Best blazers for men in 2023, from double breasted to corduroy

You may be under the impression that the blazer is reserved for bankers in the city and school uniforms, tied up in unfriendly worlds of formality and restriction, but we’re here to tell you that the (better) half of a suit can be so much more than that.

The lynchpin of a man’s versatile smart casual wardrobe, the blazer is there to add a layer of sophistication to any outfit in an instant, whether it’s the classic jeans and T-shirt combo, a rugby jersey and trousers, or even a tracksuit. Offering a sharper, more elegant silhouette than any other jacket, your otherwise casual look is given an elevated sartorial upgrade.
