Hooded Blankets

Snuggle Into a Hooded Blanket From Spotlight

The ultimate in wearable comfort, Spotlight's hooded blankets are warm, fluffy and light enough to wear all day, every day! Our adult hooded blankets (also known as blanket hoodies) come in a range of stylish colours like grey, pink, charcoal and more. All have soft, fuzzy interiors with fluffy interiors for divine comfort and warmth.

What Is a Hooded Blanket?

A hooded blanket is an oversized wearable blanket with a deep hood, sleeves and usually a large front pouch pocket. You may also see these cosy layers be called a blanket hoodie, wearable blanket, hooded sherpa, snuggle blanket or oversized blanket hoodie.

Basically, it combines the warmth of a soft blanket with the function of a jumper. The roomy shape traps warm air around your body while still giving you space to move. Long sleeves keep your arms covered, and the deep hood shields your head and neck from cool drafts. It's usually made of sherpa, fleece, or faux fur.

Unlike a throw, these wearable blankets stay on your body as you walk around. They also have a looser, blanket-like shape than a dressing gown. And they do not have separate legs like a onesie or need to fit closely around your body.

One Size Fits All With Spotlight's Hooded Blankets

Our roomy hooded blankets are designed to be one size fits all, with extra room in the shoulders, arms and torso, making them a great fit for folks of all sizes. And don't worry - even though there's a lot of material, our blanket hoodies are light enough that you can easily wear them all day if needed!

FAQs

What is a hooded blanket?

A hooded blanket is a large, wearable blanket with sleeves, a hood and sometimes a large central pocket in the front for the wearer's hands. Hooded blankets have a soft, fuzzy outer layer and a fluffy interior designed to be comfortable over the whole body, and are made to feel oversized when worn.

How do I clean my hooded blanket?

Set your machine to a gentle cycle with cool water - 30°C is as high as you should go - with a small amount of mild detergent. Avid excessive amounts of detergent and additives like fabric softener, as these can stick to the fibres of your hooded blanket and actually make it feel less soft. Hooded blankets can be spun dry, but avoid an actual heated drying cycle - instead, shake out your blanket hoodie and line dry outdoors for the best results.

Are hooded blankets better than blankets for warmth?

While both regular blankets and hooded blankets are excellent at keeping you warm, an adult hooded blanket has a few advantages. It completely encircles your body, keeping you warm at all angles, and is easy to take with you around the house, ensuring you are warm when you're working, cooking, cleaning or just relaxing. Much easier to keep in place than a blanket or throw!

Are hooded blankets suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, a hooded blanket can be handy for camping, outdoor movie nights or watching sport on a cold day. Keep it dry where possible and keep the fabric away from open flames, heaters and other direct heat sources.

Are hooded blankets machine washable?

Many hooded blankets can be machine washed, but care instructions vary by fabric and product. Always check the care label first. A gentle cycle and mild detergent may suit many sherpa, fleece and faux fur styles.

Do hooded blankets shrink?

Some fabrics can change shape or texture if exposed to high washing or drying temperatures. Following the care label and avoiding unnecessary heat can help your hooded blanket keep its fit and feel.

Are hooded blankets safe for kids?

Kids' hooded blankets can be a cosy layer for relaxing at home. Choose a product made for children, check that the size allows comfortable movement and follow the product care and safety information. Younger children should also have suitable adult supervision.
