Everyday Hoodie

Everyday Hoodie

A guide to the everyday fleece: hoodies and crew sweatshirts in heather grey, navy and black. Made for guys who want one easy layer they can wear all week.

The best hoodie is the one you reach for without thinking, and for me that means grey, navy or black fleece that goes with everything in your closet. I like a heavy, soft cotton that holds its shape, like the Relaxed Cloud 9 from Marine Layer in black or heather grey, or the Midweight Terry from Reigning Champ, which has the weight of a sweatshirt your dad kept for twenty years.

 

For days when you want something slimmer, Rhythm's Classic Fleece comes as both a hoodie and a crew, and Beyond Yoga's full zip in navy layers neatly under a coat. Les Deux and Polo Ralph Lauren add a little graphic detail if plain feels boring. Wear any of them with straight jeans and clean sneakers and you are done. I went deeper on a related idea in The Comfort Hoodie Edit For Everyday Wear.
