25 Best Men’s Hoodies For Maximum Style & Comfort

Rhone is one of our favourite retailers here at DMARGE. The American activewear company perfectly blends its fabric technology with staple designs that can clothe you from head to toe. It also makes Rhone’s clothing suitable for day-to-day wear, as well as in the gym or when exercising, of course.

Rhone’s hoodies are designed with an emphasis on both performance and style incorporating technical fabrics and features to ensure they meet the needs of active individuals while also offering a versatile and fashionable look. Fabrics are lightweight, soft and stretchy and will keep you warm while minimising sweat thanks to moisture-wicking technology.

Their staple hoodie is the Rhone OOO Hoodie which is your everyday soft cotton hoodie for days off the gym or relaxing around the house. If you want something with a bit more weight to it, then try their Tribeca Tech Hoodie that’s double knit for extra comfort.

With professional American surfer Kelly Slater manning the helm of this clothing brand, you can be guaranteed to score immediate cool points. Even better, is that everything Outerknown produces has been meticulously crafted to be as sustainable as possible. This means much of the clothing range is made from recycled materials and workers are employed through Fair Trade USA, ensuring they work in ethical conditions and receive appropriate pay for their hours.

Outerknown’s hoodie range is beach boho through and through. Innovative features such as on-seam pockets and rubberised closures help them stand out from a crowded sea of sweats and with a range of colours to choose from, you’ll do well to stock up.

Their Sur Snap French Knit Hoodie is pure luxury and will keep you snug as a bug in a rug. Otherwise, the Hightide Pullover Hoodie is made from organic cotton and recycled polyester for a very unique and environmentally feel.

The variations in the garment’s dyed fabric also add extra texture to this already cool hoodie.

Reigning Champ is a Canadian clothing brand (2007) that’s doing big things in the premium men’s athleisure space.  Made in Vancouver, Reigning Champ’s hoodies feature cotton fabrics in a loopback terry construction, that provides comfort and durability for workouts and lounging. Their ethos is simple… ‘Simplicity is arguably one of the hardest things to master’.  That said, they do this very well.

We like the brand because of its attention to detail, design and level of quality.

Reigning Champ hoodies come in pullover and full front zip, making them suitable for athletic activities and everyday wear. If you’re a skinny bloke, then their slim-fit hoodies will look amazing on you. Otherwise, their more natural relaxed heavyweight hoodie will be perfect for the cooler months.

They offer a really solid selection of colours that are contemporary and something you want to be seen in at the gym. Check out the pale pink, it’s a major vibe. Even their British Racing Green hoodie is the bomb.

Everlane is another retailer you should add to your list of reliable clothing sources. Not only does the American brand offer an incredible range of clothing, but it is all made from sustainable materials and in sustainable and ethical means. The retailer also lets you know how the price of each piece has been worked out, including where your money goes. Transparency, people.

Everlane’s ReTrack hoodie is without a doubt one of the nicer-looking hoodies on the market. Relaxed, double-layer hood, kangaroo pouch, premium cotton in relaxed proportions. If you need something lighter, then The Waffle-Knit Hoodie is the one to go for.

Each Everlane hoodie can also be had in a multitude of basic colours (black, grey, beige, etc), meaning you can wear dark, colours to the gym and more vibrant, fun colours on your days off.

Olivers Apparel is a Californian-based brand that was conceived in a small workshop, a handful of fabrics and a clear goal to reimagine the very notion of menswear essentials. Positioning themselves more towards athletic-types, Olivers employs a range of high-end fabrics to deliver an eclectic range of clothing that performs far better than your average high-street retailer.

The current hoodie range comprises solely pullover designs, ideal for retaining warmth when the temperature drops, and are presented in a couple of classic looks that be dressed up or down.

If you’re looking for a relaxed fit then the Olivers Classic Hoodie is the best pick. It’s made from soft and breathable Japanese Supima cotton which is also more durable than your basic cotton.

American sportswear brand Champion is the one we should all be thanking for the hoodie, as it was the first to devise the now-popular piece in the 1930s. Since then, Champion has only worked to improve the quality of the materials and the craftsmanship of its hoodies and still cements itself as one of the go-to brands for a fuss-free, dependable hoodie.

Whether you’re after a zip-up hoodie or a pullover, Champion has you covered, and you’ll find a quite simply huge collection in their online store. You may call us unoriginal, but our favourite has to be the company’s classic reverse-weave hoodie.

Available in essential colours and offering an exceptional fit, Champion’s reverse weave hood resists vertical shrinkage (something not all hoodies can lay claim to) and will last you a lifetime thanks to its double-needle construction.

A true icon, in every way.

Canadian company Lululemon isn’t just one to turn to for yoga clothing, in fact, the brand not only has an extensive range of activewear but a line of more casual clothing to boot.

It’s not just shorts and t-shirts for the gym in Gymshark’s clothing range either, as you’ll also find an extensive selection of hoodies too. Materials alternate been light and heavyweight for transitioning between seasons, as well as for use in and out of the gym.

Canadian clothing company Unbound Merino secures all of its Merino wool from ethical farms in Australia. It then uses this to create a premium fabric that serves up the perfect advert for this often-overlooked material.

Merino wool is a perfect partner for hoodies, as it provides plenty of warmth, yet without being too overbearing. It’s breathable too, so you can stay warm whilst also remaining sweat-free.

Better still, it’s naturally odour-resistant, will dry quickly, and exhibits some stretch to allow for full movement. Ideal for the man on the go. The brand’s Compact Travel Hoodie is our favourite hoodie for chucking in your carry-on when it gets chilly onboard a flight. It’s made from 97% Merino wool so it’s warm and breathable.

Direct-to-consumer brand American Giant makes all of its clothes in the United States. While that would normally mean prices would skyrocket, by adopting the D2C approach, American Giant is able to keep its prices firmly in the affordable category.

The brand places a firm emphasis on sustainability, longevity and comfort.

This is exemplified in the choice of fabrics used for its range of hoodies, which, while may be more akin to something your dad would wear, are made from the likes of cashmere to provide a supersoft feel that you’ll never want to be without.

Carhartt has been in operation since 1889 and has continued to be known for its range of heavy-duty clothing that comfortably fends off many of the nasties Mother Nature provides.
