Loungewear for men that also looks good

Short answer: Loungewear for men can be both soft and good looking if you choose a calm cut, simple colours and fabrics that hold their shape. Avoid worn T-shirts and baggy trousers and choose a few pieces that go together. Then you are well dressed, even at home.

What loungewear is and what it can be

Loungewear is what you put on when the day is over or when you want to relax at home. It does not have to be an old T-shirt and some baggy shorts. With a little thought you can choose pieces that are just as comfortable but also look tidy if someone drops by.

The fit should be calm

Loungewear fits loosely, but not so loosely that it hangs. Choose a cut where the trousers have an elastic waistband and a leg that falls neatly. The top should not be too short or too big. When the fit is calm, the clothes look as if you chose them with care.

A set gives a coherent look

A set in the same colour looks tidier than random pieces. Look at our bamboo jogging sets for men and judge whether the colour and cut suit you. A set makes it easy to change without having to think about what goes together.

Trousers in soft fabric

Good trousers for home have a soft waistband, no stiff seams and a fabric that feels pleasant against the skin. See our bamboo sweatpants for men, which work on the sofa and for a walk. Choose a dark colour if you want them to hide stains and look like ordinary clothes.

The T-shirt for home

A T-shirt in soft fabric and a plain shade looks better than one with a worn print. See our bamboo T-shirts for men, which can be worn alone or under a sweatshirt. Choose a fit that does not pull over shoulders and arms, so you can move freely.

Colours that look calm

Grey, navy, black and muted greens look calm and go together. Light colours get dirty quickly, while dark ones show less. If you want some variety, choose one piece in a slightly stronger colour and keep the rest calm.

Socks and slippers

Good socks or slippers make loungewear feel complete. Choose socks that do not squeeze and keep your feet warm. If you use slippers, choose a pair you can also step outside in if someone rings the doorbell. It is the little things that make a home feel calmer.

Care so the clothes last

Loungewear is worn a lot and washed often, so follow the care label. Avoid high heat and too much detergent and let the clothes dry completely before you put them away. That way they keep their shape and softness, and you do not have to replace worn and slack pieces so quickly.
