Winter Olympics Clothing: Stay Cozy & Support Your Team

If your watch-party uniform leans cozy, this Scuba Half Zip nails it with plush, fleece-like fabric and an intentionally oversized fit. We found the roomy cut layers easily over sweaters, and the big hood plus kangaroo pocket add real cold‑day comfort. Our one caution: sizing can vary by color, the hood can feel heavy when unzipped, and the hem may ride up. During our review, choosing your usual size worked, but consider trying two sizes if you’re between.

These are the joggers we reach for when comfort tops the agenda—Vuori’s buttery hand feel is as good as advertised. In our testing, the fit ran true-to-size and the lightweight build packed effortlessly for travel or gym-to-couch days. Our experience shows durability can vary, with occasional loose threads, and sizing isn’t perfectly consistent across batches. If you prioritize softness and all-day ease over bombproof construction, they’re a cozy win for watching events or quick errands.

Rep Team USA daily in Nike’s midweight fleece pullover, an easy layer for commutes, practice, or couch-side viewing. We found the official graphics pop without being loud, and machine-wash care keeps upkeep simple for frequent wear. Just remember it’s a pullover—no full-zip for venting or quick on/off—and the listed colorway limits styling options. At this price, our experience shows it’s ideal for fans prioritizing dependable warmth and clear branding over maximum adjustability or premium technical features.

Simple, cozy, and unmistakably Olympic, this primary-logo pullover is a solid everyday layer for cool weather. During our review, the fleece lining felt nicely midweight and the machine wash/tumble dry instructions made laundry painless. Watch the fit—it can run slightly small—and remember the cotton/poly blend isn’t a high‑performance thermal for deep winter. If you catch it on sale, we found the value strong; at full price, it’s best for fans focused on straightforward comfort and branding.

Wear it as your everyday winter base layer for ski days or cheering curbside—Helly Hansen’s Lifa Merino Midweight hits a sweet spot. In our testing, the merino/polypropylene blend wicked sweat well and kept temps stable, with a true-to-size fit that layers cleanly. The tradeoff is reduced merino content (57%) and faster odor buildup versus higher-merino options. Our experience shows it benefits from line drying; skip the tumble dryer to preserve fabric feel and lifespan.

If you’re layering for early-morning practices or outdoor viewing, the ColdGear Compression Mock brings impressive warmth for its weight. In our testing it wicked sweat and dried fast, and the compression fit felt supportive under a shell. Be aware it runs small—most folks should size up—and the mock collar can feel a bit high and tight during all-day wear. A few users report pilling or thinning after multiple washes, so wash gentle and skip the dryer.

Smartwool’s Classic Thermal Base Layer Top is a winter MVP if you run cold—during our review the 100% merino regulated temperature well and resisted odors day after day. The midweight knit offers reliable warmth, and the slim fit slides cleanly under jackets without bunching. Some buyers have reported durability issues like holes and occasional sleeve or neck oddities, so inspect yours on arrival. Merino typically costs more than synthetic baselayers, and even at sale pricing it can be pricier than poly alternatives.

Training through winter? The Nike Pro Warm top shines as a base layer, with Dri‑FIT fabric and mesh zones under the arms and back to dump heat. In our testing, it kept sweat moving and warmth close, though the slim, body‑hugging fit can feel tight in the arms. Our experience shows it’s best under a midlayer on truly cold days, and sizing can vary, so consider ordering two sizes to dial your fit.

This is the packable puffer we toss in a tote or carry‑on all winter—Patagonia’s 800‑fill down brings excellent warmth for the weight. During our review, it layered smoothly and stuffed into a daypack easily, with RDS-certified down and recycled materials adding sustainability cred. Be mindful of the lightweight shell, which can snag, and it’s not meant for sustained wet weather. Our experience shows occasional down seepage, but performance remains strong as a midlayer or stand‑alone in dry cold.

For brutal cold and messy commutes, the Langford Parka is a fortress—its materials and construction feel a cut above in the hand. In our testing, wind and snow protection impressed, and the fleece-lined handwarmer pockets were a welcome thaw between subway stops. Downsides include a finicky front zipper and a slimmer fit that can limit heavy layering. It’s a serious investment, but our experience shows it’s built for years of city winters and outdoor spectating alike.

Arc'teryx’s Atom Hoody is a go-to midlayer when you want warmth without bulk, and in our testing it packed down easily for travel and quick layering. The breathable stretch side panels kept us from overheating on brisk walks between venues, and its warmth-to-weight makes it comfortable as a standalone in mild cold. Do note the face fabric can be fragile, especially under backpack straps, and a few users report stitching or zipper issues. It’s pricey at $300 compared with similar synthetics, but the mobility and comfort stand out.

When temps plummet for outdoor ceremonies, the McMurdo Parka brings serious warmth and weather protection. We found the DryVent shell with DWR shrugged off wet snow, and the insulation kept us comfortable on long, chilly walks. Fit can be tricky—some sizes feel boxy in the torso with sleeves that run short—and a few users report down leakage after limited wear. The faux-fur trim can also shed, but if you prioritize warmth and waterproofing, this remains a dependable cold-weather fortress.

Ralph Lauren’s Closing Ceremony Beanie brings a premium edge to your fan gear with 100% US-grown wool and made‑in‑USA craftsmanship. During our review, it felt exceptionally warm and refined, with the official Team USA patch and RL embroidery elevating a coat-and-scarf outfit. Be aware the one-size fit runs small and it requires dry cleaning, so upkeep isn’t effortless. At this price, it’s a splurge for dressier game nights rather than a toss-in-the-bag everyday beanie.

Cheer on Team USA while staying warm in the stands or on a coffee run with this New Era pom knit. In our testing, the soft-touch acrylic shell and cozy lining delivered reliable insulation, and the cuffed, one-size design made styling simple. Just note that 100% acrylic runs less breathable than wool, and one-size can fit loose or snug on extreme head sizes. The pom and raised embroidery look sharp but can snag, so handle carefully around zippers and Velcro.

Show your support for the maple leaf—these Lululemon Wunder Puff Mittens were toasty in our review and look undeniably Team Canada. The puffy insulation kept fingers warm during chilly commutes and outdoor watch parties, while the branding earns compliments. Downsides: they’re pricier than many Team Canada mitts, and our experience shows the fabric can feel delicate for rough, daily wear. Several buyers note fit quirks, including an oversized thumb and wrist stretch, so consider trying them on before big events.

Wrap up and rep the stars and stripes with Nike’s Team USA scarf—its double-sided design gives you two looks, and the embroidered applique plus woven graphics feel durable. We found it perfect for indoor watch parties or mild days, though the 100% acrylic build isn’t as insulating as wool in deep cold. Plan for hand-wash care and drying flat to keep it looking sharp. The fringe can snag with heavy use, so be mindful around zippers and bag hardware.

These Nuptse Corduroy Mule Slippers bring serious warmth with 550-fill-power goose down—during our review, cold floors were a non-issue. The foldable heel lets you slide them on as mules, and the rubber outsole is clutch for quick trips to grab the mail. They do run large, so many shoppers size down, and some report premature fraying or construction hiccups. Cushioning is on the lighter side, making them cozy but not the plushest choice for hours on your feet.

For cozy watching sessions at home, we found the UGG Tasman delivers instant comfort with its plush shearling lining and lightweight feel. The durable outsole is perfect for quick dashes outside, and many shoppers say it fits true to size. Keep in mind the suede can stain and it’s not waterproof, so wet sidewalks aren’t its forte. Some wearers experience heel slip—especially barefoot—and with no half sizes, dialing in the perfect fit can take a try or two.

For icy bleachers and snowy sidewalks, Columbia’s Bugaboot Celsius Plus prioritizes warmth and waterproofing you can count on. Our experience shows the construction is burly and confidence-inspiring, though the ankle and sole feel stiff at first and benefit from a short break-in. Some reviewers suggest sizing up, especially if you wear thick socks. It’s not the trendiest ‘softwall’ boot around, but if performance matters more than street style, the traction and insulation make winter spectating far more comfortable.

SOREL’s Caribou Royal is a classic winter workhorse—during our review the waterproof construction and Aero-Trac lugs handled slush and packed snow confidently. The removable felt inner boot adds warmth and can be pulled out to dry or wash after messy days. Fit can be inconsistent, with some buyers sizing down for a better lock, and the overall build feels bulky and heavy for long walks. A few long-term users report rubber cracking, which can compromise waterproofing over time.
