What is the sizing like? I'm a size 18 so and all the different ones seem to be one size only. Feel like it won't be big enough to be comfy seen as all the models are size 6. Can't find any plus sized ones.

My mum has one, and she is around a size 18. It fits her fine. I have one too. They are big.

Dd has one from Costco (so not the name Oodie, but essentially identical). We are both 5'8", but she is a size 12 and I am a size 20. It fits both of us very well. She sits cross-legged inside it, whereas I sit with my feet drawn up next to me and it still covers them.

My 6ft 4 19-stone DH has one!

They’re based on an adult 6xl.

Yours have some plus sized ones but they’re not as thick as the original ones. I found the original ones a bit tight round my neck more than anything but that could be because I’m funny about having things up round my neck - I’m a size 18/20.

KangarooKenny · 05/11/2022 18:03

I’m a 16 and it’s big on me.

Batshittery · 05/11/2022 18:06

The original Oodie is massive and will easily fit a size 18. I have one and it's lovely and warm

A580Hojas · 05/11/2022 18:10

I'm wearing one now. Size 16 and it absolutely swamps me!

BobbyBobbyBobby · 05/11/2022 18:11

Cheap alternative -

Yup I'm a size 18/20 and my sons comes below the knee and is lovely and cosy.

justasoul · 05/11/2022 18:22

I have an Amazon alternative and it fits fine both me at size 18 and DD who is a child size 12-13/adult size 4.

CallMeBubbleDarling · 05/11/2022 18:24

I bought mine when I was a size 22. More than roomy enough

Jules912 · 05/11/2022 18:25

I'm a size 14/16 and mine swamps me. In fact I accidentally put on DS's child size one once and it fit!

WindowsSmindows · 05/11/2022 18:27

So does anyone have one and it's a size 8?
I was thinking of ordering one but I'm thinking now it might be too big?

ZaZathecat · 05/11/2022 18:33

They are meant to be enormous so it doesn't matter if you're size 8. I'm a small 10 and live the volume of it, I can sit with my knees up inside it and keep really warm!

Newnamefor2021 · 05/11/2022 18:46

Brilliant. Thank you all!

I have one and am a size 18 and there is plenty of room in it, easily fits me with ample to spare.

I got mine at size 20. They are 5xl, honestly, it'll still be huge on you.

You'll love it!

My daughter has one. It's huge on her. But that's how it's meant to be.

Do you have a Primark near you? You could go and try on one of theirs to see what you think before you order.

The oodie is really thick though, I have both an oodie and a kuddly. The kuddly is a bit thinner and a bit more 'easy to wear', so that might be a good option for you? Still nice and warm.

I’m a size 8-10. It’s big, but it’s meant to be big. I wear mine over the top of my clothes all the time. I’m very attached to it. Hate putting it in the wash!😄

www.dunelm.com/product/printed-rainbow-fleece-oversized-blanket-hoodie-1000203733?defaultSkuId=30770991 I have this one and it's massive! I'm a 16-18 for reference

KenAdams · 06/11/2022 11:30

I'm having a similar dilemma. DD is 10 but a beanpole so I'm worried the kids will be too short and the adults will be too wide!
