Suede blazer for spring

10 replies

So I am after a suede blazer for spring, ideally chocolate brown or maybe a lighter shade. Looking at this Barney's Original's one: https://barneysoriginals.com/product/womens-buffalo-suede-coat?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA2cu9BhBhEiwAft6IxFNK7FqWJJ4UBBfMaBWvxu2YR06JGNZ35QnhZfAKyVyLnB7WVNJCPhoCHlMQAvD_BwE#reviews

Looks exactly like the style I am after, but I don't know anything about the brand. Zara has some interesting options in a similar price range, but again I am not sure what the quality is like. Considered second-hand, but vintage suede is usually a bit grubby... What would you recommend wise Mumsnetters?

Why are you doing this to me?!

I’d go for the Sézane Will in camel suede over that one, I think the colour is nicer and easier to wear.

I love it, but it's a completely different price point

The Sézane one is so lovely! There’s something a bit off with the Barney’s one - colour/shape don’t look right.

Stop making me look at nice things which I didn't know I needed in my life. Luckily my size seems to out of stock for most of the lovely leather jackets. I do really like the suede blazer but not practical for my life of walking to work in the rain .

And now my ad feeds are full of various leather jackets 😆

That Barney's jacket is almost identical to one I got from M&S over 20 years ago, it comes up on eBay now and then . I shall have to dig it out again.

I love it.. except for one thing.. l don't like sewn on pockets on the outside..

The pockets on that Sezane jacket are awful and it looks too lightweight to be anything other than a summer jacket.
