The 30 Best Jean Jackets To Keep On Rotation This Season

As fall rolls through, there's nothing more satisfying than busting out a lightweight and versatile jean jacket. And, there's a slight bonus this year because your favorite wardrobe staple continues to receive regular updates that modernize the classic style and make it wearable year-round. So make room in your collection of denim pieces — yes, we mean your jeans and denim dresses — because you don't want to miss this effortless outwear. 

Of course, there's nothing wrong with an oversize denim jacket — some might even argue it's the only jean jacket you need. However, with so many adorable trends redefining structured jackets, it's time to reconsider the right style for you. To help in the hunt, we're highlighting the 10 best jean jacket trends, from cropped styles to sherpa-lined versions that you can start adding to your wardrobe ASAP. Happy denim jacket hunting!

Denim Padded Jackets


A comfy, lived-in feeling comes with wearing a plushy jean jacket — after all, the denim is already broken-in and soft. This season, look for styles of the quilted and stuffed variety.
