The days of the fleece jacket serving the sole purpose of hiking, camping, or other outdoorsy activities are over. This warm, cozy, blanket-like piece of outerwear has entered the fashion space by way of cool brands like Sandy Liang and even athletic labels across the spectrum have stepped up their game in terms of aesthetics and design. So whether it's via a designer label like Isabel Marant or an O.G. fleece from The North Face, you’ll be adding a stylish touch to your comfy attire. And as Who What Wear's resident cozy girl, I firmly believe that you should never have to sacrifice fashion in the name of function.
To make those chilly mornings easier for you, keep scrolling to find your fleece jacket pick. With one of the options below, you're guaranteed a very comfortable fall, whether you're heading for an outdoor adventure or simply want to cuddle up on your couch.
