Roman shoppers rave over ‘light but cosy’ sherpa fleece jacket

With the weather turning cooler and jumpers no longer quite doing the job, a good fleeced jacket is a welcome mid-season layer. They’re warm, but not so bulky you feel weighed down. This Roman soft sherpa fleece jacket priced at £28 has found fans for exactly that balance, with many praising its ability to keep things cosy without feeling heavy.

The jacket is made from 100% polyester sherpa fleece, giving it a fluffy, soft texture that feels gentle against the skin. It’s lightweight, making it easy to layer under coats on colder days, or wear on its own during milder spells. Reviewers on retailers like Very describe it as “a lovely jacket that gives me warmth whenever I need it”.

It has a neckline that can be zipped or folded, so you can adjust how snug it sits around the neck depending on the chill. The cut is intended to be a standard length and according to reviews it doesn’t fall too long, so it won’t interfere with trousers or skirts.

Inside you’ll find useful pockets. It comes in nine other colours and is available in small to extra large – to fit sizes 10 to 22 – and is handily machine washable.
