Our team worked with some of the top inflatable engineers to create an original. By actually getting some sleep so we even have a chance to dream, that is. The Aros Sleep Hoodie: An everyday hoodie that inflates for sleep on the go. Check out their video for more information and join me in crossing fingers that the Kickstarter is successful and our dreams might come true. Naturally, the hoodie isn’t cheap with the base model starting at $89, but genius costs money and this might be well worth the expense. This item seems a bit gimmicky, but could certainly come in handy if you find yourself with a precious few minutes to snooze and no pillow in sight. Parenthood is synonymous with sleepy and most of us would do anything to grab a little nap here and there. Show me a parent who hasn’t experienced periods of sleeplessness due to a teething baby, a scared preschooler, a fussy toddler or a teen who won’t obey their curfew.

Woodle, you’re missing out by not pushing your product on parents. On an airplane and your infant is asleep in your lap making it impossible to move in any way? The Hypnos hoodie has your back. Watching TV with your sprouts and there’s no room on the couch for you to lie down? Inflate your pillow, relax and nap in your own personal heaven. We’re sure millennials get tired and that work and leisure travel is exhausting but there’s no demographic on earth more pitifully desperate for sleep at all costs than parents.Ĭan you imagine all the ways parents could make a sleep hoodie part of their everyday lives? Stuck at the pediatrician’s office after being up all night with a croupy toddler? Sit back for five glorious minutes and let your magical, invisible neck pillow cushion you into dreamy-dream land. Your target demographic should totally be parents. According to Refinery29, the hood is equipped with an inflatable, ergonomic neck pillow that supports the wearer if they want to snooze on the go.Ĭo-founder Josh Woodle says the hoodie is aimed at globe-trotting millennials and those partaking in “new travel culture” but sorry, Josh. From its website, we see the hoodie is marketed as something to make napping easier when the wearer is traveling. The Hypnos hoodie is currently part of a Kickstarter campaign to produce the item for the eager masses - it’s less than $3,000 short of its $30,00 funding goal with almost two weeks left on the campaign. Enter the Hypnos hoodie: a garment for all tired parents who have no shits left to give and will sleep anywhere they possibly can.

It deflates pretty quickly, as well, the company says, and the pillow can be removed from the hoodie if you don't want your head resting against deflated plastic.Īs you'd expect, the Kickstarter campaign has various tiers of support.
