Sporty, Unexpected, and Unquestionably Cool—The Outerwear Trend That Will Supercharge Your Spring Wardrobe

There are plenty of jacket trends to get excited about this season, but none feel as fresh, cool, and unexpected as the sporty jacket. Yes, the toppers that dominated on the spring/summer 2025 runways seemed to be ripped straight from the world of sports—offering the perfect combination of functionality and style. Think windbreakers, anoraks, track jackets, soft shells, and zip-ups styled with everything from delicate dresses to chic tailoring, giving us a fresh perspective for our spring styling.
At Miu Miu, colorful track jackets took the spotlight—layered over button-down shirts and contrasted with pleated midis. At Prada, bright anoraks were paired with shiny silver dresses, and at Gucci, simple yet striking olive-green funnel-neck zip-ups reigned supreme. Other designers such as The Row, Ferragamo, and Burberry backed the trend, solidifying the sporty jacket's status as the It piece to shop this spring. Who doesn't love a comfy way to be on-trend?
If you want to supercharge your spring wardrobe, then keep scrolling below as we share some of our favorite jackets that exude a sporty sensibility and to see how fashion people have been styling theirs this season so far.
