A men's fleece sweater is a soft layer with a distinct textured finish. The selection can range from classic fleece pullovers to half-zip styles and fleece pieces with a more jacket-like construction. Look at the fit, weight and fastening to find the style that works best for how you want to wear it.

Loose fit, regular fit and half-zip

The fit changes the overall look just as much as the fabric. A loose fit gives you more volume and room for layers underneath, while a regular fit sits closer to the body. Half-zip styles let you adjust the opening at the neck, while full-front openings work more like an outer layer.

Details such as elasticated cuffs, adjustable drawstrings and side pockets can also vary between styles.

Fleece as a layering piece

Fleece works well as a mid-layer when you want to add more texture and volume to an outfit. Wear a fleece sweater over a T-shirt or under a men's jacket, depending on the weight of the garment.

Check the individual product details, as material, fit and construction can vary between styles.

Wear fleece with denim

The soft fleece texture works well against more structured fabrics like denim. Pair a fleece sweater with men's jeans and sneakers for a simple everyday outfit, or wear it with men's sweatpants for a more relaxed look.
