At the onset of the pandemic, my office-friendly blazers and flats were relegated to the back of the closet, and a new wardrobe hero emerged – the loungewear set. Over the past two years, I've collected a handful of stylish sets while making the transition to working from home, but there's one that continues to stand out from the rest. It also happens to be an internet favorite, and I'm here to confirm it lives up to the hype. 

Vuori, an athleisure brand startup, is best known for the Performance Joggers you've probably seen in ads all over Instagram. And if you haven't, there's a good chance they've been recommended by colleagues or friends at some point. Having experienced both, I was thrilled when I got the chance to try out Vuori's loungewear for Insider Reviews.

It's been a little more than a year now, and I'm still wearing Vuori's joggers on a weekly basis, along with the matching Halo Performance hoodie. While most of my other sets are made from thick cotton, Vuori's loungewear is made from a signature material (called DreamKnit) that's both incredibly soft and stretchy. Even better, it's moisture-wicking and sustainably made from recycled polyester.

Aside from being wildly comfortable, this loungewear set is easy to care for. I've thrown it in the washing machine and dryer numerous times without much thought, and it still looks as good as new. One thing I'll point out is that I experienced some pilling on the interior within the first few months, but it hasn't gotten any worse and there's no way to tell from the outside.

Speaking of looks, that's another reason to love Vuori. While some loungewear can come across as sloppy, Vuori's Performance Jogger and Halo Performance Hoodie are clean and streamlined. There's a sporty element, too, so you could wear these everywhere from the airport to the grocery store to the gym without anyone batting an eye. The hoodie also makes a regular appearance in my video meetings at work.

What's fun about both of these pieces is that they come in a full range of colors and patterns. I own a light blue heather set (currently sold out), but I'm considering adding the camo or solid black set next. And if a pullover hoodie isn't your style, there's a zip-up option too. The sizing runs from XXS-XXL, and I'd personally suggest going one size up. I'm only five-foot-two, but the joggers fall slightly higher above the ankle than I'd like. 

The last thing to consider is price. At $84 apiece, this isn't the cheapest loungewear you'll find, but it's fair for high-quality performance clothing that can withstand plenty of use.

They've both become a core part of my wardrobe, and it doesn't hurt that I've gotten plenty of compliments and inquiries about the set. But don't just take my word for it – you can read about why my co-workers love Vuori here too.
