But don’t worry, this size guide is here to help you figure it all out, one hoodie (or pair of sweatpants) at a time.
What Makes ESSENTIALS So Special?
If you’re new to Fear of God ESSENTIALS, here’s the deal: it’s the brainchild of Jerry Lorenzo, a master of blending luxury and streetwear. ESSENTIALS focuses on minimalistic, oversized styles that are perfect for everything from chilling at home to running errands in style. Think neutral tones, soft fabrics, and a fit that screams relaxed confidence. Sounds amazing, right?
How Do ESSENTIALS Clothes Fit?
Here’s the fun part—ESSENTIALS is all about that laid-back, slightly oversized vibe. But what does that actually mean?
- Hoodies: Roomy and cozy. If you want something more fitted, size down.
- Crewnecks: A bit baggier than the hoodies. Perfect if you love a relaxed fit.
- T-Shirts & Long Sleeves: Oversized by design. For a snugger look, size down one or even two sizes.
- Sweatpants/Joggers: These are long and slightly tapered around the calves. Want a closer fit? Go down a size.
- Shorts: Expect a roomy fit. Most people size down for a more standard look compared to brands like Nike or Adidas.

Tips for Choosing Your Fit
- Ask Yourself: What’s Your Style?
Do you like it baggy, or do you prefer a cleaner, fitted look? For that true Fear of God aesthetic, stick with your normal size. But if you want a tailored vibe, try sizing down. - Think About the Piece:
- Knits tend to fit slimmer but still have an oversized feel.
- Hoodies? Go big or go home (unless you want to size down for a sleeker look).
- Shorts and sweatpants? They’re made to be roomy, but sizing down works if you prefer less extra fabric.
- Don’t Forget About Layers:
Planning to wear a hoodie under a coat? Keep that in mind when choosing your size. A super oversized hoodie might not fit well under a slim jacket.
