Fear of God Essentials Hoodie Applique Logo Buttercream

The Fear of God Essentials Hoodie Applique Logo Buttercream takes the classic pullover template and works it in a soft cream‑butter tone that sits between warm beige and off‑white. It feels less like a pure streetwear piece and more like a modern uniform layer, designed to disappear into a neutral palette while still signalling Essentials’ point of view. In a curated selection, it functions as a quiet artifact that links sneakers, denim and outerwear into one cohesive story.

Cut from a cotton rich fleece‑back jersey (around 80% cotton with synthetic for resilience), the hoodie balances weight and drape: structured enough to hold a boxy silhouette but soft on the inside for day long wear. Raglan sleeves, ribbed cuffs and hem, a roomy hood and a front kangaroo pocket build the familiar Essentials block that works over tees and under heavier coats. The SS21 run is known for the slightly oversized fit; true to size gives a relaxed 90s fall, sizing down cleans it up without killing the silhouette.

Branding is assertive but controlled. A black “ESSENTIALS Fear of God” applique or print runs across the chest, giving a strong read against the buttercream body, while a small rubberised label on the hood adds the signature tag detail. That contrast logo is what differentiates Buttercream from the more tonal later drops and makes it read almost archival now, especially paired with aged midsoles and Sail accents.

Within a curated selection, this hoodie plays well with washed blue or grey denim, stone or oatmeal sweats and black technical trousers, acting as a light anchor under darker outerwear. For your kind of rotation, it is the piece you can throw under a Black Cat 4, New Balance in grey or a Moss Essentials set and still keep everything reading intentional and preserved, not random.

To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.

• General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.

• Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
