"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
If you read the March issue of T&C, you'd know that barn jackets are the topper of the season. If not, allow us to elaborate: the classic country staple, which is typically cut from durable cotton canvas and features a distinct corduroy collar, is a transitional weather workhorse because it is lightweight enough for those days that start chilly and end warm, but will still keep you insulated when the temps unexpectedly dip 10 degrees (that's false spring for ya!).
The barn jackets of 2024 still retain their signature details we all know and all, but with mini modern upgrades, such as quilted exteriors, patchwork accents, oversized silhouettes, and water-resistant fabrications. Ahead, 15 of our favorite silhouettes to wear for town and country.
