Owning a sweatshirt that you love is more important than ever. Like T-shirts and sweatpants, the best sweatshirts are no longer just for lazy weekends or workouts; they have become staple pieces for casual video conferences, running errands, and even as an outer layer for your favorite band’s concert. Essentially, there’s never been a better time to invest in a new sweatshirt.

BEST DEAL
Jos. A. Bank Travel Hoodie
$19.99 $75.00 73% off
Jos. A. Bank has established itself as a go-to for elevated, minimal staples. A case in point is the brand’s Travel Hoodie. The cotton is ultra-soft and durable enough to withstand the abuses of traveling and commuting. Plus, as with all of the brand’s pieces, the sweatshirt comes in a range of modern, neutral colors for maximum style versatility.
SLEEK AND SIMPLE
Fresh Clean Threads Zip-Up Hoodie
$59.00
Yes, a hoodie can be flattering, as proven by this zip-up from Fresh Clean Threads. Made of soft cotton-poly fleece, the sweatshirt hugs the body for cozy warmth and a flattering fit. All of the details are high-quality as well, from the brushed nickel hardware to the ribbed cuffs and waistline.
AFFORDABLE BUY
Champion Men's Reverse Weave Crew
$41.95+
Sweatshirts from classic sportswear brands have become a favorite among sweater-wearers from just about every walk of life. This reverse weave Champion crewneck is one that we’ve been seeing everywhere from the gym to the street, and even on some of our favorite musicians like Chance The Rapper. The poly-fleece fabric is warm, soft, and extra durable, and the massive plethora of colors means you can get one (or a few) to match your casual style.
BEST COLLAB
Todd Snyder x Champion Pocket Sweatshirt
$98.00
If you’re looking for a vintage take on the modern sweatshirt, check out this pocket crew from Todd Snyder + Champion. The sweatshirt combines Champion’s sweatwear know-how with Todd Snyder’s designer touch for a unique, upscale staple. The fabric, a premium loopback French Terry, is given a vintage sun-faded look that we’re very into. It comes in a handful of great colors, and works well with button-ups and slacks or sweats and tees.
WORN-IN FEEL
Outerknown Sur Snap Hoodie
$128.00
Outerknown was founded by surf legend Kelly Slater, but the brand’s sustainable clothing isn’t just for surfers. Pieces like this Sur Snap hoodie make a great addition to any athleisure collection because they tweak the classic mold for the better. The hoodie uses a soft hemp-cotton blend which, thanks to the hemp, feels heavier than most sweatshirts. The snap closure on the collar also adds extra warmth when needed, while on-seam pockets provide ample space for stashing stuff in the front.
AS SEEN ON TV
Richer Poorer Men's Recycled Fleece Hoodie
$82.00
This hooded sweatshirt from Richer Poorer got some much-deserved attention thanks to Trevor Noah wearing it during The Daily Show broadcasts. It was a smart pick on Noah’s part, as it’s both laidback and comfortable (as all great sweatshirts should be) but also slightly structured thanks to a cotton-polyester build. We like it in this versatile, eye-catching Golden Verde color, although the tie-dye option is also great as a bold loungewear choice.
SPORTY LOOK
Nike Men's Sportswear Hoodie
$65.00
Buy Now on dick's Sporting Goods
If you’re looking for a cozy sweatshirt for lazy mornings or workout warmups, check out this classic Nike fleece hoodie. It’s a no-nonsense casual-wear staple with just a hint of branding in the form of the Nike logo on the chest. Plus, you get a ton of colors to choose from, ranging from tame to bold.
LUXURY OPTION
AMI Small ADC Sweatshirt
$400.00
AMI’s simple, upscale crewneck utilizes premium organic cotton and a flattering fit for a sweatshirt you’ll never want to take off. On the chest you’ll find AMI’s Ami de Coeur motif, providing a small yet noticeable reminder of the French brand you’re rocking.
CLASSIC CHOICE
Reigning Champ Hoodie
$135.00
Another upgraded hoodie is this Popover from Reigning Champ. The Canadian brand handcrafts their sweaters using pure cotton, and the added craftsmanship shows. The sweater feels better than most — and it looks that way in person to the trained eye.
