- It's easy to fall into the same boring dressing habits while working a corporate job.
- Instead of wearing the typical fleece with your company logo on it, a cool option in a bolder color, a new take on a classic silhouette, or a fun pattern for weekends off can help you stand out.
- Brands like The North Face, Patagonia, Ralph Lauren, and Outerknown all make great alternatives to that company-branded vest you wear all the time in the office or over the weekend.
New York City is a melting pot full of all kinds of people, but if you take a look at the white-collar working class of Manhattan, you'll quickly realize that nobody actually seems to stand out. Blue and white button-ups, slacks, and the infamous black Patagonia fleece with a company logo embroidered on it has become the unofficial uniform of most guys in midtown and downtown Manhattan. Even on the weekend, you'll see those same company fleeces layered on top of more casual outfits like jeans and T-shirts.
Just because you have to follow a weekday dress code that errs on the side of boring doesn't mean your go-to fleeces should follow suit. Choosing a fleece in a bolder color or an interesting pattern can mean the difference between looking unique and memorable and being another anonymous clone.
To help you give your workweek and weekend looks some flare, we rounded up 14 cool fleeces to choose over the branded sweaters every one of your coworkers is probably wearing right now. Some are more appropriate for the office, some for the weekends - but all of them will keep you warm and comfortable.
