Colorful or basic white? Why not both?

If you’re a firm believer that you can never have too many T-shirts, you’re in luck. There are the higher-end tees (like this crewneck from Robert Barakett with over 400 five-star reviews) along with the more budget-friendly options (like this four-pack from the Nordstrom Men’s Shop that people rave is one of the softest they’ve worn).

2. Jogger Pants

No actual jogging required.

Joggers are arguably the most comfortable pants to ever exist. So we’re thrilled to see there are a bunch of them in the Nordstrom sale. Whether it’s the slim-fit Zella joggers or the cozy fleece ones from Adidas, they’re the types of pants you can wear for everything from working out (hence the name joggers) to kicking back in front of the TV on a lazy weekend morning.

3. Athletic Shorts

Sporty and stylish, all in one.

Nordstrom is a gold mine of men’s activewear, especially athletic shorts. Our shopping director’s husband swears by these ones from Zella because they’re good quality and fit well. Other popular selects include these knit shorts from Adidas which reviewers say are breathable, soft, and comfy (and even have pockets!).

4. Nike Long Sleeve Shirt

Your new go-to workout shirt.

Working out in a long sleeve shirt might sound like a recipe for disaster (so much sweat!) but not if you’re wearing this one from Nike. It’s made with the moisture-wicking Dri-Fit fabric that Nike is famous for and fans like that it keeps them dry yet warm when they’re exercising in cooler weather. They also say it’s great for just lounging around the house, too.

6. Jeans
