Seeing shearling coats everywhere you turn? Same, girl. They’re without a doubt the winter wear of the moment. But the thing about shearling coats is that they’re more than a passing fancy; they’re timeless. As trends go, this is one that’s worth investing in for the long run.
One shearling coat at Target makes for a pretty affordable investment: it’s the Universal Thread Oversized Faux Leather Moto Jacket, a $33 dupe of Madewell’s $748 Oversized Shearling Motorcycle Jacket. Target’s faux version has the same generous fit and vintage aviator jacket style, but the price difference is night and day.

Universal Thread Oversized Faux Leather Moto Jacket
The shearling moto jacket uses the softest, cognac-colored faux leather shell with an impossibly cozy sherpa lining made of recycled materials. The cut is practically the same as its Madewell cousin, with the same wide lapel and stylish boxy fit. There may be a little less sherpa at the hem, but the lined French cuffs roll up for an identical look.
The Universal Thread Oversized Faux Leather Moto Jacket has that edgy motorcycle jacket appeal with a shearling twist, and addresses everything that TikTokers are going crazy for right now: aviator jackets and shearling coats are two of the platform’s hottest categories. Some industry insiders say searches for the shearling aviator have been on the rise since last winter.
Celebrity trendsetters like Hailey Beiber and Rihanna have been rocking their shearling for a couple of years now, but the iconic bomber style we’re crushing on right has Tom Cruise in Top Gun written all over it. Long story short, shearling coats are hot, so a find like this Universal Thread one is truly a score — especially at 40 percent off and in stock in all sizes from XS to 1X.
Universal Thread Oversized Faux Leather Moto Jacket
Pair the Universal Thread shearling coat with leggings, snow boots and a Fair Isle sweater for an aprés ski look or wear it with jeans, heel boots and a leather tote for city appeal. Work the shearling jacket trend any way you choose — a layer this cute dials up the style quotient of pretty much any outfit.
Target shoppers are saying the “modern and trendy” Universal Thread coat is “very warm so it’s great for the cold season” and “the fit is oversized and fits true to size,” so definitely don’t size down; it’s supposed to fit in a perfectly roomy way. “My favorite part was the fur on the collar, so cozy!” another reviewer wrote.
Shoppers have even given the coat an overall 4.6 star rating, in case you need more incentive to wrap yourself up in this cuddly keeper. At a sale price of $33, and with temperatures plummeting pretty much everywhere, this won’t be in stock long.
