Hoodies

Must-Haves with a History

What used to be workwear is now a statement piece for urban trendsetters. As a stylish leisure companion, men's hooded jumpers are among the most popular pieces of clothing in everyday fashion. Who would have thought that the origins of the modern hoodie lie in medieval monk robes? Monks were the first to sew hoods onto their garments. In the 1930s, the hoodie was invented in the USA – a jumper for workers that could keep the head warm even in cold temperatures without losing their hat. Since the 1970s, the hoodie spread rapidly – initially adorned with prints of American universities – as sportswear and streetwear. It has now become an integral part of modern sport and casual wardrobes, thanks to its casual and cool attitude.

Cool and Comfortable: Designer Hoodies for Men

Designer hoodies are characterised by one thing above all: their exceptional wearing comfort. In a hoodie, one feels relaxed and well-protected, whether outdoors during sports, leisure, or chilling on the sofa. In addition to the classic men's crew neck jumper and the elegant V-neck jumper for men, the popular hoodie exudes a more sporty and casual vibe. Hoodies are mostly sewn from sweat fabric made of pure cotton with a soft inner side, which promises the wearer special comfort and freedom of movement. An attached kangaroo pocket invites you to warm your hands. Some men's hooded jumpers do without the typical hood cord, creating a simple, clean look. The hoodie has long since arrived in the collections of high fashion. Real luxury variants are knitted from pure wool or even cashmere. This makes the designer hoodie for men an absolute comfort guarantee.

Design Variety: From Trendy to Timeless

The versatility continues in current men's fashion. Modern designer hooded sweatshirts not only reflect the most recent trends – simple timeless designs can be effortlessly integrated into various lifestyles. The popular oversized fit emphasises the casual and relaxed character of the hoodie. Luxurious and elegant by Brunello Cucinelli for men or sporty and casual with a cool brand print from Stone Island for men – the collections not only present a wide range of designs but also a palette of colours and prints that reflect personal taste.

What to Consider When Buying a Hoodie?

• Material Quality: Sweat fabric is usually made from cotton, providing high wearing comfort due to its flexible structure. There are also hoodies with a knitted design made of wool or cashmere, which appear more elegant than sporty sweatshirts.
• Fit: Choose the fit according to your personal style. Whether oversized, regular fit, or slim fit, select a cut in which you feel comfortable. You can choose one to two sizes larger for a hoodie, emphasising the laid-back style.
• Design: Opt for a design that suits your taste and lifestyle. There is a variety of styles, from simple basics to eye-catching details, prints, and logos.
• Season: Consider the season in which you plan to wear the hoodie. Light cotton or linen qualities are better in spring and summer, while warming knits, heavier cotton, or fleece are suitable for the cooler seasons.
• Fitting: Try on the hoodie before purchasing to ensure it fits well and suits you. Wear the clothes you plan to combine with your new favourite pullover during the fitting.

Styling Tips for Designer Hoodies for Men:

Do: Always wear the hood over the jacket, overshirt, or smart-casual jacket for a particularly casual look. Only in heavy rain you should tuck the hood flat under the jacket to prevent the fabric from soaking up.

Don't: Don't wear dress shirts with collars under a hooded jumper or hooded sweat jacket. Both lose their effect in this combination. Instead, opt for the reverse: A designer overshirt for men under the hoodie creates a stylish look.
