Navy blazer with white trim worth of wearing?

Give your kids a rainbow array of watercolor paints and have them paint the white fringe. Now that would be cool. Or, take the jacket to a great tailor and ask them to dye the fringe - either the same color as the rest or perhaps a slightly different color.

The Prisoner was my immediate thought as well. Light weight, light coloured strides, soft cotton on linen shirt, loafers and you're good for a sunny summer evening beside the sea. I'd probably avoid wearing around Portmerion or whilst driving a Lotus 7 though.

Based on the tag in the photo in the OP, it appears to be made by Rugby. However, they don't appear to be carrying it right now.

Anyone else selling a blazer like this right now?


H&M is.

I saw a sharp Euro looking gent wearing that jacket at Eataly NYC with a white shirt and nice jeans....looked good. Clearly not SF approved but most ppl will probably think it's a fun piece.

Why didn't you just say it was Ralph Lauren to begin with? Everyone could have said they loved it and "wear it in good health" and this thread would have been done on the first page.
