Why I swear by shearling jackets

Our fashion editor’s ode to this reliable, year-round wardrobe essential

By

Trust me, the shearling jacket is the ultimate upgrade to your winter wardrobe and beyond – think of it as the new classic leather biker or cozy furry coat, but one that has a boho summery feel and can be worn with chunky cable knit jumpers and floaty dresses alike.

It’s an investment jacket that’s worth making as, no matter the season, this coat would keep you warm and toasty for a winter’s walk or a summer evening event. Whether you love the timeless aviator style, a luxury dupe or just gravitate towards a more relaxed, oversized fit, there’s a shearling jacket out there for everyone.

From sleek, structured silhouettes to effortlessly chic, looser cuts, the shearling jacket effortlessly elevates any outfit. It’s the perfect balance of a timeless retro nod and modern flair, making it a must-have for every wardrobe all year round. Right now, pair your shearling jacket with casual, off-duty jeans and biker-style boots, but come summer, this jacket will embody the boho vibe trending for 2025 – just throw over a floaty dress or lace top and cowboy boots.

As the seasons change, you’ll find it’s just as perfect over a boho-style dress or lightweight sweater in the spring. This versatile piece works year-round, giving you endless styling options. To make your investment even easier, we’ve rounded up the best shearling jackets to suit every budget.
