Pros
- Super comfortable and durable
- Works in a range of temperatures/seasons
- Plenty of storage for personal belongings
- Easy to style with casual fits
Cons
- Can get wrinkled a bit IF not properly packed (fold or use garment bag)
In the past year, our style team tested dozens of travel blazers for functionality, but Relwen has it in spades. Right off the bat, we noticed that its fabric is super lightweight and comes with enough stretch to let you move beyond limitations. A four button design plus a throat latch allow you to button all the way up to your neck like a true jacket, while functional buttons on the sleeves allow you to roll them up. That means this blazer covers a very wide range of temperatures.
Also, there’s woven-tape back reinforcements, so this blazer is way tougher than others and can handle being tossed around your suitcase without falling apart. As for storage, the three exterior patch pockets are similar to any casual blazer, but the large interior pocket has a zip closure with a vertical opening for easy access. It is ideal for stashing valuables.
On top of being a solid choice for away seminars or long flights, this option is great for everyday wear. We found that this flexible blazer looks great for cool evening strolls, dinner dates, and outdoor weddings. No doubt, it can get wrinkled easily, but it’s designed to be super comfortable and give off a laid-back vibe, as if it’s been worn and broken in over time.

The Flex-Knit fabric is breathable and moisture-wicking, so you stay cool and the garment doesn’t become damp or develop unpleasant odors from sweat. Another feature to point out is its four-way stretch, which means the jacket moves with you and offers a great range of motion.
Our fashion editors have managed to mix and match their favorite tops with this jacket. From a basic tee to an oxford shirt, it looks great with just about anything in your wardrobe—a true testament to its versatility. Plus, the material is ultra-light, making it a comfortable pick to throw on.

Eddie Bauer’s travel blazer is practically indestructible. The fabric is hardcore and can take a beating, thanks to the reinforced seams and durable water-repellent finish. The latter especially makes sure you’re covered if you spill a drink or get caught in a downpour. And when you’re commuting, you can secure your passport or phone inside zippered compartments.
During our testing, we found that the two-way stretch made a journey breeze, giving us the freedom to move through busy airports and crowded streets. Plus, the universal fit hits the sweet spot, so it’s comfortable for all body types without being too tight or too loose.

For those jam-packed trips that require you to jump around from meetings to dinners and so forth, you need a travel blazer that performs like a true pro. Enter Brooks Brothers’ version, which can handle all the hustle and still look sharp without missing a beat. The cotton-polyester blend dries quickly, resists odor, and helps prevent gnarly sunburns while you’re spending time outdoors. With breathable vents in the shoulder areas, we found that it keeps you feeling fresh and breezy, no matter how hectic your day gets.
Although this blazer has a rather dressier vibe, it’s perfect for airport lounges or networking events. You can pair it with a basic tee or dress shirt for a laid-back fit as you’re navigating to your next destination. It’s on the higher end of the price spectrum, but our editors believe its quality craftsmanship and design make it a worthy investment, so you’ll have it for years to come. Speaking of which, this tried and true navy number has a rounded shape with convenient storage including a zippered pocket for your credit cards and keys.

Cons
- Not ideal if you want something more structured
In an effort to max out comfort, Faherty offers a travel blazer made out of a stretch jersey knit fabric. It has a soft hand feel, tailored fit, and wears like your coziest cardigan. The front pockets are deep enough to carry your earbuds or wallet, so either won’t fall out as you’re maneuvering through the airport. Whether you’re packing it all in a backpack or suitcase, it’s a breeze to toss in and hit the road. Plus, we found no signs of wrinkles after unloading our clothes in the hotel.
Unlike stiff travel blazers that we’ve tested, this one bends and moves with you, so it doesn’t feel like you’re stuck in a straightjacket. The slimmer cut is perfect for guys who have an athletic or lean build, as it accentuates a trim silhouette and creates a sharp appearance. It’s a perfect match with a pair of summer pants, but looks just as cool with jeans and a tee.

Whether you’re catching a flight for work or commuting to the office, Buck Mason has a trusty travel blazer for daily use. It’s designed to be easy to carry and pack, so it’s perfect for the frequent flier and subway rider. Unlike other options we’ve given a test run, this one doesn’t have open back vents for extra airflow. Though, the beauty of parachute poplin material is that it’s super lightweight and breathable, making it comfortable to wear all day. In addition, we found the fabric is tough enough to hold up well with regular washes. Our fashion editors suggest pairing it with a tucked-in shirt and trousers for a chill ensemble.

Other Travel Blazers We Love
Pros
- Super breathable linen fabric
- Can handle warmer temps
- Works for most body types
- Has matching pants to complete a full suit look
Cons
- Wrinkles easily, but doesn’t cramp your style
Octobre Editions’ tailored blazer features vertical stripes that elongates the body for a flattering fit, and makes you look. taller and slimmer. The linen fabric is light and breezy, so you won’t feel stuffy in warmer climates—whether you’re sipping cocktails at a rooftop bar or attending a summer wedding under the July sun. I’ve worn the blazer with chinos and dark jeans to mix things up, but still keep it polished. The matching pants, however, are perfect for guys who want to go for the full suit look without feeling too formal.
During our packing test, our editors noticed that the linen wrinkles more than a structured blazer. But here’s the thing: those natural wrinkles of the fabric’s unique texture enhance its relaxed, lived-in vibe opposed to making you look sloppy. Plus, the slim silhouette flatters most body types, balancing out proportions and giving you a sharp, yet casual feel.
Pros
- Light and breezy
- Wrinkle-resistant
- Comes in three fits: slim, ahtletic, and standard
Seeksucker is best for beating the heat while also giving you that crisp, put-together look. Take Bonobos’ Jetsetter blazer produced from premium Italian fabric, which has a puckered texture that lifts material off the skin, creating natural airflow even in the hottest, most humid conditions. Our Deputy Editor, Christian Gollayan, wore it in scorching temps for dressy events, but didn’t break a sweat. He also found the fabric to be wrinkle-resistant—perfect for tossing in a carry-on and still looking fresh when you land.
In true Bonobos fashion, this blazer comes in three fits—slim, athletic, and standard—so every guy can find his perfect match. Unlike stiff, restrictive blazers that make you feel like you’re trapped in a straightjacket, this one flexes with you, whether you’re reaching for your luggage in the overhead bin or hailing a cab. And it’s far more relaxed than a traditional sport coat. In terms of styling, it’s super versatile: you can wear it with a dress shirt and chinos for a garden party or a casual t-shirt and jeans for a laid-back look on your next trip.

How Do You Wear a Travel Blazer?
Think of your travel blazer more like a lightweight jacket. Any blazer in a dark, neutral color or simple pattern can go on top of pretty much any outfit. Whether you wear a button down shirt or a hoodie, throwing a blazer over it instantly levels up your look. Alas, we tend to not use the pockets of suits or formal blazers very often, but you should utilize all the pocket space of travel blazers.
