Fashion is no stranger to hybrid trends: the tankini [1] (tank top + bikini), jeanos (jeans + chinos), coatagin (coat + cardigan) and so many more. Allow me to introduce you to the latest, the shacket. This hybrid - slightly oversized, boxy and of thicker fabric - is the perfect union between shirt and jacket [2]. It's a staple you won't be able to live without this fall [3] and winter.
Not lightweight and not overly bulky, the shacket is ideal for fall when the weather isn't terribly cold and equally fitting as an added layer under a jacket or coat during the winter. It can be worn with bike shorts [4], basic tees [5], and jeans, or buttoned up as a dress [6] - doing all of the styling for you. Fall mornings can feel a lot colder than the rest of the day and the shacket is the perfect wear-right-now solution. Shop ahead to see how our favorite influencers are styling and some key places to buy.
