Marks and Spencer is spoiling shoppers this year with its stunning autumn and winter collection. The latest garment that has captured the attention of many fashion fans is the retailer’s Hooded Fleece Jacket – and they can’t believe it’s less than £40.
Priced at £39.50, the ‘cosy and flattering’ fleece comes in sizes six to 24 and is available in two lovely autumnal colours – hunter green and oatmeal. M&S says the ‘lightweight’ jacket has been designed to be worn on its own or under a coat when it gets really chilly.
The hooded fleece jacket is a regular fit and has a zip fastening which reaches right up to the top of the neckline to keep you feeling snug. It’s made from a super soft borg fabric and has two handy side pockets, perfect for keeping your essentials close by or your hands toasty warm.
The fleece is part of the M&S Collection – a variety of easy-to-wear wardrobe staples that combine classic and contemporary styles. 77 shoppers have reviewed the jacket to date, with it earning an impressive 4.7 out of five stars on the M&S website.
One delighted buyer awarded it full marks and commented: “So happy with this purchase. Beautiful colour – different to anything I’d found elsewhere. Size is true to typical M&S sizing. Warm and comfortable. Lovely fabric. Incredible value for the price.”
A second said: “Lovely colour and very good fit. I was looking for a jacket for autumn wear and this is just perfect. Well made and good material.”
“Absolutely gorgeous,” wrote another buyer. “Warm and cosy, but not heavy. Love the colour too. Bargain for the money, have worn it lots already. Tempted by the other colour as well.”
One customer is so thrilled with the fleece that they have already snapped up both colours. They explained: “This hoodie is excellent quality. Really thick fleece and a very flattering cut. I bought both colours as I liked it so much. Very warm too.”
Someone else awarded the fleece four stars and said: “Warmer than expected. A lovely colour and a very useful item.” They did, however, go on to say: “I’ve taken a star off for the unfortunately sited pockets on the side seam. They’re big but uncomfortable to use as they’re too far back.”
