Looking for a spring jacket to take you through to summer? Look no further.
The sun is shining and summer is well and truly on the horizon, which means it’s time to pack away the winter warmers until Autumn (see our guide on how to care for wool for tips!) and bring out your more seasonally-appropriate clothing from storage.
Although your trusty winter coat might now be a touch on the ‘too warm’ side, the chilly days and April showers mean stepping outside without a jacket on is still not advised. If you find yourself in the position where you need to invest in a new lightweight jacket for spring and summer (that is also ethically-produced of course), here are some of our favourites:
Keiss Jacket, £95, Finisterre
Finisterre’s workwear style Keiss jacket is perfect for warm spring days and summer evenings, made from 100% organic cotton canvas with pocket details taken from miners’ jackets. We love!
