The ‘outdoor Oodie’ is currently on sale and is perfect for when you want to be comfortable and snug while walking the dog, but not quite ready for pyjamas in public
The beloved snug brand Oodie, famed for its indoor hooded blankets, has now launched a game-changer for outdoor comfort. The ‘outdoor Oodie’ is tailored for those drizzly mornings and pledges to deliver ‘warmth and comfort’ while ensuring you stay cosy and dry.
I’ve been on the hunt for a comfy coat for those mornings when I just want to roll out of bed and take the dog for a walk, and this one ticks all the boxes. It comes with a hood for added warmth and large pockets perfect for stashing all your canine companion’s needs like treats, toys, and even an extra lead.
‘This 3-in-1 coat is the best warm winter jacket I own – it even comes with an extra fleece’
Waterproof dryrobe that keeps wearers dry even after hours in the rain is this season’s must-have
Just like the original Oodie hooded blanket, the Outdoor Oodie boasts a variety of fun prints. Initially retailing at £89, the cuddly coat is currently in the clearance sale for £49, available in sizes S-L and XL-OOD.
The outdoor Oodie also sports a spacious hood for additional warmth and comfort, alongside big side pockets for your phone, snacks, drinks, and more. I’ve found it ideal for wearing during the unpredictable weather, as you never know when a downpour might hit.
On the Oodie website, the full product description states: “The outdoor Oodie features a durable and water repellent outer nylon layer. The Nylon layer includes a subtle and stylish quilt pattern that’s reminiscent of a puffer jacket. The Outdoor Oodie is designed to keep you warm and dry even when the weather is miserable.”
The moment I donned this Oodie, I was taken aback by its incredible softness. It provided warmth without being overly hot, essentially feeling like a wearable duvet, reports the Liverpool Echo..
For a brisk walk, comfort is key and this outdoor Oodie delivered that, while also keeping me dry. Initially, I had reservations about looking silly in public with the Oodie, but despite its size, it simply resembled an oversized coat.
If you’re feeling bold, you could sport the coat with the fleece side visible, though I wasn’t quite ready to flaunt the greyhound zip-through print in public. The hood was spacious, and the pockets were perfect for stashing snacks and personal items.
As a dog walker, I’d highly recommend giving the outdoor Oodie a try. It’s incredibly soft, comfortable, and convenient to just throw on.
Elsewhere, If you’re in the market for a new waterproof jacket, Amazon shoppers have been praising the Dryrobe Advance Waterproof Changing Robe, £165, for how warm and dry it keeps them no matter what the weather’s doing. Although designed to help with changing out of clothes or wetsuits after a dip in the water, savvy shoppers have taken to wearing theirs at any time of the day for things like dog walking and hiking to keep them dry.
