As September comes around and the weather starts to get a little chilly, suede naturally comes out. Over the years, we have seen this in the form of suede bags and shoes, but recently, jackets have entered the rotation. And with rich, chocolate brown being the colour of the season, what better way to embody the hue than with a plush suede fabric? A bit more finicky than leather but just as insulating and luxe, we put together our suede jacket picks that match both trends and occasions.

The one that’s currently making the rounds on social media. One thing to keep in mind is that this jacket is not real suede, so if you’re toeing the line between investing in suede or not, this jacket might help you understand if suede has a place in your wardrobe. And on the bright side, it’s a budget-friendly option.
