Yes this jacket is as cozy as it looks!! LOL It’s like a big bear hug and fuzzy blanket wrapped up into a jacket. This is the Alo Foxy Sherpa Jacket and it’s been a favorite of mine for 4+ years now. I purchased this particular color during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale a few years ago and still wear it all winter long year after year. This foxy sherpa jacket is a continuous Alo best seller and for good reason. There are a ton of neutral colors to choose from and it’s definitely a coat that you will reach for over and over once the cold weather comes.
Alo Foxy Sherpa Jacket
From the super large (removable) hood to the high collar, this sherpa jacket is my go-to in the winter for running errands and also wearing on the way to/from my workout. I can get away with a tank top underneath it and it manages to keep me warm when I’m darting from my car to the building. The pockets are quite deep and zippered so I can manage to keep my phone, wallet and keys in them if I don’t want to bring a bag. There have been various other styles that Alo has come out with since this launched that are similar and super cozy, but this will always be my favorite style that they make.
What is a Sherpa Jacket?
A sherpa jacket just refers to the material of the jacket. Most sherpa jackets these days are faux fur but have the look of real sherpa which is sheepskin. Sherpa/sheepskin is known to be very warm and cozy so many brands mimic the look and feel of it on jackets, coats and vests. The Alo Yoga Foxy Sherpa jacket is made with faux plush sherpa and has the most luxe feel to it. It’s designed to be an oversized fit so if you are between sizes, I would size down. The ribbed cuffs are another feature I love because the jacket stops at your wrists instead of falling past and getting in the way.

How to Style a Sherpa Jacket
Jacket – Alo Yoga (also available here)| Leggings – Alo Yoga (my color is no longer available but they have tons of other great colors to choose from, they run true to size) | Sneakers – Nike (similar style here)
I personally like to keep the styling of this Alo Foxy Sherpa Jacket more casual. Removing the hood can definitely elevate it a bit. But for me this is what I grab when I want to be comfy in my leggings or sweats. Here are some tips on how I would style it:
Style it with leggings
My go-to option for wearing this sherpa jacket is always leggings. Because the fit is so oversized, I love how it looks worn with leggings to create a balance to the entire look.
Slim joggers
If you are going to opt for sweatpants or joggers, go for something with a very slim fit. Wearing pants that are too baggy or oversized will not pair well with a jacket that is so boxy and roomy.
Choose sneakers or some fuzzy sandals
Obviously sneakers are my first choice when wearing this jacket, but I have been loving the look of fuzzy sandals or slides too. I will throw on some socks and then a fuzzy sandal/slide and it’s the perfect complement to the cozy look of the jacket.
In addition to the foxy sherpa jacket, I am also obsessed with the fit of the Alo Airlift High Waist Leggings. They are comfortable yet suck everything in and have an amazing slimming effect. They are one of Alo’s best sellers as well and after owning a few pairs, I can completely understand why. There are a few different lengths but the 7/8 is perfect for my height (I’m 5’4″). If you are in need of a new pair of workout leggings, I cannot recommend these enough! Alo has also released newer styles of this fleece jacket but the Foxy Sherpa is still my favorite.
