The Shrunken Fit

If you’ve never heard of shrunken sweatshirts before that’s okay! Our Sidekick Shrunken Sweatshirt has a close-to-the-body feel that’s fitted in all the right places and hits most people below the waistband for a versatile look and feel. It’s an easy silhouette that will quickly become your go-to pullover.

The Deets

The Sidekick Shrunken Sweatshirt is washed and treated for a lived-in vintage look we love, and is made from Super Soft fleece that feels almost too good to be true. Raglan sleeves, a crew neck, and a classic length all give this sweatshirt a just-right vibe that’ll make it part of your repeat outfit rotation.

How to Wear It

The easy, slightly shrunken fit makes the Sidekick Shrunken Sweatshirt an on-trend accomplice to all your favorite high-waisted bottoms, from jeans to joggers to mini skirts. Because the sweatshirt has a slim fit, it looks good for going out AND staying in.

For Going Out

Try the Sidekick Shrunken Sweatshirt with your go-to ‘90s Jeans like the iconic Mom fit or the don’t-call-it-a-comeback ‘90s Flare, or with a skater mini skirt or ripped denim shorts. Layer your way with a jean jacket or flannel shirt over your fleece, then add accessories like a beanies and belt to round out your look.

For Staying In

For those days when you’d rather lounge on the couch than deal with the outside world, get all the comfy vibes you need by pairing this fleece sweatshirt with joggers, leggings, or fleece shorts. Wear your Sidekick Shrunken Sweatshirt with loungewear like fleece flare pants, Boyfriend joggers, and cozy slippers for ultimate comfort this season.
