Tracksuits for Men – A Guide

Short answer: A tracksuit set for men should sit relaxed without looking sloppy and be soft without turning warm and clammy. Sets in bamboo viscose strike that balance: a soft sweat fabric that breathes and stays fresh all day, even when worn several days in a row.

The fit decides most of it

A set should be loose enough to sit on the sofa in and close enough to wear out of the house. The shoulder seam should end at the edge of the shoulder, and the trousers should taper slightly downwards. See bamboo tracksuit sets for men.

The top and the neck

A hoodie covers the neck and is warmest, while a sweatshirt is cleaner in its look and easier to wear under a jacket. See bamboo hoodies for men, and choose by whether the set will mostly be worn at home or also out the door.

The trousers and the waist

An adjustable waist with a flat drawstring is what decides whether the trousers can be worn all day. A thick or round cord leaves a mark when you sit for hours. See bamboo sweatpants for men and try the waist sitting down.

Why bamboo in sweat fabric

Sweat fabric is thicker than ordinary jersey and lies close to the body for many hours at a stretch. Bamboo viscose moves the moisture away and holds back odour, so the set can be worn several days without feeling used. That is the single reason many switch material.

For working from home

On a day working from home the top has to survive a video call. A plain, dark sweatshirt without a print manages that, while a hoodie with a drawstring reads more clearly as relaxed on a camera. Many own both and switch depending on the day.

Outside the home

A plain set in a dark tone can be worn to the shops, on a train journey and for an evening with family without looking like house clothes. See the rest under bamboo loungewear for men if the set has to work in more places than the sofa.

The colour has to be identical

A tracksuit set stands or falls on the two pieces having exactly the same colour. Buy them at the same time and from the same series, because two grey pieces from different series rarely look identical in daylight, and the difference only grows after a few washes.

Washing and shape

Wash the set together at 30 degrees without fabric softener, so the two pieces fade at the same pace. Turn them inside out so the brushed inside does not rub against the drum. Hang them to dry, because the tumble dryer makes both the ribbing and the surface brittle. See also bamboo loungewear.

Frequently asked questions

Hoodie or sweatshirt for a set?

A sweatshirt if the set has to work for a video call or under a jacket. A hoodie if it is mostly worn at home and should cover the neck.

How loose should sweatpants be?

Loose over the thighs and hips and slightly tapered at the bottom. Completely straight, wide legs look sloppy and sit badly in a pair of trainers.

Can the set be worn outside the home?

Yes, if it is plain, dark and fits properly. Trainers and a simple jacket over it keep it from looking like house clothes.
