It’s been almost a week since the new INC Cord Blazer first appeared on Dappered and it’s received nothing but praise. Note to INC: more of this kind of thing. Less of this. But is the INC cord blazer really the right blazer for everyone? And how does it measure up to the noticeably cheaper Old Navy corduroy blazer? Old Navy is one of the best places to find casual cotton blazers at ridiculously low prices. And through today you can pick up the Old Navy Cord blazer for under $40 with the 20% off code ONBDAY20.
That’s a tempting price, but no matter how good the deal, it’s a bad buy if you get it and never wear it. To help prevent that from happening, a field trip was made to Old Navy for an in person fitting. Did it for the INC, and the Old Navy deserved a fair shake. After trying it on we fired up our well worn copy of MS Paint and got to work. Follow the flow chart below to figure out which of these two blazers would be the smartest addition to your closet.
*Disclaimer: Of course there are exceptions to every rule. So if you’re on the fence, be prepared to return it.
Hope that helped. And don’t forget, to get 20% off at Old Navy through today, use the code ONBDAY20
