Everything You Need is a Light Jacket: The 40 Best Affordable Jackets for Spring
Regardless of how eagerly we anticipate it, the beginning of a new season always catches us a little off guard. One moment, it seems as though the heavy coat season could last indefinitely, and the next, we're reaching for a light jacket. This abrupt shift in temperature prompts the exhilarating (yet overwhelming) task of reorganizing our coat closets in preparation for fresh spring outfits.
The good news? A couple of adaptable jackets can be worn repeatedly throughout spring—without the need to splurge excessively. I spent most of my weekend exploring our editor-approved selection of budget-friendly brands to present you with the best spring jackets for 2025. Whether you prefer a classic trench or are in search of something more daring, I’ve curated a list of top choices ranging from $20 to $200.
