The verdict

A pattern-forward casual blazer at the same price as solid cotton versions—the herringbone adds visual interest without raising cost.

Fit

Mk. I games blazers are the foundation cut of Drake's casual line. Herringbone pattern is forgiving of wrinkles and minor wear. Standard UK tailoring.

Quality

Herringbone twill is slightly more sophisticated than plain twill and offers marginally better wrinkle resistance. Construction is Drake's mid-tier standard.

Price check

GBP 795 is fair for herringbone patterning and Drake's reputation. No premium over plain cotton, which makes this good value if you prefer pattern.

Best for

Pattern lovers who want texture and visual depth without paying extra, on a budget-conscious Drake's selection.

Care

Dry-clean or hand-wash; pattern helps hide wrinkles but does not eliminate pressing needs.

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.
