Our verdict
Mumsnet users, their teens and tweens absolutely love an Oodie. They're buttery soft, pleasingly oversized and so gosh darn warm you can even turn your central heating down. However, not everyone wants to wear an enormous hoodie, even just around the house, so we put the Oodie Dressing Gown through its paces, to see if it's a viable and, dare we say it, more grown-up alternative to the iconic blanket hoodie.
Having been a dedicated dressing gown fan for my whole life, I really liked the length and warmth of the Oodie robe. It has lots of thoughtful touches, like stretchy cuffs to keep draughts out, and a button to keep the belt centred. There's a generous hood and the same soft, sherpa lining you'll find in an Original Oodie.
Worn over my WFH clothes or my pyjamas, the dressing gown is very warm - comparable to a winter coat - and warmer than the cotton towelling men's dressing gown I usually wear at home.
One thing I didn't love about the Oodie dressing gown is the polyester fabric. While it's extremely soft and warm, it's not as absorbent or as pleasant against my skin as natural fabrics like the M&S Pure Cotton Towelling Dressing Gown I have.
When compared to the Original Oodie, the fabric on the dressing gown is less structured and thinner - which to me is a good thing, as I find blanket hoodies to be too warm and restrictive.
