There’s no denying that we all live in hoodies as a result of the ongoing pandemic, one that led us to work from home and dress more comfortably and casually all the while. There’s a right way and a wrong way to wear and shop for a hoodie, and we’ve got a few thoughts on what makes a great sweatshirt.

They bring comfort just by themselves on cooler days or layered with your best wool coat or other winter essentials on even colder days. With many of us still working from home, a hoodie’s also an excellent go-to around the house. Just make sure to layer it with a blazer for those important Zoom meetings.

You should always prioritize quality because, more than likely, you’ll be spending a lot of time in it. We rounded up some of the best hoodies for every style.

Regardless of how you feel on the matter, here are the days to stay where apparel leans more towards the way of comfort rather than tailoring. We are in an age where comfort is generally outweighed as opposed to style when people choose most of their outfits. Long gone are the days of the 1950s when men wore suits every time they stepped foot outside the house.

It is a fundamental part of every fashion subset from streetwear to formalwear. Luckily, some brands are getting this right.

Clothes that were originally designed for playing sports, exploring the great outdoors, or working out are now worn for grocery shopping, grabbing a casual drink with friends, or the more popular than ever, travelwear..

The easy-to-wear silhouette made its way through Europe and eventually to America in the 1930s.
