The camera might add ten pounds, but a good tailor will make you look like you lost twenty. You’re looking at the exact same 40R Banana Republic Tailored Fit Blazer
While I usually wear a 38R in Banana Republic’s roomier “Modern” fit, there’s no chance of squeezing my shoulders into anything less than the 40R in the tighter “Tailored” line. This jacket in the 40R fit my shoulders perfectly, but even with my wider torso, I just had way too much room in the middle.

Pretty straight forward job. I took it to my (incredible) tailor, she “pinned me up” at the sides, and I gave it the ol’ hug test. I crossed my arms as if I was going to hug someone, didn’t feel much if any pull, took it off, and handed it to her.
It’s not quite Dom Deloise to Hulkamania, but the final shape is well worth the money. Even after taking in the sides a good amount, it’s still perfectly comfortable thanks to the shoulder fit and high enough armholes.
The jacket is 100% cotton, has a micro stripe that you can’t see unless you’re within a few feet, looks light blueish-grey otherwise, and comes with non functional button cuffs. Works terrific with jeans and just as well with chinos. Great to wear now since it’s hot but isn’t limited to summer use by any stretch. Sizes are getting scarce.
