Animal fleece drops from £90 to £45 as shoppers rush to buy

Animal has cut the price of its Anna Women's Borg Full Zip Fleece in black to £44.99, down from £89.99, a saving of £45. The fleece is also available in beige and dark green, with both shades reduced to £54.99 from £89.99, saving £35.

Cosy layering for cooler days

The soft, fuzzy fleece is designed as an easy layering piece when temperatures start to dip. The full-zip fastening allows wearers to zip it up to lock in warmth or wear it open over a T-shirt as the weather warms up. Handy side pockets are ideal for keeping chilly hands cosy.

The fleece comes in sizes 6 to 20, although shoppers looking to buy the black version will need to be quick, as sizes 6 and 10 are currently out of stock.

Alternative options

Beyond Animal, another cosy-looking option is Passenger's Women's Ravi Sherpa Fleece (£89.95). It features a warm brushed inner lining, deep hand pockets, an adjustable hem, and it comes in some gorgeous colours.

Otherwise, The White Company's Borg Zip Through Jacket (£125) is an ideal layer for cooler days. It comes in the brand's signature neutral hue, along with an on-trend funnel neck, concealed-zip fastening and elasticated cuffs.

Shopper reviews

The Anna Women's Borg Full Zip Fleece has had some decent reviews from shoppers. One person shared: "A really nice, warm, comfy jacket. Great value for money. True to size; fits great."

Another reviewer removed a star from their feedback, noting: "It is lovely, length perfect, material is very good too." Before adding: "The inside (zip part) could have been finished a bit better though, given the brand."

On a brighter note, one Animal fan said: "Lovely and warm; will be perfect for cooler evenings. I am a size 12/14 - 12-14 was big enough to have a very thick jumper underneath."

For styling, the fleece can be worn with straight-leg jeans and chunky trainers for an everyday look, or layered over leggings and a long-sleeve top for weekend walks. For a more autumnal outfit, the beige or dark green versions can be paired with jeans, ankle boots and a chunky scarf.
