These M&S spring jackets could pass for designer, but they start at just £30

After raining most days in 2026, the sun is finally out – meaning it’s time to bid farewell to puffers and welcome in the best spring jackets. Insulated enough to keep out the chill but lightweight and airy for sunny days, look to fabrics like linen, cotton, canvas and denim in your outerwear this spring.

When it comes to high street styles that punch above their price tag, M&S is the ultimate destination. It’s no secret how stylish the British stalwart has become, from its fashion-editor-approved dresses and shoes to coveted collaborations with the likes of 16Arlington and Bella Freud.

M&S’s spring jacket collection has just taken it up a notch. Think on-trend funnel necks, cinched-in detailings and bomber silhouettes that rival Loewe, Reformation and Damson Madder. From denim and faux suede jackets that lend themselves to everyday wear, to canvas or cotton styles and trench coats, everything starts from just £30.

Characterised by its pointed collar, cropped cut and check cuffs, the retailer’s sold-out £60 car coat is near-identical to Sezane’s £245 Bobby jacket, while its drawstring canvas jacket has gone viral for looking like Helsa’s £400 faux fur style. For a smarter look, M&S’s collarless, fitted blazers nod to the Frankie Shop and Aligne but are a fraction of the price. Meanwhile, its pure cotton coat rivals Barbour with its stylish and practical cape detailing.
