The 5pound stuff oodie

I have massive regret I didn’t order a Corgi oodie before they went out of stock. If anyone ordered one and doesn’t want it, I’d happily buy it from you if you can post to Leeds.

I ordered the otter one. It came vacuum wrapped in plastic and in an official bag. I haven't opened it fully as it's a gift but my daughter has a real Oodie that I bought direct and that arrived in exactly the same way so I'm fairly sure it's the real deal.

I've ordered this one too! Ordered otter/cat and a plain grey one previously. Otter defo a Oodie. All labels still on and so much thicker than the grey huggle one. Ordered the orange one and hoping it's another Oodie. Haven't worn the otter one yet as may gift it as it looks like it's a genuine one. Will update when the orange one arrives!!

Oooh, yes, please do update. I hesitated buying it as the cats print looks upside down in the picture but figured for the price, and it being for me and I'll only be wearing it at home, it won't matter, as long as it keeps me warm....... so took the plunge (I'm such a sheep 🐑 following everyone on the bargains thread). Not sure I can wear it whilst on work virtual meetings though unless I turn the camera off 🤣 if this one is good, I'll keep an eye out for a plain dark colour one I can wear on work virtual meetings.

If the washing care labels are cut out, what wash cycle are you putting them on?

Karatechopp · 13/11/2022 19:49

I ordered 2 otter and a dark grey and all came with oodies branding/ bag etc

Gumreduction · 14/11/2022 06:57

Drop oodie a line
and they will confirm if genuine or not

That's good, thanks, hopefully mine still has it in too.

I think someone in the bargain thread did this last time around and Oodie replied saying they do send overstock and seconds to other companies to sell on

Received an otter/cat today all in Oodie packaging with the grey bag. Took it out of the vacuum bag(which has Oodie text on it) and the ribbon and all looks good .....recipient will be very happy (no horrible smell either) 😀

Threeboysandadog · 14/11/2022 12:32

I bought a dark blue one. It came in black plastic (bin bag) stuff. Tags had been cut off. I don’t have an Oodie to compare with but it is very thick and soft, looks good quality and I’m happy with it. I’m waiting for an avocado and the dark green dog one and I also ordered the mens Christmas pyjamas for ds3 16. I will report back when they arrive (hopefully when dh is out)!

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 13/11/2022 16:57

I don't have a real oodie to compare to, but would be interested in seeing the washing tags from a real one to see how mine compare.
Mine has a cut off tag on the pocket, a cut off tag on the neckline (both look like the Oodie tags) and some of the washing tags have also been removed.

I wasn't expecting to receive a real Oodie but am very happy with the thickness, whatever brand it really is.

My ds has a navy OODIE he got a couple of years ago, I got one off 5poundstuff, and they are absolutely identical.
.. I’m the world’s greatest cynic with stuff like this and copies, but I’d pretty much stale my mortgage on it being absolutely genuine

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 14/11/2022 12:52

I've had a reply from customer services about the glue on my hoodie due to it being sealed into the plastic.
They were surprisingly quick to respond, very apologetic and happy to sort the issue.

I just wish my first order would bloody turn up. It will be a week tomorrow since it was dispatched 😣.

I wouldn't. Good fakes

My cat/otter Oodie arrived today in the grey Oodie bag with all Oodie labels intact. Lovely quality and no smell, if it's a fake then it's a very good one either way dd will be delighted. I for one, feel I got a very good buy for what I paid as well.

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 14/11/2022 13:47

@Justhereforthechristmasthreads No refunds so far. I assumed it's because I ordered other stuff too (some books for my toddler and a dress up outfit).
The issue could be Royal Mail rather than 5poundstuff. They're very hit and miss here as there's only 5 houses and they find it too much effort to deliver more than a couple of times a week max.

hiredandsqueak · 14/11/2022 14:26

@PissedOffNeighbour22 mine that arrived today was ordered on 8th and dispatched on 9th so think the issue is with Royal Mail. There were no deliveries around here Thursday, Friday or Saturday, I think what with strikes, illness and staff shortages RM appear to be struggling with increased Christmas deliveries.

Comefromaway · 14/11/2022 14:32

I got the dark grey, cat and avocado ones. Two had all the tags and wrappings on, one had the tags cut off. I think they are genuine but "seconds"

polmnlj · 14/11/2022 14:34

My otter one had small hole in Sherpa. Dd noticed when wearing it. It was easy to fix.

TheTeddyBears · 14/11/2022 14:42

The koala bear ones are back in stock. I've just ordered 1 was thinking of buying 2 but thought I would see how it was first. So this one is prob for me.

Yalz · 14/11/2022 14:59

My charcoal grey hoodie arrived today.

It felt like an individual game of pass the parcel. Outer sealed grey posting bag from the web shop. Then a sealed plastic bag with “I’m warm, soft, playful, cuddly and super cosy” on it. Next a grey fabric drawstring bag. Finally a sealed clear plastic bag which mentions “Oodie” four times on a notice about vacuum sealing. Inside I can see grey fleece, with a cardboard “The Oodie” label attached to it and ribbon round it.

If it’s not a real Oodie someone is trying very hard to make it look like one.

Beingacatbed · 14/11/2022 15:41

Have had really good customer service regarding my damaged panda one so would be happy to shop with them again despite the issues. Wish the grey one i got had been a better one though. Luck of the drawer with them i guess.

I've just had a look at the koala one, so that should be a real oodie? Sorry for sounding stupid 🙈

DontSuitAJumpsuit · 14/11/2022 16:24

I ordered 2 from the site around 6 weeks ago, they both have cut Primark labels in them. That said, they are very thick and warm and were clearly new and in perfect condition.

I'm happy enough for £12.99 but I had hoped for one of the big brands.
