Sons of Intrigue Large Gingham Blazer – $74.00 w/ code STYLE ($99.00)
Code STYLE takes $10 off $50, $15 off $75, $25 off $100 and so on as a part of the Macy’s Men’s Private Sale (sounds a bit dirty & painful). Despite being $99, the code, for now, takes $25 off the jacket. Shop in store with this pass.
Is this the olive branch Macy’s is offering in case they don’t bring back the INC Ultra Lights?
Cotton, looks to have minimal structure (maybe?), and it hasn’t made its way into all of the brick and mortar stores quite yet. Ships free at $99, but with sales it should drop down to at least $80 if not further.
The contrast is awfully high here. Not as subtle as the still loud INC option from last year.
The red under collar seems to be a Sons of Intrigue “thing” and you’ll find it on some of their other jackets.
Just do yourself a favor, and don’t go testes to the sheetrock with the whole purposely disheveled look. Polo with a light summer blazer? Sure. Works for some. Polo with a light summer blazer where both collars are popped or screwed up to give a “I don’t give a damn look, but it’s obvious that I do, in fact, give a damn” is a big fat no.
Would you wear it? Or is it starting to look too loud? Leave your take below. Also available in a micro pattern in red.
Tried it in and i liked it… It’s got some blue inner lining that exposes sometime when your wearing it. If you can tone it down, it works. Else, get some clown shoes and work the circus!
Yuk.
Dear God NO – but it beats the hell out of those gaudy Madras plaids that yall yall wear!
…disrespectin’ the madras like that…I’ve delivered horse-heads for less.
For 75 bucks I’d consider it. I’d like to see a How to Wear It post on this, though. (more of those posts in general, too!)
Na. Gingham on the inside. Too loud outside.
here’s an example http://www.complex.com/style/2012/03/suit-up-in-mr-bathing-apes-springsummer-2012-collection
Hmm. A big maybe here.
No.
No.
def wear that if it came sized and not s m l xl
YUP. I love that.
Definitely, but it’s a bit pricey when you’re used to thrifts and eBay. I’ll probably pick up a madras at some point.
I’m not sure that I would call that an olive branch…
Undecided.
I’ve got a pair of gaudy red and blue madras plaid shorts – that’s enough for me!
You do need to know the cost of delivering horse-heads to Oz is extremely high, particularly if it needs to be re-shipped because your preferred retailer does not have its own international shipping arrangements.
I like it.
Easily
yep
Nope. Makes me want to have a seizure just looking at it.
Nice summer jacket…if it didn’t have the red on the collar, I’d consider it.
I would definitely wear it with a lighter colored shirt like pink or a sky blue, with a navy tie. White or Khaki pants and some clean white canvas sneaks. and you gotta pocket square it!
I could see Andre 3000 wear it…so I’d totally wear it. Ha! Hey ya!
haha, Def Andre 3000’s style. That or Ed Westwick on the set of Gossip Girl.
I like it, but not sure I’d get enough use out of it. It has a great summer GTH style, which is definitely appreciated.
No thanks. I actually do have a gingham jacket, but it’s in a much tighter pattern and is blue/navy/mustard yellow. Wore it just yesterday, in fact. But this one is too contrasty for me.
It would be a great summer jacket, would look great with a pair of white linen pants and a blue polo.
YES
Hell fawk yea
there’s a red one too I think I like this one better – http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/sons-of-intrigue-blazer-gingham-2-button-notch-lapel-blazer?ID=643706&CategoryID=16499&LinkType=PDPZ1
I’m definitely intrigued. On the other hand, my eyes kind of hurt looking at that picture…. O.o
Thanks for the hot tip Samuel! I already had a blue gingham but that red one is awesome and now on it’s way to me!
That’ll work great for the Humpty costume I’m putting together.
Dang, tax+shipping knocks it back up to around 90 bucks for me
This caught my eye at the store today.
and by “caught” I mean “almost gave me a seizure.
I think it would be fine as long as you were in the sun. Any darker environments and the contrast wouldn’t stand out as well.
“…but its obvious I do in fact, give a damn” but not about this jacket. Just not doing it for me :/
Definitely like the red one more.
bought with the promo code to try it. looks very decent and at 75 beats the price tag on a jcrew alternative.
Just got the Caddyshack reference, very nice, Joe! “Oh, but it looks good on you, though!”
I tagged Dappered on FB with me recently wearing this jacket on an evening out. SOOO glad I found you guys over a year ago. My closet thanks you!
