This one is the York Rhapsody Teal Herringbone Double-Breasted Blazer, made in a wool blend fabric. You get herringbone, where the twill reverses to form a zigzag across the whole piece.

Each one's made to order for the person wearing it.

Its composition is 85% wool and 15% silk. Wool breathes, so you'll stay comfortable from morning into evening. A share of silk gives the cloth a little luster. Throw it on over a knit for a relaxed look, or over a shirt and tie when you need more polish. Pair the teal with a white shirt for meetings, or a pale pink one when you'd like some color.

Keep it closed.

You'll wear a blazer more often than a suit, over jeans, chinos or wool trousers. The front wraps across your body, with two columns of buttons and a wide overlap. 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.

You can get the York Rhapsody Teal Herringbone fabric as a suit too.
