The Classic: The grey sweatshirt

Over the years, the grey sweatshirt has become an iconic and long stay in the wardrobe and remains an obvious choice for those looking for a relaxed and comfortable style. Here we give examples of three ways to wear this indispensable classic.

The Classic: The grey sweatshirt

The grey sweatshirt gained popularity in the latter part of the 20th century when it became widely accepted as everyday wear - beyond its original role as a sportswear item. The simplicity and comfort of the sweatshirt has made it appeal to a wide audience and has become a staple in the casual wardrobe. The grey colour is a neutral and muted colour that can be easily combined with various other colours and patterns, making it a timeless and accessible choice.

Retro feel with stonewashed jeans

A safe card that’s ideal for both a casual date and for a day in the city, with carefully selected components whose aesthetics stand the test of time. The stone washed jeans combined with the grey classic sweatshirt and the red baseball cap give an Americanised retro feel that could be worn in 1994 as well as today, even though it is thirty years later.

Dress up the sweatshirt with suit trousers

We achieve a slightly dressier style by combining the sweatshirt with a pair of pleated suit trousers, adding a classic feel to the casual sweatshirt. With a white Oxford shirt, you dress up the combination even further, where the shirt's collar tips stand out outside the collar. Add a pair of solid-coloured sneakers in leather or suede to maintain the style level.

Sporty with a sweatshirt and Adidas

The classic way to combine the grey sweatshirt is in a more sporty spirit, then the sweatshirt is in original habitat. The history of the grey sweatshirt has its beginnings in the development of sportswear and dates back to the early 20th century as a training garment for athletes. The term "sweatshirt" itself reflects its original purpose as a garment designed to absorb sweat during physical activity. After that, more and more people discovered its versatility, not only at the gym but also in between. Therefore, the grey sweatshirt is a versatile garment and a perfect component in the casual and comfortable wardrobe.

The Jacker made of beautiful material with attention to details as expected from Stone Island. The size is more of loose/oversize fits. I wear XL in Stone Island Jacket, I should have bought L! However, I love this jacket and the feel of it. Care of Carol has an exceptional customer care service and very fast shipping.
