ARKET’s Barn Jacket is Back in Stock for Spring

It’s not often that we get a new jacket trend. Trenches, denim, leather and suede styles are all classics that have been in pretty regular rotation for many years now. But 2024 saw a really fresh new style come to the fore—the barn jacket. In fact, it was ARKET’s barn jacket in particular that flew off the shelves last year and into the wardrobes of the most stylish.

If you don’t already know what I’m talking about, a barn jacket is one of those (usually tan or beige) canvas jackets with a contrasting (usually darker) collar. You might have heard it referred to as a country jacket or chore jacket, and while it used to be synonymous with practical outerwear brands like Barbour and Carhartt, it was elevated to the fashion zeitgeist by The Row and Prada, meaning that now you’ll now find iterations all over high street and designer collections for 2025.
