Essentials 1977 Hoodie

As one of the few brand marks on an otherwise clean and minimal collection, the 1977 print on the Fear of God Essentials hoodie is a direct nod to the birth year of the brand's founder, Jerry Lorenzo. Known for its muted beige tones, the 1977 hoodie has a contrasting print, allowing for a contemporary take on classic American varsity menswear. Jerry Lorenzo started Essentials as a more accessible subdivision of his Fear of God label in 2018. Since then, Essentials has exceeded the already grand popularity of its older sister label, with many star endorsements and premium retailers attached. With the 1977 hoodie, usually available in black, beige or grey, Lorenzo harks back on his own past as an aspiring athlete, following the footsteps of his father, Jerry Lorenzo Manuel Sr., who played in the MLB for seven years.
