1. Footed Onesie

Who said onesies are only for babies? Footed onesies for adults are soft and come in a variety of styles, colors, and patterns. They're so comfy, you might consider making lounging your full-time job.

2. Wearable Blanket 

Is it a blanket or is it a poncho? The answer is both. Drape yourself in a wearable blanket and feel snuggly while you binge the latest true crime doc on Netflix. Shop for one that's extra soft and with a fleece interior to help you stay warm in the winter.

3. Fleece Hoodie

Every couch potato needs a fleece hoodie. They provide warmth and comfort and let you sprawl out on the couch for hours. The best part is that a fleece hoodie could also be worn in public, which can't be said for some other couch potato couture.

4. Couch Covers

This one is a bit of a cheat, but we're going for it anyway. Several couch covers can contribute to optimal binging. Shop for one that's soft, warm, and won't make you feel itchy when you lie on it. If you buy the right one, it can also be a nice accent piece for your family room.

5. Oodies

People mocked Oodie wearers when the product first hit the market. Well, who's laughing now? Oodies are warm, thick combinations of a wearable blanket and a hooded sweatshirt. They're extremely soft and made from fleece. If your goal is to be cozy and get lost in a blanket while watching your favorite show, then invest in an Oodie.

6. Shawls

A shawl is an item of clothing that you drape over your shoulders. It's a nice alternative for someone who doesn't like wearable blankets or finds sweatshirts too constricting. For TV watching, go for a shawl that's made from wool and one that could also be worn outside of the home.

7. Wool Socks

Wool socks are awesome for couch potatoes because they can be paired with shorts or a t-shirt, and you'll still be warm. You'll have tons of options for your wool sock collection, so have some fun buying pairs with bold designs and in different styles.

8. Sweatpants

No couch potato needs to be convinced to put on a pair of sweatpants. Most have multiple pairs, and there's nothing better than slipping into your favorite ones before cutting yourself off from the world for a night of pure TV watching.

9. Hooded Robes

The appeal of the hooded robe is that you can put one on right after a shower and then head straight to the couch. If being a couch potato without getting dressed appeals to you, then buy a hooded robe and get to work. And by work, we mean go watch TV.
