Admittedly, it doesn't match the quality or pattern choice that you get with an Oodie, but the Sienna is a fantastic alternative without the eye-watering price tag. It would make a great Christmas gift too, especially alongside a pair of the best women's slippers. We did find this one to be ever so slightly looser around the bottom, letting the odd autumnal draft in – but on the plus side Snuggly says theirs can be tumble dried on a low heat, unlike Oodie’s. Bear Spirit Horn Button Long Fleece Windbreaker, Native American 3D All Over Printed Hooded CLoak For Men Women,Native American Indian Cloak Perfect for winter nights in, the Sienna is an affordable oversized blanket hoodie that comes in a generous one-size-fits-all design. We found the Sienna super cosy to wear; the Sherpa fleece lining made it extra comfortable and toasty.

It comes in just one colour, ivory, in keeping with The White Company’s typical neutral palette – very Cameron Diaz in The Holiday, we feel. Long and luxurious, we love this one’s teddy fabric, which is very lightweight and soft as air but surprisingly very warm and toasty, and we like that this one comes in multiple sizes.Part poncho and part blanket, it can be fastened together at the front, swung over your shoulder, or simply laid flat over your body, and it heats up gently to warm the top half of your body. Super Soft and Cozy - Animal Print Hooded Blanket - Stay warm and Frisky Fleece or Sherpa Lined - Made in USA It probably goes without saying that theirs is incredibly soft and cosy. The inner fleece is as soft as cotton wool while the outer feels silky, meaning that, despite its size, it didn’t actually feel as bulky to wear as some of the others.

Extra large, extra warm and extra snuggly, Kudd.ly’s hoodie is like wearing a bear hug and is so big you’ll be able to curl your entire body up inside. Longer than most, cushiony soft and cosy without being too bulky, this one from UK-made brand Onesnug gets a big thumbs up from us.OVERSIZED HOODIE BEAR, Teddy Bear Sweater Blanket, Cozy Fleece Pullover, Big Hoodie with Bears, Sweater, Sweet Bears

For us, though, Oodie just takes the top spot for keeping the body at the perfect temperature and for its vast range of designs and viral fame. Are hooded blankets worth it?

It’s also great value, and will certainly keep you warm this winter. It’s not the warmest one we tried (think late autumn chills rather than depths-of-winter, below-freezing temperatures) but we’d probably say this was the most practical, while this pale pink colour we chose (prettier in real life than our phone camera could capture) is about as ‘feminine’ as one of these items could get.As the name suggests, the best hooded blankets sit somewhere between a giant wearable hoodie and a cosy throw.
