Fear of God Essentials 1977 Joggers Black

The Essentials 1977 Joggers Black are the bottom half of the outfit most people build around a 1977 hoodie. Black brushed fleece, the 1977 mark placed low on the leg, sold as sweatpants in the brand's own language.

Buying them as a set, or not

Plenty of people buy these to match a 1977 hoodie, and full black on black is a clean way to wear it. But the more useful approach is treating them as a separate. Black joggers go with every hoodie you own, so these get more wear apart from the set than with it.

The cut is wider than most joggers

These are relaxed through the thigh and only taper towards the ankle, so they stack slightly over a trainer rather than sitting flush. That is intentional and it is what makes them read as Essentials rather than as gym kit.

Fit and sizing

• Relaxed through the thigh with a gentle taper to the ankle
• Elasticated waist with a drawcord
• Cuffed ankle
• True to size in the waist, so take your usual
• Available in S, M, L and XL

Wearing them

They work with a boxy hoodie because the proportions match. They work badly with a fitted top, because the volume on the bottom half needs something to balance it. Keep the silhouette consistent top and bottom.

Care

• Cold wash at 30 degrees, inside out, with darks
• Hang dry rather than tumble, which protects both the print and the elastic
• No fabric softener on brushed fleece
• Wash the drawcord tucked in so it does not pull through
