Let the record show that even in 2022 — when we’re returning to some sense of normalcy, returning to the office and returning to dressing up — comfort is still king. But comfortable no longer equates to slouchy, hyper casual athleisure. Today, designers are balancing form and function, resulting in apparel that’s as chic-looking as it is enjoyable to wear. Here are the top 16 comfort clothing brands to shop in 2022.
