However, before enjoying the perfect fit and expressing your personal style with the line, it’s key to make sure you’re going for the right size for your pieces, especially if you’re buying online. To help you out, we’ve created a comprehensive guide to understanding the Fear of God Essentials size chart, so you can buy in confidence and ensure the perfect fit. Let’s take a look!

Who is Fear of God?

The Fear of God brand, launched in 2013 by Jerry Lorenzo, quickly established itself as a pillar of the luxury streetwear scene. The Los Angeles-based brand is famed for its distinctive blending of high fashion influences with street-style sensibility, often delivered in monochromatic and earth tones.

The Essentials line, a sub-brand of Fear of God, captures a more casual and accessible aesthetic while maintaining the brand's signature quality. Essentials pieces are versatile, comfortable, and subtly elegant, designed to seamlessly integrate into your everyday wardrobe. Celebrities and style enthusiasts worldwide have lauded the line's hoodies, trousers, and tees, particularly the Fear of God Essentials hoodies.

Understanding Essentials Hoodie Sizing

When it comes to Essentials hoodie sizing, comfort is key. The hoodies, known for their luxurious fabrics and meticulous craftsmanship, are designed for a relaxed fit, aligning with the brand's commitment to laid-back sophistication.

For a true-to-size fit, the Essentials hoodies provide ample room without appearing excessively baggy. However, those desiring a more fitted silhouette might consider sizing down. Keep in mind, the slightly oversized design of the hoodies is part of their unique charm, offering a modern twist to the casual comfort of classic hoodie design.

It is important to note that the t-shirts and shorts in the Essentials range do offer a very baggy fit - you might want to take this into consideration when determining what kind of fit you’d like.

Fear of God Essentials: Choosing Your Size 

While the brand does tend to run true to size in alignment with all standard UK sizing, here are some points that can help ensure you get the right fit, especially if you’re buying online:

• Consult the size chart: For women, the Fear of God Essentials size chart is your go-to tool for choosing the right size. Align your measurements with those provided on the chart to make an informed decision. For men, reference the chart above and opt for your standard sizing. If you’re looking for the authentic oversized look aligned with the brand, you might want to opt for a size or two over your standard size, but make sure to take into account sleeve length and the length of the hoodie itself. 
• Measure yourself accurately: Use a flexible measuring tape to measure your chest, waist, and hip size. For hoodies, consider the length from your shoulder to your wrist to get an idea of sleeve length.

How many sizes up do I need to go for an oversized hoodie look?

Generally, you should only need to go up one size to achieve the coveted oversized streetwear style associated with the brand. For women with larger busts who would like an oversized look, you may want to go up two sizes when buying hoodies and t-shirts - although this could mean having to alter the length of these items’ sleeves.

A note on authenticity

In today's marketplace, the popularity of Fear of God Essentials has unfortunately given rise to counterfeit products. These knock-offs not only fall short on quality, design, and longevity, but their sizing often significantly deviates from the authentic brand's specifications.

To ensure accurate sizing and receive a genuine product, it's crucial to purchase only from authentic Fear of God sellers - such as us at Hype Locker UK. By doing so, you're not just investing in an authentic piece of fashion; you're supporting fair trade and the continued creation of high-quality, innovative clothing.  Plus, replica models are likely to last long after multiple wears; buy authentic to ensure optimal quality.
