Nautica Boys' Brass Button Blazer Jacket

I LOVE this jacket!! This review is after a year of use, hope it helps you decide! :)We have matched this with the Nautica Big Boys Oxford dress shirt in blue with a pair of Levi's jeans, and with Sketchers grey leather boots, (English) riding boots, and Oxford dark brown leather shoes.I'm sure you can probably tell our youngest has had many occasions to wear the jacket. We have had the item for a year actually, and have had it dry cleaned a number of times at this point. All the buttons are still tight (believe me our 8 year old has not been gentle with it either), no loose strings, and actually no signs of wear, and tear at all. The jacket is worth the money, and looks great!Halfway through the year - having survived the holiday season both at school for the holiday celebrations, and assembly's, and with us at family, and friends get together 's /celebrations - he won Best Dressed at his schools Valentine pageant! (He wore the knee high English riding boots on that occasion)Unfortunately he is the youngest out of all our sons, so I will be passing it on to a friend I really like (I mean it IS an awesome jacket!), BUT will be buying another when he outgrows this one! It's just that nice!I do recommend spending the money on this jacket, and I do Hate to waste $ , or overspend on items I can get for the same quality at a lower price, I also hate having to scramble to find a dress jacket at last minute because one of our sons either forgot to tell us they have a "school thing", or because they have ruined another one. So I try to get each one of them a nice dress jacket that will not only fit them for the year, but will also survive being cleaned, worn, thrown about, and possibly last a second, or third boy all while looking brand new! This jacket fits the bill, and is the same quality material, and feel of many of my husbands suits.This jacket is very, very, very nice, and deserves a 6th star for not being a $100 jacket!

This blazer is well worth the price. It is a good quality and looks nice. It also arrived by the date promised. The only negative was some slight wrinkling.I ordered this blazer for my son, who is at that stage where his shoulder width hasn't caught up with his arm length. We had shopped at local stores, but were unable to find the color we wanted in the right size. I was hesitant to purchase online, but wanted something fast and didn't want to travel to a nearby town to shop. I was pleasantly surprised to find this product looks better than the picture indicates and fits well. I'm a satisfied customer.

I've bought this three times for my son, he keeps growing out of them, as kids do, but it's a good jacket so I just buy it again bigger.

This is a really nice blazer for the price! I read several reviews here and I agree - it runs small but otherwise is an excellent buy if you need to shop online for dressy boys' clothes. I ordered a size 10 for my son who wears an 8 in most clothes. His pants and dress shirt are an 8 but the size 10 blazer just fit. It is well made and looks terrific on. Very happy with this purchase, but again, glad I sized up.

Very nice for the price.Size 20 fit on a 5'7" teen boy with a lanky runners' build, but was a wee bit wide in the middle and hung down a bit longer than ideal, but overall was fine.Still growing, so will last awhile.I agree with previous reviews, this is a dark navy, the kind you hold up to the window to tell if it's black or navy.Overall happy with something that wasn't tried on before buying.Quality looking details.

A handsome jacket for the price. The fabric is not as high quality as I had hoped, small bits cling to it. My boy is the average boy, slings his jacket onto the bed when coming home from church and doesn't hang it up immediately. In that regard, it holds up without looking slept in. Still, the little bits are indicative of less quality fabric. His Ralph Lauren Polo was better made.

This looks very nice, fits well, and has nice gold buttons that look sharp. My only quibble is that I had been hoping the fabric might be a little heavier, but it's really quite nice anyway, as a midweight jacket.

This is a beautiful jacket! Looks expensive and the gabardine fabric is soft-not rough like some children's dress clothes. The navy is a dark rich color, the buttons are nice, and the jacket lays well. The jacket is fully lined with a nice inside pocket. My son is an 8-10 and he's 8 years old and 4'6" and I bought him a size 10. It fits nicely over a starched polo button down and tie.Sleeves hit between the wrist and thumb pad.
