Luxe to Less: Why Guys Are Embracing The Sweats Trend

Words By Brittany Lyons

In times of isolation we have never appreciated the category of ‘loungewear’ ever so much. Now blending beautifully into everyday wear, this selection of hoodies, crew neck jumpers and track pants are perfect to sport to any modern day outing.

Who ever said that sweats weren’t fashionable? This curation of jersey goodness is certainly here to make a statement. While designer leisurewear is typically associated with rappers and the like, who’s to say the modern fashion appreciator can’t partake too? For the everyday modern man, an investment into a branded hoodie or track set should be considered as a lifetime layering piece. Layering as well as matching each item back with pieces a little more polished, will ensure a sports-luxe look that we know many of you appreciate.

With comfort comes versatility, and sweats are the ultimate in comfort dressing. While the price tag of this group of sweats don’t necessary suggest you should be running a mile in them, they provide a certain luxury that certainly justifies the investment. Ooze cool with this selection of sweats.

Ideal for the man who’s looking for pieces refined enough to wear to work, as well as the versatility to wear lounging around the house.

Mid-range sweats seek to fulfil the need of great quality, while still being accessible when it comes to price point.

The classic English chav staple, the striped-side track pant, will always have a place in the modern man’s wardrobe. Effortlessly cool and comfortable, these slim pants are the trousers trendier cousin. Choose them in a tonal colour? You’ve got yourself a comfortable sweat disguised as a work-appropriate pant. What’s not to love?

When choosing the best mid-range sweats Monde has to offer, ensure you’re getting the right mix of comfort and style. A piece you’d be proud to wear to the office, and gladly wear to the door to collect your Uber Eats.

Most of the population would be comfortable with this calibre of sweat. An entry level jersey sweat is probably the style of leisurewear you’re most familiar with. Suggested by the name, historically this type of clothing was created to help you do exactly that. Sweat.

While these days we have highly engineered activewear that aid in speed, agility and airflow, back in the day folks used to wear a matching tracksuit to excel at their favourite sports. Widely used these days as anything but activewear, these hoodies and trackie-dacks are famously worn on a lazy Sunday spent on the couch. Don’t think for a second that these are a uniform for when you’re feeling yucky, these sweats are saved for when you want to slip into the deep descend of an utterly serene, relaxed state.
