Five Things You Probs Didn’t Know About The Oodie

How much do you know about the iconic brand (and our latest student deal)? 💅🏼

This article is presented in partnership with The Oodie.

There's no doubt you've dreamt of snuggling up in the cosiest clothing around – The Oodie.

The iconic brand is known for their oversized, wearable blankets that come in loads of awesome designs.

The best part? We have an awesome deal with The Oodie so you can save on your next purchase!

So how much do you actually know about The Oodie brand?... Apart from the fact they make super cute products, of course.

1. The Oodie was created by an Aussie guy in his early 20s.

The founder of The Oodie is Adelaide-born Davie Fogarty.

You might recognise Davie from this season of Shark Tank – one of the youngest-ever sharks, according to 7NEWS!

When Davie discovered the benefits of weighted blankets, he launched the business Calming Blankets – raking in $1.5 million in profit in its first year.

The Oodie was launched in 2018, and the rest is history.

2. The Oodie has products for every season.

When you think of The Oodie, the idea of keeping warm and cuddly on those cold winter months might first come to mind.

But, what if we told you The Oodie has a range of products that can keep you comfy all year round?

On those hot summer nights, you can lounge in their super soft Sleep Tees – they’re oversized, stretchy, and have nifty side pockets to store the essentials… like snacks.

The Oodie also has a range of accessories like weighted blankets, socks, slippers (and more).

3. You can recycle your pre-loved Oodie.

We’re obsessed hearing about environmentally friendly brands, and The Oodie has teamed up with a company that helps to do just that.

Upparel is an Aussie and New Zealand company that will keep your pre-loved Oodie out of landfill in three ways;

• Reuse - if your item is in good condition, Upparel will donate it to one of their charity partners.
• Upcycle – is your Oodie is looking a little worse for wear? Upparel work with a recycling partner to turn it into something new.
• Recycle – if the product you’re recycling is damaged, it can be used to create materials like yarn, insulation or stuffing.

The Oodie does even more amazing work behind the scenes to help the environment and the community, which you can read about here.

4.     The Oodie has collabed with your fave brands.

With a massive range of designs, The Oodie really does have something for everyone.

After something low-key? They’ve got you covered with single colour and tie-dye designs.
