Coat and jacket season is upon us once again, yet tracking down the ideal cover-up that ticks both the practical and stylish boxes can mean spending countless hours trudging around the high street. However, shoppers reckon they may have stumbled upon one of the high street’s ‘best’ buys in the shape of a jacket from a brand reportedly favoured by the likes of David Beckham.
Lyle and Scott’s jacket range has proved a hit online, with men singing their praises for their ‘high quality’ material and ‘perfect fit. ‘ One of the retailer’s more wallet-friendly designs is its Water Resistant Hooded Jacket, available in a variety of colours.
Retailing at £95, the jacket is stocked in sizes XS-XXL and is described on the brand’s website as a lightweight option, making it a cracking choice for soggy autumn days or for layering up as temperatures drop. Boasting a water resistant outer shell with an adjustable drawcord hood, it’s tailor-made for the unpredictable downpours that have been battering the UK recently – and two colourways are even slashed to half price at £47.
