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.

The 8 Best Men’s Loungewear Sets to Wear Right Now
Best Loungewear Sets for Men

When loungewear transitions to a part of everyday life, it's important you treat it like any other wardrobe essential in your daily routine. The right t-shirt or sweatshirt and cozy pants or shorts can make all the difference, especially through multiple seasons. That's why the gear you wear at home should be every bit as stylish as the rest of your outdoor ensembles, and there's an easy place to start: Stylish loungewear.

And here's why: If we're hanging out at home in the same shirt and pants we wore to work (even if work was at home that day), we're sending a subtle signal to our unconscious minds that the daily grind really isn't over. That may result in a lack of sleep, an inability to relax, and worse, not being fully present with our families. The simple solution? Have a few pieces that you can wear around the house that are comfortable, but maybe not quite the rumpled pajamas that you'd wear to bed (assuming, of course, that you even wear pajamas). Grab a lounge set that you would be okay with wearing if a neighbor showed up, you decided to do a last-minute pizza run, or if have to walk the dog. Here are some of our favorite pieces (from some of the best men's clothing brands) that are cozy, but still look great.
