We’ve made no secret about the fact that buying jackets for fall is one of our favorite decisions of the year. While most decisions are made more difficult by the abundance of choices, we drown happily in the sea of amazing coats and jackets for fall on offer. As such, we’re diving headfirst into the new-season selection of outerwear at Slam Jam.
We’ve picked out 10 jackets that touch every side of the spectrum. From high-end waterproofing by Arc’teryx Veilance through to thick fleece goodness from Sacai, there’s a jacket for every situation. We’ve leaned towards more lightweight iterations, leaving room for a heavier coat for winter. Lightweight jackets are ideal for fall because they allow you to up the layering throughout the season as you move to winter.
Shop 10 of our favorite jackets for fall below.
