Snuggie

The Snuggie is the iconic blanket with sleeves that took the world by storm in the late 2000s. It was pitched as the ultimate solution for staying warm while keeping your hands free to read, use the remote, or sip cocoa. Cozy, right?

Well, yes and no. While undeniably soft and convenient, the Snuggie looked more like a cult robe than leisurewear. People tripped over its oversized fit, and wearing it outdoors (as the ad suggested) drew plenty of confused stares. Still, its legacy lives on—equal parts comfort item and pop-culture punchline.
