'Definitely need this': Shoppers vow to buy one (or two) more of this viral item

As the temperatures drop, Kmart is keeping shoppers cozy and stylish with the return of a fan-favourite jacket.

What makes this release even more exciting? It’s causing quite a buzz, and for good reason.

But it’s not just the jacket that’s capturing attention—another unexpected trend is making waves.



As the cool weather rolled in, Kmart's Sherpa Patch Jacket made a comeback, quickly capturing the attention of shoppers across Australia.

Priced at just $28, the jacket became a must-have item, selling out multiple times in stores nationwide.

Made from a blend of teddy fleece, sherpa, and crepe fabric, it was a budget-friendly alternative to more expensive versions.

Its design included a high neck with snap button closure, long raglan sleeves, and a woven flap detail, along with two zippered side pockets.

Available in sizes six to 20, it was touted as a versatile piece that flattered a range of body shapes.

The jacket's re-release sparked excitement on social media, with fans praising its sleek design.

'Definitely need this,' one excited shopper commented.

'This looks SO comfy. I need it,' another shopper gushed.


Kmart fans were also quick to rave about the jelly flat trend, with the retailer launching their own $8 version of the footwear.

This trendy item hit the market just as jelly shoes had made a big comeback, thanks to a luxury designer's take on the classic shoe style.

The Row's 'Mara' netted jelly sandals, part of their Summer 2024 collection, quickly sold out after being released for a hefty price tag of US$890, or around AUD$1450.


Kmart’s affordable alternative, the Ballet Shoes, was soon spotted in various shades, including clear white and fiery red, drawing comparisons to the high-end version.

'I love mine, wear it all the time,' one fan posted on social media, tagging their friends to share the love.

Both items—a chic jacket and the trendy jelly flats—had Australians flocking to Kmart for their seasonal must-haves.
