Winter Trend Alert: What Is a Shacket?
You may have heard the word shacket before, but what exactly is it? A shacket is the perfect mix of a shirt and a jacket, offering the warmth of outerwear with the casual comfort of an overshirt. It’s versatile enough to dress up or down for nearly any occasion, whether it’s a work meeting, grocery run, or night out with friends.
Like most fashion trends, the shacket draws inspiration from the past, particularly from the flannel styles of the 1990s. Today, you’ll find shackets in all sizes, colors, and fabrics, making them a staple in modern wardrobes.
According to stylists from Nordstrom, swapping your cardigan for a shacket can instantly modernize your outfit. In cooler offices, it also doubles as a stylish way to stay warm.
And no, shackets aren’t just for women! Versions of overshirts and shirt-jacs have been worn by everyone, from laborers to celebrities, for years.
