Is Comfrt Worth the Hype? An Unbiased Review
Hello my lovely readers and welcome back to another installment of Karin tries something and then tells you about it! 😛.
Okay. It happened.
I got sucked in. I’ll admit it. My phone has been listening to me…
total tangent here, but I’m not a conspiracy theorist at all, BUT it freaks me out that my phone clearly listens to me and then sends me targeted ads based on what I’ve said in conversation to the people around me so I will never, EVER get an Alexa or anything else like that… I’d feel like I was being watched all of the time. 😂
AAAAAND I’m only one minute into this and I’m already distracted with the one conspiracy theory I believe in… let’s get back to the point!
My phone clearly knows about all of my chronic illness lounge induced needs and has been hitting me hard with the Comfrt Hoodie ads. I resisted for a really long time, but then… I didn’t resist. 🤣
And with much trepidation I placed an order.




Well, I’ll admit I was skeptical because the reason the ComfrtHoodie is so “famous” (quotation marks because maybe it’s only famous to me because I got targeted by a million ads?) is because the hood is weighted like a weighted blanket. So it’s supposed to reduce anxiety when you wear it? Also Tik Tok. Now. NOW. Listen up blog children. I’ve had weighted blankets and I hated them (my oldest child and I are the same person and she hates them too, but my three youngest LOVE them so I think we might be divergent, divergent… maybe we’re aliens?
So I was a bit nervous about the hood being the thing that actually made me not like this set, but I mean I’m a sucker for oversaturated marketing just like the next person (Alas, if only I wasn’t!)
But TBH, when I got the set I didn’t really notice it feeling super weighted except for the fact that the hood made me feel cozy and kind of like I was a caterpillar in it’s cocoon waiting to become a beautiful butterfly. That’s my weird brain’s way of saying that it didn’t feel heavy, but the hood does have this way of making you feel kind of hidden away and I can definitely see the benefit of that as someone who does experience intense anxiety. The weighted aspect of the hood primarily shows up in the fact that the hood does not slip off no matter what you are doing… and I have four kids so I feel like I’m a star witness in this regard.
The set has a fantastically thick weight to it and it feels like a really good, really soft vintage cotton which I actually was pleasantly surprised by. It’s hard to find sweat sets made with that kind of good quality material anymore and, in my opinion, it’s far superior in comfort to the “buttery soft” material that gets hyped up a lot in recent years. That kind of material will be shot after a year of washing it, but the more vintage style cotton like the Comfrt sets are made in will last a good long while. The fabric easily gets a 10/10 from me and all of my sensory related clothing issues.
I do usually prefer wide leg sweatpants because of the aforementioned elastic sensory thingy, but these are full length and the elastic is not tight so they don’t bother me as much as other sweatpants do and that comes down to the fact that they are full length. I can’t stand cinched sweatpants that are cropped. However, with that said… I’ve got my eye on the navy set, but I will definitely be ordering the straight leg sweatpant instead of the regular style.
In general the set is very oversized. I still sized up to a medium because I like everything to be extra oversized, but you could definitely take your regular size if you don’t want that extra room. It already has a generous fit, I just want to feel like my clothes are floating around me and like I’m barely wearing them… you know what I mean? (No one knows what I mean).
I rarely give a 10/10 review to anything, but these Comfrt sets are worth the hype they are getting. I think I’ll probably end up getting that navy set at some point so I can always have one available while I’m washing the other one because I’m that kind of person.
I hope this was helpful! Have you tried one of their sets? They have so many different colors so I linked a few other colors that caught my eye.
I hope you guys are having the best weekend! It’s going to be nice here this weekend so we’re probably going to see if we can find some baby ducks. 🙂 I hope you guys also have something fun planned outdoors!
Until next time,
Karin
I had never heard of them, but even my unweighted hood is super comforting. My husband is always asking me why my hood is up when I’m lounging at home and it’s because I feel cozy and enveloped.
There’s definitely something about being inside a hood ha! The muffling effect is a great way to “get away” without actually getting away.
This is very reassuring, Thank You! Cuz mine is on the way! And like you I’m nervous if the hype is just my phone and all the ads it pops up. But I felt the possibility was worth the risk lol so I bought the white mossy oak one, and I’m going to get the matching “Hey Dudes”, because those are my absolute favorite shoes for my terrible, painful feet. But thank you for this, I will come back next week with personal thoughts! God Bless 🙏
I have two sets, I bought the travel essentials set in slate Grey and I have the signature collection in coral. I do plan on buying more and wearing the color based on my mood. I absolutely love this brand and I love your review.
As a person who has suffered 14+ years with daily migraines I needed something I could melt into and this hoodie is definitely that.
Me and my daughter LOVE them!! We try to do some preorder thing because it’s cheaper but honestly they are WORTH it!! I want every color and I just suggested pockets on their loungewear, I would definitely buy one in every color!!
Customer service is a nightmare. Waited months, and they still sent the wrong items even though there were dozens of correspondents back and forth during those months of waiting. Now they refuse to take it back. Don’t waste your time. Don’t waste your money. It’s just a sweatshirt set
Ugh that sucks! I love my set, but you’re right that terrible customer service isn’t worth the headache!
About 2 months ago I got wrapped up in all the ads and ended up buying a full set and a zipper jacket. They are the softest material. I don’t wear the pants because I’m not used to a big leg pant. But at home I’ll sit around in my zipper jacket. It’s comforting.
Then late that same night their prices went way down. WAY down. Not knowing anything about this company, I had no idea whether this was common for late night. I bought, I believe, 3 more articles of clothing.I WAS SCAMMED. They were coming from China. THOSE NEVER ARRIVED. Im not sure how to report these because it says they were labelled Comfrt. I won’t buy from this company again because I just don’t know, still, if this was Comfrt also.
Oh no! I wonder if it was one of those websites that looks like the right website but is a fake website?
