Cult-favorite basics brand Everlane has steadily been taking over as our number one shopping destination for all things sleek, pragmatic, and minimal.

The brand excels at creating timeless styles with a touch of modern flair, and always keeps practicality top of mind when putting out new designs. There's a reason we write about them so much, and it has everything to do with the fact that its clothing, shoes, backpacks, and travel essentials are truly some of the best out there.

Another major incentive is the value. As a direct-to-consumer company, Everlane is able to produce everything in ethical factories with benefits and living wages for workers, all while keeping their costs down and passing on the savings to the rest of us.

So whether you're already a die-hard fan who wants to know what other loyal shoppers are buying, or you're relatively new to the brand and want a few recommendations, we've put together a list of Everlane picks that our team loves and wears in our daily lives.

Check out all the Everlane pieces we swear by below:

The Cashmere Crew

Everlane

The Cashmere Crew, available in 16 colors, $100

I tried to avoid buying this sweater even though I knew I'd love it because I don't typically spend $100 on anything, but the price is just too good. I'm glad I took the plunge because I love it. I wish I had it in every color, but the classic black one I chose is definitely the most versatile color choice. It's soft, luxurious, and warm for cold winter days. —Malarie Gokey, Insider Reviews Deputy Editor

Everlane's $100 Cashmere Crew, without much conscious involvement, became my cold-weather uniform last year — a reliable choice for everything from weekend apple picking outings to groggy Monday mornings. It's unobtrusive, chameleon-level versatile, and both looks and feels good effortlessly. I've had more fun buying statement pieces, but rarely have I ever gotten so much wear per dollar. — Mara Leighton, Insider Review senior reporter

The Oversized Blazer

Everlane

The Oversized Blazer, available in four colors, $170

This blazer sees more light of day than almost anything else I own. It's the perfect way to dress up jeans and a white T-shirt, it looks great over slinky slip dresses, and it can be paired with fitted or wide-leg black slacks for a modern take on a pantsuit. I usually wear a size 10 in Everlane, but I sized down to an 8 for this one so it didn't swallow me, and I recommend you do the same. — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

The Modern Loafer Mule

Everlane

The Modern Loafer Mule, available in one color, $93

I have two pairs of these mules — one in white and one in black (though they come in tons of colors, including new suede options). They serve the same purpose and have a similar aesthetic as their traditional loafers, but with no blistering on the heel — which is a major consideration for someone who walks as much as I do. These took a little bit of time to break in before they felt truly comfortable and walkable, but at this point, they are probably my most-worn shoes. I pair them with everything from denim and a T-shirt to silky slip dresses to plaid pants and oversized button-downs. They're super versatile, sleek, and cute!  — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

The Slim Fit Jean

Everlane

The Slim Fit Jean, available in seven colors, $68

Their men's jeans are an incredible quality for the price. They're comfortable and hold their shape well with just a touch of stretch — not enough to be totally stretched out by midday, but enough to move comfortably with you. —David Slotnick, Business Insider senior transportation reporter

The Pima Micro Rib Long-Sleeve Crew

Everlane

The Pima Micro Rib Long-Sleeve Crew, available in three colors, $32

I love their plain white T-shirts for their comfort, fit, and price, and swear by this Pima Micro Rib Long-Sleeve Crew. It's very flattering, comfortable, and way less expensive than I'd pay for the same thing elsewhere, meaning I don't feel guilty buying white even knowing I'll inevitably need to replace it.  —Mara Leighton, Insider Reviews senior reporter

The Day Heel

Everlane

The Day Heel, available in nine colors, $145

I don't know if a day goes by in our office without at least one member of our team showing up in a pair of Everlane's Day Heels. It's no wonder, because they're incredibly comfortable. The bit of elastic at the back of the heel makes them easy to put on and also helps to prevent stiff leather blisters. I love wearing this red leather pair dressed down with denim and a T-shirt — it gives a basic outfit a fun pop of color and a modern touch.  — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

I currently own two pairs of Everlane's Day Heels (in Natural Suede and Blue Suede). Because the heels are so comfortable and don't require a painful break-in period, they're easy to wear all day long at work, and I find ways to style them with pretty much everything in my closet. Dress them up with blazers, or dress them down with jeans — these are shoes you want in your arsenal, too. — Ellen Hoffman, Insider Reviews Executive Editor

The Day Glove

Everlane

The Day Glove, available in nine colors, $118

The women on the Insider Reviews team have reviewed the Day Glove before, but it's worth mentioning over and over again. The elongated vamp prevents you from feeling like you're going to slip out of your shoes (or noticing that you're wearing them), and the supple Italian leather means they move as an extension of your own foot — like a glove. Smart design hacks like two tiny perforations on the side for ventilation make these markedly better than other flats I own. Since getting my pair in white, I've worn them to work and on the weekends more than any other pair I have.

Given their versatility and comfort, I have plans to invest in a couple more pairs, which is saying something for $100+ flats. All in all, the Day Gloves are the most comfortable flats I've owned, though those that need great arch-support should probably look elsewhere.  — Mara Leighton, Insider Reviews senior reporter

Editor's note: We highly recommend going up a half size.

The Drape Trench Coat

Everlane

The Drape Trench Coat, available in one color, $148

If you're looking for a classic, well-made trench with Burberry vibes, but for about one-sixth of the cost, look no further. This trench comes in khaki, true black, and navy, and incorporates weather-ready details, like a storm flap and water-resistant finish. I break mine out every spring and fall when I need a lighter weight jacket, and it never ceases to garner compliments from coworkers and "Where'd you get that?" from fellow riders on the subway. Here's my full review of the trench coat if you need more information. — Ellen Hoffman, Insider Reviews Executive Editor

The Work Pant

Everlane

The Work Pant, available in six colors, $50

I like these pants more and more each time I wear them. Made of a four-way stretch cotton, the attractive slim fit style manages to balance comfort and structure to a tee. The seam running down the back of the pants provides the polish and poise needed in an office, but because the pants also come in eye-catching colors like Dark Green and Surplus, you can still inject a little more color and personality into your outfit if you want.

While I do also love the M.M.La Fleur Foster Pant, which is similarly stylish, versatile, and comfortable, these Everlane work pants clock in at a quarter of the price — a pretty amazing value. I could stock up on a few pairs of these in different colors and be set in the work pant department. — Connie Chen, Insider Reviews senior reporter

The Day Boot

Everlane

The Day Boot, available in four colors, $135

I couldn't be more excited for the addition of the versatile, stylish Day Boot to my shoe rotation once fall rolled around. I got my normal size and it initially felt a little snug, so I was nervous about the fit, but walking around in the shoes was actually more comfortable than expected. Though I'm not sure I could spend 24 hours in them, I wouldn't hesitate to pull them on to go to work or spend an afternoon walking around the city. The exterior of the boot is wonderfully soft, while the rich Brick color is brighter than typical fall colors and will provide a pop during more dreary days. — Connie Chen, Insider Reviews senior reporter

The Wide Leg Crop Pant

Everlane

The Wide Leg Crop Pant, available in six colors, $72

I'm so happy Everlane came out with a "short" inseam option for these cropped pants. I'm just over 5 feet tall so the original "regular" inseam was just too long on me, but the shorter one makes for the perfect cropped fit. The waist is also really high, which makes my legs look longer, and it doesn't dig in thanks to a small amount of stretch. — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

The Authentic Stretch High-Rise Skinny Jean

Everlane

The Authentic Stretch High-Rise Skinny, available in seven colors, $68

Everlane's Authentic Stretch High-Rise Skinny is truly unlike any pair of stretch denim I've tried before. They're soft and stretchy and easy to slip on and button, but when you touch them, they have the same rugged feel of actual denim. A drawback of most jeggings is that the pockets are sewn shut so you can't even use them, but all the pockets here are functional.

This pair strikes the unique balance that I've yet to find in other styles of jeans, especially at this price point — a flattering, true denim style with a comfortable, stretchy feel that you'll actually want to wear all day long. — Remi Rosmarin, Insider Reviews reporter

The Boss Boot

Everlane

The Boss Boot, available in five colors, $236

I first saw the Everlane Day Boot on an employee while shopping at the NYC location, and immediately knew I wanted them. They're a perfect shoe for someone who values comfort, but wants to look stylish and put together for the office. I find them comfortable for all day wear and they're great for transitioning from day to night if needed. Admittedly, $225 was a little steep for my budget, so I found a used pair on Depop, but if you can swing it they're totally worth it. — Elisabeth Chambry, Insider Reviews strategic partnerships manager

The Rain Boot

Everlane

The Rain Boot, available in five colors, $75

I wear these rain boots a lot during the fall and winter season since they essentially double as regular Chelsea boots that have more cushioning and insulation. Wear a thick pair of socks with them or drop in a pair of shearling insoles like I did, and you've basically got a hardcore winter boot! — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

The Clog

Everlane

The Clog, available in four colors, $98

Clogs are finally cool again, and I've been loving this white pair from Everlane (it also comes in black, Cognac, and a woven brown leather). The heel gives me some serious height but doesn't feel unwalkable at all. The slope isn't steep and I feel like I can walk in them for long periods of time, but the leather is a little tight around my medium-wide feet. — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor

The Day Loafer

Everlane

The Day Loafer, available in five colors, $94

Loafers are probably my favorite style of shoe, and though I have several pairs, these are the ones I find myself wearing the most. The elastic heel means they don't cause blisters, but the one downside is that there's not much arch support or cushioning. As far as sizing goes, I recommend going up if you're between sizes, or if you usually wear a half size. They're a little tight around the toes if you don't.

Alternatively, Everlane has a mule version of these loafers, which I love to wear on days that I walk a lot because they're super breathable. — Sally Kaplan, Insider Reviews senior editor
