I prefer the NL one.
Quite frankly I’m distracted by the models knickers in the Zara one, not a good look.

Peaceandquietandacuppa · 15/05/2025 19:36

Definitely the New Look. I think the chore coat shape is more current. The Zara one looks more like one I wore 10/15 years ago.

Peaceandquietandacuppa · 15/05/2025 19:38

I’m currently wearing this one and love it https://www.ralphlauren.co.uk/en/cropped-denim-car-coat-658731.html

Which denim jacket is nicer?
2chocolateoranges · 15/05/2025 19:43

I prefer the shape and colour of the new look one.

i don’t like the curved hem of the Zara one.

Mimilamore · 15/05/2025 19:51

Really like them both but maybe would go with the Zara one if I had to choose

3luckystars · 15/05/2025 19:57

I prefer the Zara one but like it in the green colour. Thanks for posting x

SilviaSnuffleBum · 15/05/2025 20:28

I really dislike the NL one. Not my style, but definitely prefer the Zara jacket of the two.

Nomoreidea · 15/05/2025 20:32

They both look like shirts. Maybe that's the point?

Imogene · 15/05/2025 20:37

I like the Zara one

mdinbc · 15/05/2025 20:37

If you get the Zara one, you have to promise to wear it with your bikini! haha, I actually think the NL one is more practical.

Sunshineandgrapefruit · 15/05/2025 22:33

I don't like either! Sorry.

Catwoman8 · 15/05/2025 22:47

Of the 2 choices, the new look one. I don't like the curve cut of the zara one, it just looks a bit odd.

NetZeroZealot · 16/05/2025 09:30

I like the NL shacket. Didn’t know that kind of denim was back in though.

chatw0o0p · 16/05/2025 09:36

Zara in Khaki.

ApoodlecalledPenny · 16/05/2025 11:45

I really like the Ralph Lauren one. Both of the ones in the op look like they’d be shapeless on. But the RL one is out of stock so moot I guess.

Onelifeonly · 16/05/2025 11:46

I don't like either. They look more like shirts. I prefer a jacket to have more structure. And own a trad, short one myself.

themumformerlyknownas · 16/05/2025 12:25

I'd go with Zara, OP - it looks a bit better structured and longer lasting than the New Look one.

OurManyEnds · 16/05/2025 12:26

Don’t love the boxy shape of either really, I prefer something a bit more fitted or they absolutely drown me.

DuchessOfNarcissex · 16/05/2025 12:34

@themumformerlyknownas , I prefer that style. They seem to be a bit more perennial than the shirt-jacket style.

RampantIvy · 16/05/2025 12:38

themumformerlyknownas · 16/05/2025 12:25

With that said if you're in need of a denim jacket and you're willing to look elsewhere... I LOVE my M&S one!

https://www.marksandspencer.com/pure-cotton-denim-jacket/p/clp60640953#intid=pid_pg1pip48g4r3c2

That's the one I have. I love it and have worn it so much. I bought it 5 years ago during lockdown.

thegirlwithemousyhair · 16/05/2025 18:36

Definitely the New Look. Its different and less stereotypical of denim jackets. Dont like the Zara.

Globules · 16/05/2025 18:39

I prefer the NL one. I'd be too worried I'd end up in just my knickers wearing the Zara one.

I don't like either though tbf. I still prefer the style of my denim jacket I wore today that I bought in about 2005ish.
