Best reversible jackets for 2024: Multitasking outerwear from Kitri, Burberry and more

Getting dressed in the morning needn’t be a stressful task, and it won’t be if you invest in a reversible jacket. 

Reversible jackets are a must for indecisive dressers. The versatile layers are a two-for-one take on spring outerwear, thanks to their flippable functionality that boasts two designs to pick from. 

The self-explanatory garments come in a range of styles. Most commonly bomber jacket silhouettes and quilted, collarless designs. However, the odd reversible puffer, sleeveless vest and denim jacket crop up on the market, much to the delight of texture enthusiasts.

Switch-uppable style has been whole-heartedly embraced by the luxury sphere. Burberry has incorporated reversible designs into its latest collections, typically clad in the brand’s heritage check print and acquiring price tags over £1000. Likewise, Gucci has dabbled in double-sided pieces, producing strings of bombers adorned with the house’s insignia GG monogram to be proudly displayed. 

Brands who favour a twee-girl aesthetic are particularly prone to a reversible style. Barbour, Stine Goya, Ganni and Kitri all stock kitsch switchable designs peppered with ditsy florals and pastel colourways. Featuring scallop-trim collars, ribbon tie-detailing, checkerboard prints and boxy cuts, the It-girl jackets are slowly saturating social feeds and London high streets en masse.

In essence, the reversible jacket is a godsend for those wanting to save on space and avoid splashing out on two different jackets.
