Off-duty means different things to different people. But, for those more discerning men, the ambassador of all things off-duty is, of course, the grey sweatshirt.
The term “wardrobe essential” is one you’ll see in abundance if you frequent the GQ style pages, but along with the plain white tee, a grey sweatshirt is truly deserving of the title. Treading that fine line between cosy enough to lounge around the house in while wearable to brunch (layered over a T-shirt) or date night (over a pale-blue Oxford shirt), it's an unapologetically basic piece with major styling versatility.
