Snuggie is a brand of wearable blanket with sleeves that was popularized in the late 2000s through infomercials and commercials. The product is meant to provide warmth and comfort while allowing the wearer to still use their hands.
Snuggie was invented by Scott Boilen, CEO of the Allstar Marketing Group, in Brookstone in 2008.
Snuggies were initially marketed through infomercials and became a viral sensation, leading to parodies and widespread popularity.
Since its initial success, Snuggie has released various iterations of the original product, including a footed version and a Snuggie for dogs.
Snuggie has also faced criticisms for its functionality and style, with some people comparing it to a backwards robe.
