Brown Mid-Wale Cotton Corduroy Tailored Jacket
The verdict
Fit
Mid-wale corduroy tailoring is close and structured; the napped texture hides minor wrinkles and adds visual interest.
Quality
Drake's corduroy sourcing and tailoring is meticulous; mid-wale is durable and improves with regular wear.
Price check
1,095 GBP is reasonable for a tailored mid-wale corduroy jacket from a heritage shipper; good value for a seasonless piece.
Best for
Someone building a cohesive warm-tone wardrobe who values texture and wants a blazer that works from autumn through spring.
Care
Brush gently with a soft brush to maintain the nap; dry clean to preserve colour depth and texture.

What owners report about Drake's jackets & outerwear
Owners and menswear reviewers treat Drake's jackets — the five-pocket chore jackets and Games blazers especially — as well-made, fabric-led pieces, and an editorial comparison of luxury chore coats found the label's range of cloths, sizes and availability consistently stronger than its peers, with fabric-specific details like snap cuffs on suede versions and rivet buttons on denim ones. The cut runs relaxed by design: forum owners describe Games blazers as slouchy and slightly oversized, with sleeves that frequently need shortening. Pricing draws pushback — commenters on a corduroy Games blazer review argued the fit would have to be perfect to justify the outlay on a casual jacket.
- Strengths
- Reviewers credit the line's breadth of fabrics and its relaxed casual-tailoring cut, executed with detailing matched to each cloth.
- Watch out for
- Owners report erratic sizing between styles, sleeves that run long, and prices that even fans say are hard to justify.
- Sizing
- Fit is intentionally relaxed and inconsistent across styles — one owner fit a 38 Games blazer but needed a 40 in the suede chore jacket — so check each style's own measurements before buying.
