Blazers

[Bushmaster]

Navy blue, double-breasted, brass buttons.

Does anyone wear them anymore?

Or is it just me?

Only if working on a ship I would've thought

Yes. The official drinking blazer. Doesn't get as much use as in days past.

[Bushmaster]

Rather.

In the 80s

Are you a daytime disk jockey on Radio Norwich?

[Cheeky Jim]

I have a modern blazer,

Blue, single breasted in very tight fabric, plain black buttons..

[Bushmaster]

In the 80's I had a cravat too! MAybe should have been a 'shameful confessions' thread. And a flat cap.

Ad, I'd prefer it if you'd get permission before posting pics of me on a public forum.

Thought I'd get in first before some other canut did

[Saddle bum]

Oh yes. Blue blazer, duck strides*, brown slip-ons - the quintessential casual drinking gear. Regimental or service tie worn of course.

• Chinos will just about do.

I remember my one and only Blazer.

Had been in the Army about 6 weeks to be told by the RSM that we all needed to buy a Blazer for Church services.

Moral of the story= You do NOT wear one thru choice.
