šļøāāļø The Menās Power Pack: 3 Patterns That Earn Their Keep
Joggers, tee & hoodieāyour go-to showcase for comfort, fit, and performance sewing.

Designer, Co-Author: Rima Bajracharya. Sewing Pattern Secrets, TheSewingBrew.com
At Sewing Pattern Secrets, weāve built a database that doesnāt just cover womenās fashion ā it covers the whole family. From kidsā essentials to polished womenswear to practical menswear, the goal is the same: patterns youāll actually sew, and clothes youāll actually wear.
Thatās why today weāre spotlighting the menās side of the vault: the Joggers, Exercise Jersey Tee, and Hoodie. Together, these three pieces form a complete look thatās modern, functional, and versatile.
Think: weekend walks, outdoor coffee runs, travel days, and casual getaways. Itās not just activewear ā itās a polished outfit that balances comfort and style, and it pairs seamlessly with the womenās pullover we recently featured for a coordinated coupleās look.
This is how you build wardrobes that work ā for everyone.
š SPS Vault: Why This Outfit Works
Menās fashion is usually an afterthought in sewing ā oversized sweats, generic tees, and hoodies that fall apart after two washes. The Performance Trio flips the script. These pieces are designed to look sharp, move with you, and hold up to real life. Theyāre not just āsomething for himā ā theyāre wardrobe staples.
Head-to-Toe Balance ā Joggers streamline the fit, the jersey tee sculpts the torso, and the hoodie layers it all with ease.
Made to Move ā Every piece is built with stretch fabrics and functional details that perform in real life.
Smart Everyday Design ā Drawstring waists, pockets, ribbing, and clean finishes = comfort with polish.
Couplesā Wardrobe Ready ā Pair this menās set with the womenās pullover and youāve got weekend looks handled.
š Pattern Specs at a Glance
Joggers:
Slim-tapered silhouette with ribbed cuffs
Elastic + drawstring waist for comfort and adjustability
Side pockets for practicality
Exercise Jersey Tee:
Contoured fit that flatters without clinging
Clean crew neckline and short sleeves
Perfect base layer or standalone top
Hoodie:
Zip-front with drawstring hood
Kangaroo pocket for function and style
Ribbed hem + cuffs for a structured finish
These arenāt just basics ā theyāre the foundation of a menās wardrobe that feels intentional.

Cotton-Spandex Jersey (Top) ā Breathable, comfortable, and built to stretch.
French Terry (Joggers + Hoodie) ā Lightweight warmth with structure, perfect year-round.
Performance Knits ā Moisture-wicking and durable for athletic wear.
Poly-Spandex Blends ā Holds its shape for a polished, athletic edge.
š” Pro Tip: Sew the trio in complementary tones. Example: charcoal joggers, olive tee, black hoodie.
āļøQuick Hacks to Make It Yours
The best part about this set? Itās easy to tweak for style and fit.
Joggers: Add contrast side stripes or zipper pockets for a designer finish.
Jersey Tee: Open up the neckline slightly for a sportier vibe.
Hoodie: Swap to a metal zipper or try color-blocked panels for a streetwear edge.

š Styling Tips That Always Work
This isnāt just a gym outfit ā itās a versatile menās wardrobe you can style multiple ways.
Joggers + Tee + Sneakers ā The modern casual uniform.
Tee + Hoodie + Joggers ā Streetwear polish that works from errands to travel days.
Layer With the Womenās Pullover ā A side-by-side look thatās practical for weekend walks, outdoor coffee runs, or fall getaways.
One set, multiple ways to wear.
š Perfect Sneaker Pick
Pair this outfit with the Adidas Runfalcon 5 and youāve got smart comfort on lockdown. With a cushy Cloudfoam midsole for all-day support, a breathable mesh upper to keep things cool, and a durable Adiwear outsole built to last, these trainers give your joggers, tee, and hoodie the polish of athletic style without sacrificing ease. Solid for walks, errands, and wherever the day takes you.
š A Thoughtful Note
The Menās Performance Trio proves menās sewing doesnāt have to be an afterthought. Joggers that move with you, a tee that flatters without fuss, and a hoodie sharp enough to wear anywhere ā this is a real wardrobe foundation, not a throwaway project.
Pair it with the womenās pullover and youāve got couplesā looks ready for weekends, walks, and casual getaways. Thatās the SPS Vault advantage: sewing patterns that deliver comfort, confidence, and everyday wearability for the whole family.
Happy Sewing,
Rima
