The jacket is nice and comfortable to wear. I tested it on light rain, I thought it was water resistant actually, doesn’t easily get wet although it is pure cotton. Easy to pair with anything and not too hot to wear either.

Saw this on a friend and had to have it! Ordered in my usual size (usually size down in M&S jackets) and fits perfectly. Love the check lining

The jacket is the perfect length (I’m 5’) and is flattering with any type of jeans.

Cotton jacket

This is unbelievably good quality, is stylish and true to size. The sleeves are a little long but as a design feature is the checked lining it's really not a problem to show more of it off! Will be a very useful addition to my wardrobe. The navy is a good dark colour.

Great quality - as ever from MnS. Very useful - goes with everything. A jacket for that 'cold but not freezing' type weather but with style.

Nice but could be better

I’m wondering about returning as the lining isn’t right it hangs too much out the sleeve even when turned up. Nice material.

I bought this coat as needed a light spring/ summer jacket. It is very suitable for me as i am petite & able to roll the sleeves up to a length that suits me. Love the ' burberry' lining . Have had lots of compliments.

A good quality jacket but very short and boxy. I am petite but it looked dreadful on me. Very wide arms too.

I'm pleased with the car coat, good quality fabric. To me, the photo on the website looked like it sits on the hips but it's actually nearer the waist ie shorter

Stylish coat for spring

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

I love the cropped style of this jacket but I’m only 5’2 so might be too short if you are taller. Otherwise, nothing to fault, perfect stylish lightweight spring coat. Love the contrast lining. Fits true to size.

This is a well fitting, well made and true to size jacket which fits easily over a sweater if I need it to. I kept a size 10 as the 12 was too big ( I’m between sizes). I am petite so being able to roll the lovely cuffs up further was not a problem!! For once on my life!!

This car coat fits a bit smaller, so I had to buy one size bigger. However it's well made and stylish.
