Senior Boys' Blazer

But not for our tall skinny boy , sadly had to return

Well worth spending a little extra for this blazer, my sons previous one lasted him 2 years after many washes etc.

I have recently bought this blazer to replace the one I bought in September for my son to start secondary school. I wash the blazer once a week on a 30 degree wash and drip dried, I didn't feel the material was easy to wash and unlike other blazers ive washed in the past the creases didn't drop out. Ive purchased the second one to give M & S another chance

This blazer is excellent quality, and has the same finish as a much more expensive one. It has several inside pockets and is fully lined and best of all when washed in the machine it comes up as good as new! (Machine washing does not diminish the collar or the quality of the jacket in any way) It is also easy to iron. All in all a very good purchase.

I am unfortunately very disappointed by this blazer. This is our second one since beginning of September. The first blazer had a couple of front pockets which became un stitched within a month of wear, we tried to get it replaced and no one at customer service would help. So I ordered another, and within a day, the buttons at the front became loose, one was lost, (by the way, there are no extra buttons on the garment) so leaving me to fix it urgently. Yes, of course, I can stitch a button, but I really am surprised at the quality of the blazer.

I realised my son was hulking out of his blazer and had to buy a school blazer out of season. I ordered this online using measurements I took at home. The item arrived in store for pick up as scheduled, the queue in store moved quickly and staff were lovely as ever. It fitted and is a good quality item, so thankfully no return needed. I particularly like the ink proof pockets and ability to lengthen the arms (although this isn't required so far). Decent price too.

Horrible stiff fabric. Creases badly, very bad to iron. I iron it with a tea towel over it as I know if I touch the iron with it it will go shiny. My son wore it for 4 weeks and all the lining came undone on one side at the bottom. The ink proof pocket doesn’t work as within the first week a pen leaked through and marked my sons shirt (also from M&S and also terrible quality) and it will not come out. The jacket doesn’t wash well. It stains very easily and sometimes takes 2-3 washes to get clean. When it’s dry it never really looks particularly clean. I won’t be getting one from M&S for next year.

Bought this for my son, and he loves it. Great quality, have no complaints

I needed something smart for a funeral and my 13 year old is a small man’s size. I didn’t want to spend a lot on a suit he’d never wear again so I bought this with matching trousers. It was perfect. My son looked so smart for the fraction of the price of a suit. Good old Markies came to the rescue.

I purchased this blazer as my son had outgrown his first one (age 11) which was bought just prior to when he started high school in September 2016. The blazer's very good quality, looks incredibly smart on - two vents at the back add that extra finish. Good depth of colour, my son's school uniform is a black blazer and trousers, jumpers etc with a white shirt. Once the school badge is sown on it really finishes it off. The original, and first, blazer has lasted for two years which is very good in my opinion. It's a little short in the sleeves and moreso in the body, and has lost some of its 'waff' due to washing and wear. I launder my son's blazer every half term/term, and when required otherwise - DS quite often comes home covered in mud etc... The buttons have needed to be replaced as DS has arrived home having lost both on separate occasions - which wasn't a problem. Given that it's worn for 190 days a year, 7 hours a day, I can't complain. I would recommend the blazer, it's a thoroughly good buy and excellent value for money. Well done M & S.
