M&S shoppers love 'gorgeous' £59 bomber jacket with so many 5-star reviews it sells out twice
With autumn fast approaching, it's time for a wardrobe refresh. The chillier weather is already beginning to sweep the city, so what better time than now to start investing in some cute layering items?
Marks and Spencer recently shared its latest contribution to fall chic with a Padded Bomber Jacket in a toffee colour. The bomber comes in three colours, including the rust look featuring in an Instagram post.
The supermarket shared the £59 jacket to its 2 million followers and it sold out. Fans loved the "quality" and "flattering" bomber and it is in high demand - though some shoppers found it to be much more oversized than they expected.

The high-street store captioned the post: "Tell your wardrobe the good news – The Edit’s latest drop is here." M&S then proceeded to list the outfit details for each look featured in the Reel.

- Bomber jacket – T493026
- Cargos – T591098T
Outfit 2:
- Shirt – T438109
- Jeans – T017017B
Outfit 3:

The bomber jacket is styled in two of the autumnal looks, in a toffee colour, perfect for the seasonal change. Fans instantly loved the item, with one person commenting: "LOVE the bomber."
Another shopper quickly pointed out: "Bomber jacket is sold out online," to which a customer service representative replied: "Don't worry Fiona, we're due more to arrive in Navy on Monday and Toffee is coming back August 28."
If you are desperate to get your hands on the jacket, it is available in black in sizes 6 to 24 (at time of writing). There is a zip and a relaxed fit, making it the perfect addition to an autumn wardrobe when it starts to get a little chillier.
There are even pockets for added practicality. Shoppers loved the look so much that it has previously sold out on more than one occasion.

One person reviewed the jacket, stating: "So pleased I managed to get this jacket when it was restocked. Really love the style and colour. Looks great with jeans and dresses."
A second nostalgic fan wrote: "I love jackets like this, and this one is really good, brings back memories of my teens!" While a third person called it "perfect."
They added: "It will be ideal in autumn months with a blouse underneath and when it gets chillier will be warm. Love the toffee colour proper autumn colour."
However, some shoppers were shocked by the sizing. They said it was much bigger than they expected. One M&S fan said: "Lovely bomber jacket, very oversized though so I sized down from my usual 14 to a 10 and it’s still roomy."
A second person agreed, commenting: "The fit is generous, may want to consider a size down especially if you are not very tall." The bomber jacket rivals much more expensive looks at other retailers.
ASOS is currently selling a very similar jacket at a higher price. The Topshop Premium Real Leather Soft Suede Oversized Bomber Jacket has a spread collar and zip fastening, available in a rust colour.
It comes in sizes 4 to 18 and also has an oversized fit with ribbed trims. There are no reviews for the jacket and it will set you back much more than the M&S dupe at £240.
