We’ve reached that awkward time of year when we’re more or less ready for autumn to arrive, while still trying to enjoy what remains of summer. The weather is unpredictable at best, though, and with a new season mindset creeping in, can you really blame us for starting to plan ahead with thoughts of light jacket layers?
There’s plenty of styles starting to drop in the new-in sections right now, from updated denim jackets to classic trench coats, but two years on there’s still one all-weather ready jacket our editors and fellow fashion people are turning to first—Frankie Shop’s Quilted Ripstock Jacket.
