Thoughts on felted wool blazers

When is it appropriate to wear a felted wool blazer, I am thinking of purchasing the navy armani felted blazer from saks which is currently on sale. Is it a seasonal wear or could I wear it any time. Will this type of material be more warm to wear than a non felted wool blazer of equal weight?

What is your objective, here? You'd best be young and hang out with a trendy crowd.

I am 23, I just want a casual deconstructed blazer but I didn't know if this type of felted wool is just a trend or if I will be able to continue wearing it over the years.

Whilst I don't necessarily like that example, this is something I'm looking to pick up over winter. There's not strict rules on when to wear one, but I wouldn't fancy it much during hot spring or summer days! Something like the example posted my pass with fading trends, but in principle a felted wool blazer is pretty timeless.
