A woobie is the military poncho liner, the quilted blanket people carried through long nights and didn't want to give back. Woobie Gear makes it as a blanket, a hoodie and a jacket, so you can give one to someone who misses theirs, or to someone who has never had one. Over 38,000 woobies sold so far, with 419 reviews averaging 4.8 stars.

For veterans
The Woobie Hoodie ($74.99) is the easy pick for a veteran: a quilted pullover built like the blanket they remember, with a softer, lighter nylon shell. Woodland and Tiger Stripe are the classic camo picks; Black and Ranger Green are the quiet choices. For a full zip, the Woobie Jacket ($84.99) uses the same lightweight insulating material as the blanket.
Gift buyers say it lands. Katie W.: “My spouse was Army for 20 years he absolutely loves this woobie!” A verified buyer who gave the Jacket at Christmas: “He loved his Woobie in the military and when he seen they came out with jackets he has wanted one since.”
For someone serving now
The Woobie Blanket 2.0 ($64.99) zips into a lightweight sleeping bag and packs small. Robbie R. bought one for his son in the Army, asked how he liked it, and heard that “he was able to take a nap in it while in the field.” Pick Ranger Green, Coyote Tan or Woodland.
For hunters
The Woobie Jacket ($84.99) in Coyote Tan or Woodland is roomy enough to wear under an outer layer and full-zip so they can vent on the walk in. Aidan F.: “Quiet when moving through brush and is non-restrictive on the arms/shoulders.” Add the Woobie Blanket for the stand or the truck.
For campers and hikers
The Woobie Jacket 2.0 ($99) has a closer fit, a zippered chest pocket and a cinch waist, and at $99 it ships free on its own. Pair it with the Woobie Poncho, which is waterproof and has grommets for tying it off as a quick shelter. For sleeping out, add the Blanket 2.0. More ideas in 16 ways to use a woobie.
For anyone who's always cold
The Woobie Blanket ($59.99) in Coyote Tan lives on the couch and travels in the car. For someone who'd rather wear it, the Hoodie in Black goes with everything. Expect it to get borrowed. Mark D. on his Jacket: “Just got mine a few days ago and my wife wears it more.”
For couples and families
A woobie rarely stays with one person. Plenty of buyers come back for a second one, because someone else in the house claimed the first. Ocampo on his Hoodie: “I bought another one for my wife since she loved mine so much.” A matching pair of Hoodies in Black and Ranger Green, or a Hoodie for one and a Blanket for the couch, covers the whole household.
For teens and grandkids
Teenagers like them too, especially in Tiger Stripe or Black. Barb D. told her grandson she only buys clothes for birthdays, and he answered, “Actually there is one thing I really want!” He got a Woobie Jacket for his 13th birthday. Measure a hoodie that fits them and check the size guide.
For a team, a crew or a club
Woobies make good group gifts for a crew, a hunting camp or a team. A verified buyer: “Bought as team gifts and very well received.” For larger orders, see wholesale ordering.
Stocking stuffer: Silkies
Silkies ($35.00) are short PT shorts in 100% four-way-stretch polyester, with an internal liner and a key pocket. They aren't the quilted woobie build, and they're a good laugh under the tree. They come in Woodland, Tiger Stripe, Black, Coyote Tan and Ranger Green. Size by waist: Small fits 27 to 29 inches, up to XXL at 35 to 37 inches. A verified buyer: “I got these for my hubby and he loves them, very comfortable, quality material.”
Gifts under $99, and free shipping at $99
Every woobie except the Jacket 2.0 costs under $99, and the Jacket 2.0 is exactly $99, so it ships free on its own. Free shipping kicks in on orders of $99 or more. A pair of Silkies with a Hoodie, a Jacket or a Blanket 2.0 clears the line. Most orders ship the next business day from Carrollton, Texas.
Sizing a gift without asking
For the Hoodie and the original Jacket, size down if they're between sizes. The Jacket 2.0 is cut truer to size. The sneaky way: borrow a hoodie or jacket that fits them, lay it flat, measure the back from collar to hem, shoulder to shoulder and shoulder to cuff, and match it to the size guide.
If you guess wrong, returns and exchanges are free for 30 days, as long as it's unworn with the tags on. Emily S.: “I originally ordered the wrong size for my dad’s birthday … my dad immediately ordered 2 more!!”
