Alan Flusser Men´s Cotton Blend (2) Button Luxury DENIM Blazer

Amazing Creation 1/2 LinedThe separate, or “odd” jacket, developed in the early decades of the 20th century as an organic reflection of the growing phenomenon of leisure time. No longer entirely constrained by more formal dress codes of work or worship, men of the growing middle class found themselves free to indulge a little whimsy in their wardrobes while remaining firmly within the emerging standards of modern male dressThe BlazerThe first odd jacket, intended to wear to sporting events, the beach, or just a day in the park with the family, was simply the top half of the then-ubiquitous navy serge suit, worn with contrasting white trousers. A century later, the navy blazer remains the most versatile single garment in a man’s wardrobe, able to be smartened up with pressed trousers and a tie, or dressed down with denim and an open collar. The metal-shanked buttons which traditionally connote a maritime or club affiliation are by no means de rigor for a man seeking a more understated look; contrasting horn or mother-of-pearl works just as well to distinguish a blazer from a navy suit jacket.With the relaxation of workplace dress codes, the odd jacket is increasingly assuming a professional prominence as the most formal element in many men’s wardrobes. The inherent elegance of the sportcoat’s tailored shape, combined with the virtually limitless selection of clothe in which it can be rendered, ensures that it has a bright future on both sides of the commute.
