Essentials Cotton-Blend Jersey Hoodie

A less common colourway in this line, and one of the quieter options here. The Cotton-Blend Jersey pieces use the lightest fabric Essentials makes, which is why they work indoors and through spring rather than only in deep winter. Heavyweight cotton fleece with a raised rubberised chest logo you can feel with a thumb, which is the detail counterfeits get wrong. The palette is the point: Essentials stays within a narrow band of muted tones, which is why pieces layer with each other so easily.

Fit. Cut oversized by design: wide body, dropped shoulders, slightly shorter length than the width suggests. Order your usual size for the intended look, or size down one for a closer fit.

Styling. Tonal layering is what makes Essentials look expensive: pair it with joggers a shade apart rather than matching exactly.

Care. Wash cold at 30 degrees, inside out, and air dry. Heat lifts the rubberised logo at the edges and eventually cracks it, and there is no fixing it once it goes.
