The verdict

Navy linen games blazer with double-breasted tailoring—a refined take on the casual blazer, stronger than cotton versions.

Fit

Double-breasted Mk. III cut is slightly more structured than basic games blazers. Linen drapes softly. Navy is conventional and forgiving. UK tailoring.

Quality

Linen upgrade from cotton shows Drake's stepped materials approach. Mk. III implies better finishing than earlier versions. Linen softens and improves with age.

Price check

GBP 895 is a clear step from GBP 795 cotton—linen and double-breasted justifies the increase.

Best for

The casual dresser wanting a warm-season blazer with more presence than cotton, from a known British maker.

Care

Dry-clean or hand-wash; linen creases are expected, but light pressing keeps a neat appearance.

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.
