If you’ve started craving lighter layers but feel it’s still a little too soon to fully embrace warm-weather fabrics, Tu at Sainsbury’s khaki linen shacket might just be the perfect in-between piece.
Yes, it may seem early to be buying linen, but when it comes to a versatile shacket like this, take comfort in the fact you’re getting ahead of the game (and making a savvy purchase before it sells out).
TU Cropped Linen Shacket
Crafted from a breathable linen-cotton blend, this stylish, utility-inspired shacket is ideal for clever layering in the run-up to spring.
Right now, wear it over a fine knit or cashmere jumper with your favourite straight-leg jeans and ankle boots (layer an oversized wool coat on top if it’s really chilly). As temperatures rise, try it with a striped shirt, wide-leg chinos and ballet flats for an easy everyday look, or style it with a white or pale-yellow bubble-hem skirt to tick off one of spring’s key trends.
Come summer, it will become your go-to lightweight layer over vest tops and strappy sundresses, and it’s a versatile travel companion too — perfect for navigating air conditioning, long-haul flights and cooler evenings abroad.
TU Cropped Linen Shacket
Available in four different colours – khaki, brown, stone and black – Tu’s linen shacket is set to become a hardworking addition to your wardrobe rather than a fleeting trend buy. With its affordable price point, it delivers on both style and value — proving that great spring staples don’t have to come with a hefty price tag.
