    The blazer is a style essential that all men need in their closet. And when it comes to casual, comfortable blazers, the UNIQLO Comfort Jacket is worthy of discussion.
    What initially drew me to this particular jacket was its versatility. Essentially, the UNIQLO Comfort Jacket is a relaxed blazer or sport jacket that wears like a comfortable sweater. I knew that I would wear it often as it quickly became a staple in my wardrobe.
    In this review, Khoi covers the style & design, how it fits, jacket quality, comfort & durability, how to care for it, and finally wrap things up with the pros & cons.

    a bit late but almost any tailor can shorten the jacket sleeve especially when it has non-functional buttons, it costs about $30 USD though so almost half the price of the jacket -_- any advise on weather navy or charcoal will be a better choice if you can only pick one? I originally wanted the light grey one but they seem to be not available any more. interestingly the label says the navy is 56% cotton 34% polyester vs charcoal 68% polyester 32% cotton, don't know if it make any different in breathability

    Hi there! I'm wondering if I would like to purchase a Uniqlo blazer for business casual wear (comfort and lightweight), should I go with the Uniqlo comfort jacket or the Uniqlo lightweight jacket? To some extent, if you could provide a few major differences between the two? Thank you in advance! Much appreciated!
