The Army Jacket: My Favorite Versatile & Unisex Outerwear Trend for Spring

The Army Jacket is my new favorite outerwear piece for spring. I realize last week I was all about the Denim Jacket, but the Army Jacket is quickly becoming a classic right alongside it. It’s perfect for casual weekend looks and just as cute for dressing down something fancier. I especially love it paired with a tutu, like the girl pictured above. Its versatility is what makes it my favorite!

I also love a trend that works for everyone, and the Army Jacket is exactly that. It’s unisex—and you all know how much I LOVE unisex styles. Military-inspired fashion is everywhere this spring, with camo prints, army greens, and, of course, the Army Jacket taking center stage.

I started this post last week, but with the cold weather across the country, I ended up writing about parkas instead. Now, many sizes of these Army Jackets have already sold out in less than a week! If that’s not proof the Army Jacket is a spring must-have, I don’t know what is.

So, grab an Army Jacket for your little one before they’re gone. I’ve got my eye on one for myself and am thinking I’d better grab it soon too!

This Woolrich Summer Army Jacket  is the perfect jacket for your action packed little one. I love the Military inspired patches, epaulets, and metal snap details.  This is a very Cool Authentic Army Jacket and I love it just as much for a Girl as for a Boy.

This Ralph Lauren Cotton Flag Field Jacket is a ruggedly handsome Army Jacket with plaid lining, a distressed flag patch at the arm, embroidery above the left pocket, epaulets, and a stowaway hood. 

This Boys' Hartford Jarrow Army Jacket is available at J.Crew. J.Crew is one of the only stores in the U.S. to sell the brand Hartford's kids' collection. Hartford was started in 1979 to recreate the vintage 1940s shirts that could only be found at Parisian flea markets. Although this is a boys' jacket, with its refined fabrication and simplicity in design (in my opinion) it is a perfect unisex jacket :-)

This J.Crew Girls' Hooded Downtown Field Jacket is a sized down version of their best-selling women's jacket, just for little ones! It has all the same original military-inspired details as the women's jacket which includes gold snaps and a resin-coated canvas that is water resistant, making it perfect for Spring Showers!
