Fear of God Essentials is the everyday line from Jerry Lorenzo’s Los Angeles label Fear of God: heavyweight fleece hoodies, sweatpants, tees and shorts in soft, washed neutrals, cut with the relaxed proportions the brand is known for. Coveti carries more than 400 Essentials pieces, every one authentic and in stock now, alongside the full Fear of God collection.

Essentials hoodies

The hoodie is the piece most people come to Essentials for. The Classic hoodie has a roomy body and a dropped shoulder, the 90s Relaxed fit goes slightly boxier, and the zip-up versions layer under a coat. Newer styles add a half-raglan sleeve. Our Essentials hoodie guide covers fit, sizing and how to spot a real one.

Essentials sweatpants

Essentials sweatpants come in more fits than most people expect: the Classic straight leg, the looser Slouchy fit, the Lounge pant and a flared Signature version. Match them to a hoodie in the same heather for a full set. The sweatpants guide explains every fit.

Essentials tees

Essentials tees come in Classic, 90s Relaxed, Boxy and Merch fits, and each sits a little differently on the shoulder. They are the easiest place to start with the line. See the tee fit guide for the differences.

Crewnecks and sweatshirts

For a cleaner neckline than a hoodie, the Essentials crewneck comes in the same fleece and the same washed palette. The embossed and suede-fleece versions add texture without a large logo.

Shorts

Sweatshorts, nylon gym shorts and basketball shorts round out the warm-weather side of Essentials. The shorts guide compares the lengths.

Jackets and outerwear

Essentials outerwear keeps the same muted colours in tougher fabrics: a ripstop half-zip, a track jacket, a filled barn jacket and a washed denim jacket.

Essentials NFL collection

The sports collections put team names on Essentials hoodies, crewnecks, sweatpants and shorts in the line’s seal heather. They make an easy gift for a fan. Read more about the NFL, MLB and NBA collections.

How to wear Essentials

The simplest way is a matching set: hoodie and sweatpants in one heather, with clean white sneakers. For something sharper, put an Essentials crewneck under a wool coat, and wear the tees under a jacket in place of a shirt. Our guide to Essentials sets and ten Fear of God outfits have more ideas, and Fear of God vs Essentials explains how the two lines differ.
