Finding a reliable cold weather blazer can be a fickle task. You always have to consider how the jacket will handle bone-chilling wind and impromptu rain. Sure you can toss on an overcoat, but that’s probably too stuffy for the temps at hand. That’s where Flint and Tinder’s Boiled Wool Chore Blazer comes in—it’s a casual piece meant to keep you lean, mean, and clean. Like the name suggests, the wool on this jacket is literally boiled to tighten it up and make it uniform and flat. In return, the fabric gains better resistance to wind and water—the wool gets so thin and tight that moisture will actually bead up instead of absorbing into the coat. Combine the fact this wool blazer comes in an unstructured, tailored fit cut, and you’ve got a casual jacket you can turn to for many outfits all season long.
