The days are become shorter and colder, meaning it's time to bring out your favorite jackets. However, instead of automatically reaching for long, fitted, or oversize silhouettes, we suggest cropped jackets: They're a fun alternative to your classic staples. From denim to moto to puffer jackets, this particular style proves that less fabric can go a long way both in comfort and style. Plus, with a shortened hem, it can also completely change the look of your other favorite bold silhouettes to wear, such as maxi dresses, high-rise pants, or cropped tops, allowing for all the pieces in your wardrobe to go a bit further. Without further ado, meet 20 cool cropped jackets that will be sure to elevate your cold-weather style.
