Your Definition

A blazer is a type of jacket, worn as smart casual dress. The term blazer [occasionally] is synonymous with boating jacket and sports jacket, two different garments. A blazer resembles a suit coat cut more casually — sometimes with flap-less patch pockets and metal buttons. A blazer's cloth is usually durable (14oz.), because it is an outdoor sports jacket. Stylistically, blazers often are uniform garments, i.e. airline, school, and [yachting], and rowing clubs.

The term blazer identifies two distinct jackets; the first, original blazer, was a single-breasted boat club jacket, worn for rowing, of brightly-coloured, often striped cloth, with contrasting piping; essentially an early sports jacket. The second blazer is a fitted, classically-cut, double-breasted navy [blue jacket], originally called reefer jacket, now an occasional usage. As men discontinued wearing [the original] boat-club blazer, the term then applied solely to the double-breasted naval version dressed with metal buttons; the military originals were black.
