Navy Blazers redux

[cjl]

Which of these would work best with a pair of pressed Bonobos Graham Slackers for a casual office setting?

Or something else?

Too bad that J.crew Factory got rid of the chino navy blazer. It is my favorite blazer.

To me the Bonobos looks the nicest, but it is pretty pricey.

Whichever is in your price range and fits the best


Just for the sake of discussion, I'd probably go with a cotton blazer because the Graham Slackers are a more casual pair of pants. I say this because the seams have exposed stitching whereas "dress chinos" generally don't (the stitching is on the inside). I think that gives a sleeker look that goes better with a wool blazer, but honestly most people won't notice.

I actually have the J Crew cotton blazer but I bought it in 42R and probably needed a 40R. It looks really casual paired with those pants, arguably too casual for my federal government office. Will put it up here for sale if I manage to find a better alternative.

This one is my favorite.

It's definitely casual, and might run a little large, but the color is great, and the solid cotton feel is excellent.


It has a bit of a worn-in look, but not in a distressed sort of way. LL Bean is easy returns, too.
