This Sleep Hoodie Lets You Nap Anytime, Anywhere

Have you ever wanted to sleep on the go? Thanks to the Hypnos hoodie, you can now take a nap anytime, anywhere. 

The hoodie has an inflatable, ergonomic neck pillow so you can grab some shut-eye essentially wherever you are. You can currently purchase the hoodie via a Kickstarter campaign, which had goals to raise $30,000 by January 11, and has already beat that goal by several thousands of dollars, because who doesn’t want to take an instant nap? According to the Kickstarter, the hoodie is designed for “creatives, travelers, commuters and anybody who has a moment to take a rest.” 


The company tested the hoodie by wearing it for two years on cross-country flights, according to cofounder Josh Woodle. The inflatable pillow inserts are meant to be taken out before the hoodie is washed, and the company will replace them for $5 if customers have any difficulties. The pillows also inflate and deflate in 3 seconds, giving the wearer immediate access to a cozy nap. 

The target demographic for Hynpos hoodie? You guessed it, millennials, who probably need to sleep 24/7. 

The hoodie is priced at $89 for the relaxed fit pullover, $99 for the fitted silhouette, $119 for relaxed fit or fitted zip-up, and $139 for the woven jacket. They come with a lifetime warranty. 

If you’re constantly falling asleep in between class and work, this may be exactly what you need in your life right now. Napping is a necessary life skill you can put on your resume, right?
