You know it, I know it – spring is slowly but surely on its way, which means there’s no better time to invest in the perfect spring jacket. A task which, I admit, I have always found surprisingly difficult. Choosing between a chic bomber, a classic trench or a country-inspired barn jacket has never felt so complicated, and while I’d ideally invest in all three, this season I’m focusing on one thing: a high-quality jacket that transcends trends, I’ll always love and will become a true wardrobe staple.
After spending a lot of time scrolling, saving, and analyzing what the most beautiful women are wearing on my Instagram feed, I’ve noticed that there are three key, under-the-radar brands that fashion people constantly come back to – true “if you know, you know” labels that specialize in timeless, beautifully made outerwear.
Starting with Rohe. The Amsterdam-based label has quickly become a go-to for elevated basics, but its jackets are where it really shines. The Reinvented Leather Jacket – a classic bomber reimagined with a sculptural funnel neck and elastic waist – feels modern yet timeless, while the Panko Jacket, with its collarless design and toggle fastening, has a distinctly Scandi feel that makes it perfect for spring layering.

Noor Hamour has also become a favorite of the fashion world. Specializing in leather outerwear, the brand is known for everything from leather trenches to beautifully cut bomber jackets. Finally, a brand that has been quietly on the rise for years: Totem. The Stockholm-based label has become synonymous with quiet luxury, especially when it comes to outerwear. Perfectly cut trench coats, impeccably tailored jackets and timeless silhouettes are the things the brand does best, and these are pieces that never go out of style.
