It’s pitch-black at 5 p.m., the air is brisker, and the occasional flurry can be seen from your window. No doubt about it: We’re well into the winter season! That said, there's no time like the present to stock up on comfy clothes and give those sweatshirts for women you've had in your closet a timely upgrade.
As the weather continues to cool down, you might be ready to break out your favorite hoodie or crewneck, which are admittedly practical and great for everyday use. But why not shake things up a bit with the latest iterations available? And since the athleisure craze is still making its way through fashion trends, there's no shortage of prints and silhouettes available that combine both comfort and style — plus, many options offer versatility and eco-conscious offerings, too, and could be just what you need to complete your cold-weather wardrobe. Look good, feel good, do good!
We dove in and took a long look at some of the top-rated sweatshirts on the market. We considered fit, materials used, and added features. We also read quite a few customer reviews to better understand the functionality and reliability of each sweatshirt. Information overload? No such thing when winter is coming!
Streetwear continues to grow in popularity, with one of the main trends being oversized clothing.
This crewneck sweatshirt from Lululemon is a great option since it has an exaggerated fit that’s long enough to cover your bum and your hips. It has plenty of extra room so you won’t feel constricted, and can be dressed up or dressed down depending on your needs.
Let’s ease into this: If you’re just looking for a basic closet staple, this Amazon just might be made for you. It’s a lightweight pullover hoodie, made with a blend of cotton and polyester for comfort and a soft feel.
There are multiple colors available, so you can find a shade the caters to your style. You can also wear it as a base layer or size up for a more oversized fit.
As temps keep dropping, you might be on the search for a women's sweatshirt with some additional insulation. The Clarksburg Pullover sweatshirt from Carhartt is made from 10.5-ounce material, so it's a little heavier than your average hoodie. The rib-knit cuffs and waistline help protect from the cold, and the front pocket holds all your essentials.
If you want to avoid the added bulk from a heavyweight sweatshirt, try out this pullover from Prettygarden on Amazon. The half-zip makes it easy to take on and off, and the stand collar has adjustable drawstrings for a more comfortable fit. It’s made with a polyester and cotton blend so it’s soft to the touch. Wear with a long sleeve underneath, or throw a heavier jacket over the top for added warmth.
Since wearing a blanket out in public may or may not still be frowned upon, opt for a sherpa sweatshirt instead. This pullover is thick, soft, and made with 100% polyester. The plaid prints available add a fashionable touch and customers are loving the slouchy boyfriend fit.
This fleece hoodie sweatshirt from Nike has a unique funnel neck, which helps block out wind and doesn’t make you feel like you’re being restricted by drawstrings. The ribbed cuffs and hemline also help keep out breezes and cold drafts, while French terry fleece will have you feeling insulated but not overheated. All in all, a great base layer for the winter.
Already stocked up on the basics? Maybe you’re looking to switch things up a little bit. Enter: This mockneck sweatshirt from Everlane, which adds some unique style and texture to your closet. It has a quilted design, quarter-button closure, and boxy cut. It’s different than your standard sweatshirt but still serves the same purpose — keeping you warm and cozy.
If you’re getting a lot of use out of your sweatshirt, you want to make sure that it can hold up after repeated wear. This fleece hoodie from Richer Poorer is designed for everyday use, so we won’t blame you if you wear it Monday to Sunday. The cotton/polyester blend gives all the comfy vibes, and the jersey-lined hood blocks wind out if you’re running errands.
Another great Everlane find, this hoodie is made of 8.6-ounce cotton so it’s lightweight yet still durable. Customers are liking the unique tapered cut because it helps eliminate extra bulk that usually gathers around your stomach in the average sweatshirt. It’s a great option to layer over T-shirts or under your heavier winter jacket. The neutral colors also make it a great closet staple.
Appropriately named, the Weekend Terry Sweatshirt from ThirdLove is perfect for those lazy days spent at home. It's made with 100% cotton for soft flexibility, but keep in mind it might shrink if dried with high heat. It has a relaxed fit, but textured panels add some spice. Sizes go up to a 3XL.
