Choosing a Blazer

The blazer jacket has been making resurgence and it is understandable as it offers strong classic attire for smart casual wear as well as being well suited for wear with any style of jeans to moleskin trousers, or a pair of slacks or cords. The leather blazer has an added advantage that it mixes and matches well with a wider variety of materials and textures than cloth blazers.
