Sorry to start a new thread, I haven't done it in a while. I made a search and found a similar thread about leather blazers and noticed that they are not much in favour here. Today I made an impulse buy of a Jil Sander leather blazer. It's brand new, from a few seasons ago, absurd retail price of 4000 USD and I paid only a small fraction of that. I was never interested in leather blazers (although I have a few leather jackets) and I do not know if I can pull it off. The price was the main driver. Color is grey/taupe, light and very soft leather, fits slim and the sleeves are too long as for most of the Jil Sander jackets I've seen. I have a Jil Sander cotton suit and a cashmere sport coat with the same minimalist cut, but I prefer lately a less square and more an Italian cut. As you can see in the pics, it's a bit tight in the chest for me. As I cannot return it, I wonder if I should keep it or sell. What's your opinion on this? (CLICK to zoom)
