Built from a wool blend cloth, the Sheffield Autumn Leaves Forest Green Check Double-Breasted Blazer holds a clean line. The weave shows a check that shows best up close. Skip the tie.

Throw it on over a knit for a relaxed look, or over a shirt and tie when you need more polish. Earthy ties in brown or burgundy work against forest green. If you travel, a blazer is the one jacket worth packing, because it dresses up jeans for dinner and looks right over a shirt and tie for meetings.

On the label, it's 92% wool and 8% cashmere. A wool cloth handles changes in temperature better than most fibers. Cashmere adds softness you'll feel the first time you put it on. With cashmere in the mix, you'll reach for it when the weather turns cold. It's cut to your measurements rather than a stock size.

You'll wear a blazer more often than a suit, over jeans, chinos or wool trousers. The wrapped front draws the eye up toward your shoulders.

Look for a suit vest and trousers in the same Sheffield Autumn Leaves Forest Green Check cloth.
