The verdict
Fit
Chore jacket cut—boxier than tailored wear, with dropped shoulders and relaxed sleeves. True to size; linen softens and moves more fluidly as it ages.
Quality
Striped linen at this price reflects quality dyeing and weave consistency. Drake's finishes are precise; expect clean edges and strong seams even in patterned fabric.
Is the price fair?
£595 is consistent with Drake's chore-jacket range; the stripe adds visual complexity but not material or labor cost, so this is brand-standard pricing.
Best for
Shoppers already appreciating Drake's chore jackets who want textural contrast and tonal pattern play.
Care
Linen stripes may show dye variation after washing; wash separately and line-dry to preserve indigo saturation.
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.
