Twinning on the Trail - How to Style a Matching Dog and Owner Look with a Hugo and Ted Body Warmer
Partager
Because the best walks are the ones where you and your dog are perfectly coordinated.
There's something undeniably joyful about heading out for a walk with your dog when you're both dressed to match. At Hugo and Ted, we've always believed that style shouldn't stop at your dog's lead and our Hooman body warmer collection is designed to make twinning effortless.
Here's how to put together a coordinated look that works for autumn walks, weekend adventures, and everything in between.
The Hugo and Ted Hooman Body Warmer
Our ¼ zip fleece body warmers are made from the same premium fleece fabrics as our dog clothing which means when you wear one alongside your dog's coat or jumper, the match is genuine, not just approximate. They're warm, practical, and designed to be worn on the move.
We offer four styles:
- Fleece Hooman ¼ Zip Body Warmer - our classic style in a timeless polar fleece, perfect for layering over a long-sleeve top on cooler days.
- Pastel Collection Hooman Harlequin ¼ Zip Body Warmer - soft pastel tones that coordinate beautifully with our Pastel Collection dog slings and dog clothing.
- Hugo and Ted Print Hooman ¼ Zip Body Warmer - featuring our signature brand print, ideal for the owner who wants to wear their love of Hugo and Ted on their sleeve (quite literally).
- Mini Fleece Hooman ¼ Zip Body Warmer - for your hooman children, ideal if they'd love to match too.
How to Build a Coordinated Look
Step 1 - Start with the fabric.
Our body warmers and dog clothing are made from the same fleece ranges, so the easiest way to twin is to choose a body warmer and a dog coat or jumper from the same collection. The Pastel Collection and the Hugo and Ted Print are particularly easy to coordinate.
Step 2 - Match the occasion.
For active walks, pair a body warmer with one of our waterproof dog coats - practical for both of you. For a more relaxed weekend look, a fleece body warmer alongside a matching dog jumper is the perfect combination. You can choose the fleece on the waterproof dog coat to match your own clothing.
Step 3 - Add a sling for the full look.
If your dog is small enough to carry, a matching dog sling carrier completes the outfit and keeps your hands free on the walk. See our guide to choosing the right size sling if you're not sure which to go for.
Styling Tips for Autumn and Winter Walks
- Layer your body warmer over a chunky knit or long-sleeve top for extra warmth - the ¼ zip makes it easy to regulate temperature on the move.
- Neutral base layers let the fleece print do the talking; avoid busy patterns underneath.
- For photography (because of course you're going to photograph this), natural light and a simple background let the coordinated colours shine.
