold hardware and borg fabric.
If you're looking for a more fashion forward blanket hoodie, UGG's snuggly cream iteration is as chic as it is cosy. This long-line version features a split hem for ease of movement, cuffed sleeves to keep you warm and a handy kangaroo pouch for your lounging must-haves.
With over 500 five-star reviews on its website, Dunelm's oversized hoodie is a real winner. And at just £16, it's a great bargain, too. We love the soft teddy fabric and generous kangaroo pocket that's big enough to fit all your essentials for a cosy night in – snacks, the remote control, we could go on. This style is also available in grey, pink, cream and khaki, if the charcoal black isn't for you.
And it's not just plain blanket hoodies that are reduced on Amazon right now. We love this playfully printed longline style – the cute polar bears are perfect for the upcoming festive season.
This blanket hoodie is super comfy but also lightweight, so you can wear it round the house, and not just on the sofa. We particularly like the quarter zip detailing and capacious kangaroo style pocket.
If you find blanket hoodies too hot, this thinner version is perfect for you. What's more, this style is currently 49% off in the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days.
If in doubt of where to buy the best blanket hoodies, Amazon is always a safe bet. The e-tailer has so many oversized options, there's truly something for everyone. If you're looking for an extra long iteration, Sienna's sherpa-lined style is just the ticket.
How sweet is this heart-printed blanket hoodie from Simply Be? We love the cosy sherpa-lined hood, contrast cuffs and pom-pom drawstring detailing.
We love Dreamscene for its cosy throws, irresistibly soft bedding and snuggly loungewear. The brand's got quite a few blanket hoodies on its website, but this tartan version with its contrast cuffs and sherpa-lined hood is our all time favourite.
ONY is another brand loved for its oversized blanket hoodies – and we can see why. The trapeze shape and slimmer-fitting top half ensures heat is trapped in, which makes this cream number even more cosy.
You can easily slip this blanket hoodie on and off thanks to its unique zip up design. It also comes in one size only, so is ideal for sending as a gift to a friend or loved one.
