The Top Men's Performance Hoodies

The performance hoodie has displaced the cotton sweatshirt as the go-to comfort layer for men who want their casual pieces to work as hard as they do. Built from technical fabrics that manage moisture, resist odor, and maintain shape wash after wash, performance hoodies have become legitimate wardrobe essentials far beyond the gym.

Why It's Trending

  • Lululemon's Scuba Hoodie and similar technical styles have set a new standard for what a hoodie should do
  • The athleisure-to-everywhere trend means performance pieces need to look good in all contexts
  • Four-way stretch fabrics allow hoodies to move with the body rather than restricting it
  • Premium fabrications have given the hoodie category a price point and status it never had before

What to Look For

  • 1Technical fabric — look for Luon, Nulu, or similar proprietary performance materials
  • 2A regular or slightly relaxed fit that doesn't look sloppy on the street
  • 3Flatlock seams that lie flat and won't chafe under a jacket or vest
  • 4A kangaroo or hand pockets that are actually deep enough to hold your phone
