Oversized denim jackets are gaining more and more momentum in 2020. As a standalone piece, you can't beat a good denim jacket, but when you go the oversized route, you add instant comfort (and to be honest, an instant cool factor). But with so many different styles out there, it's hard to know which one is perfect for you. That's why we scoured the internet to find the very best oversized denim jacket styles out there, including cropped, colorful, longline, and even one with shearling. When picking your style, think about which one makes most sense for your lifestyle. Since you might be spending a little more than you normally would on a jacket (it's an investment piece, after all), you'll want to make sure you'll get a lot of wears out of it. Below, you'll find our favorite picks:
Our editor raves about this particular jacket. She wears it with everything from sundresses to sweatpants, and notes that going a size larger than you normally would adds even more drama to the oversized look.
This denim jacket is 100% cotton, so you know it's comfy. The mid-stone wash is also probably your best bet if you're looking for color that will match with anything.
Available in three different colors, we're loving the longline style of this jacket. It goes past the hips, making it the perfect mate for all of your skinny jeans.
This jacket from Wrangle looks super warm, but it's actually mid-weight, allowing you to wear it throughout most of the year (depending on where you live, of course).
The mid-denim wash here definitely adds a retro vibe, as do the oversized top pockets.
Another longline style, this jacket has nearly a perfect 5-star review from customers. You also can't beat the price.
We spoke a lot about longline, but don't forget cropped. We love the detailing of the dropped shoulders and long, wide sleeves on this piece.
Distressed denim has never looked so good. Reviewers write that they "absolutely love" this piece, and note that it's not stiff, which can be an issue when shopping for denim.
The super boxy style and pointed collar make this piece really standout. It also has a very vintage wash to it, which adds even more style.
Blue or black aren't the only way to go when it comes to denim. We absolutely love the rich bronze color here. Not to mention, the slouchy sleeves are just so cool.
