Best shearling & faux shearling coats for women 2023: Toteme lookalikes at Mango, New Look & MORE

Shearling coats never go out of style, but since Totme dropped its now cult leather-trimmed shearling jacket in 2022, they've never been more popular with the street style set. Like a warm hug in a coat, not to mention a classic piece to elevate all of your outfits, it's no wonder we all want to

Shearling coats never go out of style, but since Totême dropped its now cult leather-trimmed shearling jacket in 2022, they've never been more popular with the street style set. 

Like a warm hug in a coat, not to mention a classic piece to elevate all of your outfits, it's no wonder we all want to reach for a shearling jacket as soon as the temperature drops. 

Real shearling is notoriously expensive, but there are lots of faux styles available on the high street that look just as good and are just as cosy - and of course, more ethical.

How to style a shearling coat

Thanks to its viral popularity, we've had plenty of styling inspiration for Totême's shearling jacket all over our Instagram feeds. We love it worn with leather trousers, a Breton top or knitted sweater and cross-body bag like Francesca Saffari and Jessica Skye. Or style it as a tonal outfit like India - there's something so chic about an all-cream outfit in the colder months.

A longline piece would also look amazing paired with a midi dress and leather boots if you wanted to dress it up. It's such a luxe but easy-to-wear jacket, it can be styled with the most simple outfits, like jeans and a tee, to let the coat do the talking - and it will definitely make an impression. 

If you're looking for something more affordable than Totême's designer piece, we've found similar styles available on the high street to see you through the autumn/winter season. 

How we chose the best faux shearling coats

  • Designer-style: All of the coats featured in this edit are similar to the cult Totême shearling jacket, so you can get the look for less.
  • Material: Every jacket is made from a form of faux shearling, also called sherpa or borg.

    Colours available: Ecru, Black

    Shipping: £3.95 Standard Delivery or free for orders over £30

    "When you get constant compliments on a coat, you know it's a good one, and I did on this Mango jacket. I bought it last year and wore it all winter - it's both warm and yet you don't overheat in it. I find Mango sizing tends to run on the smaller side, so I'd suggest sizing up if you want an oversized fit, especially for it to fit over chunky knitwear and sweatshirts." - Carla Challis, HELLO!'s Shopping Partnerships Editor

    With its boxy silhouette, collarless cut and black leather detail, Mango's Appliqués Faux Fur Coat is arguably as close as we can get to the Totême Shearling Jacket from a high street store. It's still in stock in a couple of sizes, but it's selling out fast.

    Sizes available: UK 10-22

    Colours available: Cream

    Shipping: £2.99 for Standard Delivery or free on orders over £50

    Another high street lookalike is this faux fur coat from New Look. Falling just below the waist with and with the addition of a cosy collared neckline, it boasts the black toggle fastening and the cream textured exterior.

  • Pull&Bear Toggle Detail Teddy Coat

    Sizes available: UK 8-14

    Colours available: Camel

    Shipping: Free Standard Delivery

    Pull&Bear's bargain new season camel teddy coat features contrasting black toggles and faux-leather trims to give it that Totême look. The single breasted design is collared and has two functional side pockets.

    Sizes available: UK 4-18, Petite & Regular

    Colours available: Cream

    Shipping: £4.95 Next Day Delivery

    Returns: £2.50 within 28 days

    Run, don't walk - Lipsy has dropped a faux shearling jacket to rival Totême's and it's less than £100. It has a cool boxy cut and lobster clasp fastenings at the front in the same classic cream and black colourway. 

  • Mint Velvet Borg Buckle Jacket

    Sizes available: XS-XL

    Colours available: Grey

    Shipping: £3.99 Standard Delivery

    Returns: Free within 28 days

    Mint Velvet's cosy borg jacket is perfect for those looking for extra warmth. It comes in a chic grey colour with black toggles like Totême's. We love it styled with leather trousers. 

  • AllSaints Farley Strap Shearling Jacket

    Sizes available: XS-L

    Colours available: Cream

    Shipping: Free Standard Delivery

    Returns: Free within 28 days

    If you want to invest in a forever piece without splurging on the Totême original, AllSaints has this similar, super warm cream jacket with black contrasting detail.

    Made from Icelandic merino wool with a contrasting suede body, it has the same relaxed cut and toggles.

  • M&S Borg Lightweight Funnel Neck Jacket

    Sizes available: UK 6-24

    Colours available: Beige, Spice

    Shipping: £3.99 Standard Delivery or free for orders over £60

    Returns: Free within 35 days

    This one comes minus the black details, but Marks & Spencer's Borg Lightweight Jacket proved to be a sell-out success last year, and it's now back in stock. 

    It comes in the same boxy fit and neutral colourway, but has a more lightweight and simple design that's great for layering. It has a zip fastening and can be worn under thicker coats on those really cold days.
