Since Love Island has been back on our TV screens, there's something we can't help but notice. And perhaps you've noticed it as well. Want to know what it is? Drum roll please... it's the clothes - we keep seeing the Islanders in the same clothes.

So far, we've had, a Versace triple whammy with the girls, where Tanyel, Olivia and Ellie were spotted wearing items previously worn by THEE fashion icon Tasha. Hopefully that sexy blue latex outfitand stunning yellow satin co-ord spring to mind. Let's not forget to mention Lana at the 90s themed party, rocking a white dress that 'it girl' Indiyah wore last series- yes, Versace once again!

And now the boys are following suit. Sharing love interests has now turned into sharing clothes! They're making pre-loved look cool through upcycling items from brands like Ralph Lauren and Nike.

But one item that has caught our eye, is this retro jacket which has been worn a total of 5 times on the show, the Oakland Athletics green satin bomber.

This was first seen last year on islander Andrew Le Page on Halloween. And now this season, we've witnessed Jordan, Tom, Kai and Shaq all step out in the Oakland Athletics green satin jacket. Sharing is really caring!

And Amy Bannerman, the Ebay-obsssesed stylist, behind this years looks said: "I love seeing how the male Islanders are sharing pieces and styling the same items in so many different ways this year- it really is the best way to champion pre-loved! As we’ve seen throughout the series, vintage bomber jackets are a huge hit, I chose quite a few of these because not only are they super stylish but are essential for the cooler evenings in the villa. They’re also really versatile as we’ve seen the girls wearing them too!”

Great news for you, if you love this piece you can get a similar one on the Love Island hub on eBay UK.
