Next shoppers hail 'lightweight' £29 shacket as 'perfect' for cooler weather
Next customers have been rushing to purchase a £29 shacket that's ideal for those in-between weather days when it's chilly, but not cold enough for a heavy coat. A shacket is the perfect blend of a jacket and a shirt, providing a light outer layer to fend off the slight summer chill.
The Corduroy Lightweight Shacket is available in three different colours: navy blue, neutral, and pink. With a 4.3 out of five overall rating in the product reviews, the shacket features a shirt collar detail with button fastening and an oversized fit.
The full product description on the Next website reads: "Versatile neutral shacket which can be worn for a casual weekend vibe, or lounging around in." Meanwhile, New Look is offering a Cream Button Up Long Sleeve Shacket for £34.99, available in three different colours.
Customers have commended the jacket for being "lightweight" and "comfortable", reports the Liverpool Echo. H&M is also retailing an oversized shacket for £32.99, featuring dropped shoulders in a soft weave with a collar. The item can be purchased here.
Coming back to the Next Corduroy Lightweight Shacket, one customer review on the brand's website read: "A lovely subtle pink colour. Looks smart. Very soft material. I sized down as very generous."

With three colours available, this lightweight hybrid layer is said to be ideal for casual dressing, as well as lounging around in.
While another buyer commented: "Lovely lightweight but costly shacket, perfect for cooler nights or those in-between days when you don't need a coat but feel a bit cool without one.
"Fabric, colour and length are perfect. I sized down as previous people said they came up large and I'm glad I did as I think a bigger size would've looked shapeless."
Not all customers were pleased with the 'oversized' fit, with the sentiment echoed in a review: "Was way too big and didn't suit. Lovely material though."
Meanwhile, yet another shopper gushed: "A great over jacket or use on its own for the milder spring weather. Good quality and perfect pink shade. On trend for this season."
