snug
Warm and fitted
Snug describes something comfortably tight or close-fitting—not loose, not constricting.
A snug sweater hugs the body.
A snug fit leaves little room to spare.
A snug space is small but cozy: a snug cabin, snug in bed.
The word suggests warmth and security, being tucked in and protected from the elements.
To snug something is to make it secure or compact: snug down the hatches.
