Marks and Spencer customers say they have found a “lovely flattering fleece” perfect to wear on cold autumn days. The oversized jacket “receives lots of compliments” and is “very stylish”, costing “a fraction of the cost of similar branded items” according to shoppers.

The Borg Zip Up Fleece Cropped Jacket from the retailer is quickly becoming a favourite among shoppers looking for a lightweight yet comfy and warm jacket for the chilly autumn and winter months, as reported by the Manchester Evening News. Fitness enthusiasts have also said the £45 fleece keeps the user “cosy on your way to and from the gym” while others say they use it as a “casual jacket rather than activity wear.”

It's cut in a comfy oversized fit, which is good for creating a layered look. The funnel neck and popper and zip fastening help to lock in the warmth.

You can also keep your keys or phone safe and secure in the zipped pockets, with one on the chest and two on the side. The jacket is available in sizes six to 24 and comes in three colours - Lipstick, Beige and Printed Green, however, there are limited sizes available in the latter two designs.

It has several glowing reviews on the M&S website, with one customer saying: “Lovely fleece, received lots of compliments about it. Ideal to throw on before the gym but equally ideal to wear whilst nursing the baby. Normally size 8 but ordered multiple sizes and settled on the size 12 as smallish fit.”

A second wrote: “Lovely Jacket! Looks great on and, as it's adjustable the fit is great. I will be a repeat buyer." "Great fleece jacket for throwing on in those colder evenings. I have used as a casual jacket rather than as activity wear," said a third.
