Ideal for basic, everyday pieces to rotate across your wardrobe, Uniqlo offers clean minimalism, boxy silhouettes and incredible quality on a budget. Since it's expansion of stores in the UK, the brand has been firmly on our radar, and we've been seeing it everywhere ever since. One piece I've had my eye on is the Uniqlo Zip-Up Short Jacket, and it's gained viral traction with shoppers. It's already sold out in one colour, and the other variations are quickly following suit.

It might seem too early to think about, but people are already searching for autumn outfits online. This short, zip-up jacket is ideal for summer to autumn dressing and transitional seasons where your evenings might become a little bit chillier. After all, September is only around the corner, and this lightweight jacket is effortless to throw over all of your outfits - especially at this time of year.

Available in sizes XXS to XXL, Uniqlo's Zip-Up Short Jacket nails transitonal dressing with colours black, natural, olive and navy denim still avaiable to shop now. Get yours before it's gone.

Made from a breathable cotton blend, this daytime jacket is available in colours of black, natural, olive and navy denim. Our personal favourite, the beige jacket, has already completely sold out across all sizes - so we're keeping our fingers crossed for a restock. It sold out alarmingly fast after going viral online, with fashion enthustiasts racing to snap it up in the sought-after colourway.

The black variation is reminiscent of an iconic Harrington style jacket on a budget, and it's styling potential? Endless. Personally, we'd love to see this styled with a polo top and a pair of jeans or even trending bermuda shorts for the summer. However, there are so many ways you can wear it. If you've been looking for a casual jacket, this one needs to be in your basket, stat.

One of its main features is it's corduroy cuffs which add a pop of texture and warmth to your overall fit. It makes a fab feature with your sleeves are rolled up, but you can also leave the sleeves down. This jacket has versatility written all over it. Generously sized, handy side and chest pockets make it practical as it is stylish, meaning storing your essentials is a breeze. And, its crisp fabric means that the jacket keeps it's boxy, structured shape.

Reviewers say, 'Very excited to wear this jacket in the fall. It fits so well and you can dress it up or down. Great quality I love this jacket. The black looks more expensive than it is,' with another racing to add, 'It is short and slightly oversized. It goes well with almost everything. A bit casual, a bit elegant, very versatile. The cotton is great, what you need in the cold summer days.'

I've been seeing this jacket practically everywhere on my feeds, from high-end fashion publications to influencers on Instagram. It's clear that everyone wants this jacket for the season ahead. However, with my favourite colour already sold out, I'm on borrowed time to shop the beige version instead.

If you love the jacket just as much as (pretty much) everyone else, we recommend you shop it soon. It won't be long before the other colours are sold out, too.
