Shackets from Kohl’s are our new fall favorites!

Heading to Kohl’s?

As the leaves change colors, the temperature drops and sweater weather is in full force! It can be an awkward temperature where it’s too warm for a full-on jacket yet too cold to go outside without one. That’s where shackets, or “shirt jackets”, come into play!

Some of the most well-known shackets are from Free People. As gorgeous as they are, each is priced at around $200! I browsed for other options since that price gave me some serious sticker shock and found out Kohl’s has look-a-likes that are just as nice and an arguably bigger variety!

Currently, there are two promo codes you can stack for both in-store and online purchases that almost cut this in half until October 30th.  🤯 Now through October 30th, use promo code EXTRA20 for 20% off and USAVE10 for $10 off of $50. When purchasing, I also used Kohl’s cash that I already had on my order and managed to save even more, so make sure you sign up for Kohl’s Rewards!

Here’s the deal you can score on this long shacket right now…

Juniors’ SO® Long Oversized Shacket $70.40 (regularly $88)
Use code EXTRA20 (20% off)
Use code USAVE10 ($10 off $50+)
Shipping is free for select MVC Cardholders OR free on $49+
Final cost $48.32 shipped + $10 Kohl’s Cash!


Take a look at the Free People lookalike!

This Free People option is made of 80% cotton and 20% polyester. If you’re looking to splurge, this option is for you. However, Kohl’s version is made of solely polyester and is super thick. It feels like a heavy-quality jacket, and I actually prefer its plaid patterns and colors at Kohl’s over the options at Free People.

At this price point, you can buy four Kohl’s jackets compared to one Free People shacket! 🤯

Although they aren’t an exact match, both options have those same two pockets on the top front. They also seem to be around the same length. If you love the shirt-jacket aesthetic but not enough to spend hundreds, this Kohl’s option is 100% worth it! I loved pairing my cream-blue color with jeans, and I received tons of compliments!

It is also true to size. I am comfortably wearing a medium, and, as a tall lady, I always worry about the length of jackets. The sleeves were perfect! It is a very warm jacket while also being extremely light. If the weather is even remotely warm, you’ll want to save this shacket in your closet for a chilly day.


My Hip teammates Lina and Sara snagged another shacket we’re equally in love with! 😍

Kohl’s has an entire shacket selection to choose from for both women and men, but we seriously all love this specific oversized option. No matter which you choose, you can’t deny this shirt jacket screams fall! 🤩

Here’s the deal you can score on these oversized shackets right now…

Juniors’ SO® Oversized Shacket $54.40 (regularly $68)
Use code EXTRA20 (20% off)
Use code USAVE10 ($10 off $50+)
Shipping is free for select MVC Cardholders OR free on $49+
Final cost $35.52 shipped + $10 Kohl’s Cash!

There are nine colors to choose from. Lina has the Blush Multi color while Sara has the Tan Multi option. The material is the same polyester the long shacket has, and its length is 31 inches. It’s perfect for bundling up or layering a style. You can easily dress it up or down; it literally pairs with everything in your closet!

Here’s the Free People version that costs more than triple the price!

There are some noticeable differences, thought they do look incredibly similar, especially with both having the same spread-collar style. Plus, Kohl’s has a wider selection to choose from!

Sara and Lina are equally loving these shackets!

“These shackets are super cozy! I love the oversized look and ordered my regular size (XS). I really love how soft the insides of the pockets are, too. I’ve already worn it to my boys’ football games and was very comfy and plan to wear it hiking tons with black leggings, a crop top, boots, and a beanie. One note…if your arms are on the longer side, just be aware the sleeves may be on the shorter side. My arms tend to be too small for most tops like this, so I personally appreciate the fit. Also, be sure to wash and dry first as mine shed quite a bit on my black leggings. On the plus side, it washes great!” – Sara


“Okay, well, first off, this is my first shacket, and I am feeling ultra cool and stylish! Haha, what a comfortable warm piece of clothing. It’s so soft and of great quality. I love that you can wear shackets with leggings, boots, or jeans. Love that the back is longer and has great pockets. I do recommend sizing down as I had to. I think runs large. So fun! Love this pretty plaid, too.” – Lina

These shackets are fall-fabulous and Hip-approved!

These jackets are naturally oversized; if you’re someone who normally prefers bigger clothing, I’d suggest ordering your normal size or even sizing down. We each had slightly different experiences with the fits, but, in the end, we each found the perfect option!

Don’t hesitate to grab a Kohl’s shacket (or two) since you can get an incredible deal on them right now. It’s also never too early to start Christmas shopping, and these make the perfect early present for the aspiring fashionistas in your life!


We love this Kohl’s Quilted Jacket, too!
