Jerry Lorenzo’s ESSENTIALS drop focuses on generous silhouettes, plush fleece, and discreet branding for Summer 2025.
Fear of God founder Jerry Lorenzo has never confused restraint with dullness. For Summer 2025, his ESSENTIALS line sharpens that point, presenting a concise wardrobe that returns to the brand’s core promise: refined everyday pieces built to last.
Silhouettes remain the headline. An elongated basketball short opens the line-up, balanced by the familiar roomy hoodie that first drew many fans to Lorenzo’s universe. Proportions lean into the easy drape of 1990s sportswear, yet feel current thanks to the brand’s disciplined palette and precise pattern work. Each piece hangs with intent, turning comfort into clean, deliberate shape.
Branding follows the same low-key path. A new signature logo appears in a scaled-down format for those who prefer understatement, while a metallic version of the stacked ESSENTIALS mark offers a subtle flash without tipping into spectacle. It is a study in measured visibility—emblematic enough to satisfy the faithful, quiet enough for anyone else.
Materials carry the collection’s quiet confidence. Suede fleece brings a plush hand to pullovers and pants; bonded canvas lends structure where needed; nylon rounds out the story with functional lightness. Together they underscore the label’s focus on touch and wear, not just immediate impact.
Rather than chase novelty, Lorenzo refines familiarity. The result is a line that looks as at home on release day as it will several seasons from now—proof that thoughtful basics still rule the Californian designer’s playbook.
