Buying men’s clothing online may seem simple, but a photo and a short product title do not tell the whole story. A sweatshirt may be warmer than expected, a T-shirt may feel too loose because of an unusual fit, and a winter coat may be less suitable for wet, windy weather than the product photo suggests.
The main pitfalls are usually not obvious defects, but missing details. So before you check out, pay attention to these three points:
Do not just look at the stated size; check the available measurements too. With a sweatshirt, the chest width may be more important than the size label. For example, the adidas Trefoil Essentials Crew Sweatshirt IY4932 in size S lists a chest width of 48 cm and has a regular fit.
For men’s T-shirts, the difference between regular, athletic, relaxed and oversized can be significant:
The Urban Classics Heavy Oversized Tee is made from 100% cotton and has a fabric weight of 240 g/m². This tells you more than simply describing it as a “heavy T-shirt”. If you are looking for men’s T-shirts with a standard fit, bear the oversized cut in mind when considering this model.
The composition affects how a garment feels, how warm it is and how it should be cared for. A cotton blend feels different from 100% polyester. Elastane can provide extra stretch, while recycled polyester is part of the fibre composition but does not automatically mean that a garment is more sustainable in every situation.
Examples from the range:
For men’s sportswear, synthetic fibres are often practical because they are lightweight and easy to care for. According to Nike’s own product information, Dri-FIT technology in certain Nike models is designed to help draw moisture away from the skin. Treat this as a brand product specification, not as a universal guarantee of a dry experience for every wearer.
For everyday wear, men’s casual clothing, men’s sweatshirts, men’s hoodies and jogging bottoms are generally easy to combine. For training, freedom of movement, weight and washing instructions are more important. On cold days, fit, layering and coverage all matter.
Do not choose a winter coat based on colour alone. Check:
The Urban Classics Basic Puffer Jacket has an outer material of 100% polyamide, a lining of 100% polyester and filling made from 100% polyester. For size XXL, a chest measurement of 110–119 cm is listed. This makes the size guide particularly relevant if you want to wear the coat over a men’s hoodie or sweatshirt.

With men’s underwear, the waistband is at least as important as the fabric. A style that is too tight can feel uncomfortable, while a fit that is too loose may shift as you move. Compare the size guide with your waist measurement and check the elastane content.
The Lee Trunk Innes comes as a 5-pack and consists of 57% cotton, 38% polyester and 5% elastane. The Urban Classics boxer shorts are also available as a 5-pack, with organic cotton and elastane. For sports use, the Reebok RBK Sports Trunks are available as a practical 3-pack. For all men’s boxer shorts, check the washing instructions and read the care label before washing.
Machine-washable clothing can help keep running costs low when you follow the instructions. Cold washing, mild detergent and air drying may be suitable for some garments, but the recommended treatment varies by material. You can also browse our range of machine-washable clothing.
We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
Measure your chest, waist and, if necessary, hip circumference with a flexible tape measure. Compare these measurements with the table for the specific product. Use a garment that fits well as an additional reference, but do not rely solely on the size label.
A combination of a T-shirt, sweatshirt or hoodie and jogging bottoms works well for many casual occasions. Choose cotton or a cotton blend when comfort is the priority. For training, men’s sportswear made from a synthetic fibre blend may be more practical, depending on the product description and your personal preference.
A garment’s lifespan depends on its material, how often it is worn, friction, the wash cycle and drying. There is no fixed lifespan for every item of clothing. Follow the care label, wash dark colours separately where indicated and avoid bleach if the manufacturer advises against it. The adidas and Nike products mentioned state a minimum legal guarantee of two years under EU consumer rules; a legal guarantee does not mean that normal wear and tear is covered indefinitely.
