I go to college, and I see one thing as being the most common in a college student’s wardrobe: hoodies. They are a college student’s best friend. You can’t live without them. They are perfect when you need to throw something on when you are running out the door, or they are great when you want to lounge around in your apartment. I literally have a collection of hoodies—and I am always looking for more. My roomates and friends also love their hoodies. Here are 5 reasons why you should consider wearing a hoodie today.

1. They are comfortable
Hoodies are made to be extremely comfortable. Depending on the hoodie, they can be lined with soft fleece inside. They are perfect if you want clothes that aren’t too form fitting or uncomfortable.

2. They show school spirit
There are many hoodies that have your school’s logo on them. If you are going to any sporting event, hoodies are the way to go. They also serve a dual purpose because you will be comfortable while supporting your team.

3. They are warm
No matter where you have to go, a hoodie will keep you warm. The hood will keep your head warm and your hands can stay toasty in your hoodie pocket. If you are going out on a late-night hike, a hoodie can be a great idea to take along with you. You can tie it around your waist and when it gets cold, you can put it on.

4. You can dress them up
Hoodies look good with just about anything. If you are going out, you can pair a hoodie with some nice jeans. It will make you look like you aren’t trying too hard. Many designers also make really nice hoodies if you want to dress up your look even more.

5. It’s a great place to store things
As a college student, having a hoodie with pockets is a great place to store all of your things. You can put your cell phone in the pocket, your student ID, your keys, and you will have quick and easy access to them!

Hoodies are perfect when you are in college. You can wear them for just about anything. They are perfect for going on a hike or when you need to take a study break. They will keep you warm and you can put all of your things in the pockets.
