The Best Lightweight Jacket Styles to Wear This Spring, From Truckers to Trenches

The Denim Jacket

Ask just about anyone what kind of coat they most associate with spring, and chances are, you hear “denim jacket” more often than not. Sturdy and full of character, a hearty denim jacket is as classic a spring style as they come. True to its centuries-old heritage, Levi’s Type 1 Trucker is particularly solid for the season ahead, with a vintage-inspired look and cinch back for an adjustable fit.

The Shacket

The lowly shirt-jacket may seem like a lightweight afterthought, but when spring’s blessed rays break through, you’ll be glad you have an easy-on layer to enjoy them in. Versatile, lightweight and industrious — that’s the shacket way.

The Leather Jacket

Spring is also a great time to bust out old faithful — that is, your go-to leather jacket. In the event you don’t have one, now is the time to invest. Sure, at a grand it’s a real investment, but the payoff is looking like a badass rockstar for the rest of your life.

The Harrington Jacket

Even oggled at an old photo of Steve McQueen or Paul Newman? There’s a strong chance that said picture probably included a Harrington jacket. Sporting flapped button pockets and retro high-button collar situation, it’s a devilishly unique way to signal that yes, you might indeed own a boat. Or at least know how to sail one.
