Comfort is key when it comes to getting dressed in the winter, but that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style. A good sweatshirt or pair of sweatpants can be just as much of a statement piece as anything else in your wardrobe, especially when brands get creative with their graphics, materials, and fits.

From distressed hoodies and embroidered sweatpants to more understated everyday essentials, we've rounded up six cozy pieces available on Complex that you'll want to wear all winter.

Ksubi gives the classic black hoodie a worn-in makeover with its Shield Hoodie. Cut from heavyweight fleece in an oversized, boxy fit, it features a faded charcoal wash, distressed holes, and subtle perforations throughout. The finishing touch is a colorful, Porsche-inspired crest on the chest that incorporates Ksubi's signature branding. It's a great option if you're looking for a hoodie with a little more edge.

AZVA Pearl Sweats

Price: $90

If you're looking to add a little flair to your everyday sweats, AZVA has you covered. These baggy fleece sweatpants keep things relatively simple, with pearl-like studs decorating the pockets and ankle cuffs. It's a subtle detail that gives an otherwise straightforward pair of sweats a more distinctive look. Pair them with a simple hoodie or tee and let the embellishments do the work.

Inspired by military duffle bags customized by sailors, Samuel Zelig's Duffle Crewneck is covered in tattoo-style illustrations, stenciled lettering, and other hand-drawn details. The graphics include traditional nautical imagery, from pin-up figures to a sailor and a bulldog, printed across a cream-colored heavyweight French terry sweatshirt. With its vintage aesthetic and attention to detail, it's the kind of crewneck that feels like a one-of-a-kind find.

Stolen Arts Institutions Hoodie

Price: $165

Stolen Arts puts a twist on traditional collegiate apparel with this layered hoodie. Vintage-inspired campus graphics and a washed navy finish give it an old-school feel, while contrasting grey-blue sleeves create the look of a short-sleeve shirt layered over a long-sleeve tee. Distressed detailing adds to the vintage aesthetic, making this a solid choice for anyone who appreciates a good thrift-store find without having to dig through the racks.

Samuel Zelig is known for its intricate embroidery and vintage-inspired designs, and these Ballroom Sweatpants are a perfect example. Inspired by Victorian-era masquerade balls, the wide-leg pants feature embroidered illustrations of masks, jesters, and other elaborate imagery. They're made from heavyweight French terry with a faded, vintage-style wash that makes them feel like a well-loved piece of clothing.

At $55, it's also the most affordable piece on this list, making it an easy addition to your winter rotation.
