What owners report about Ministry of Supply jackets & outerwear
Coverage of this jacket range centers on the brand's stretch-knit blazers, which reviewers report are unusually comfortable — soft, unlined, and stretchy enough to move in — while still passing in an office. Long-term testers report machine washing and drying them with no durability problems. The recurring criticisms are about looks rather than build: the technical fabric and patch pockets read casual and a bit synthetic next to traditional tailoring, one reviewer found the blazer prone to gathering lint and hair, and wrinkle resistance in the jacket is weaker than the marketing implies.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently rate the blazers as the most comfortable they have worn, and machine-wash care with no reported durability issues holds up in long-term testing.
- Watch out for
- Owners note the fabric looks technical rather than formal, attracts lint and hair, and jacket wrinkles do not fall out as easily as claimed.
- Sizing
- Reviewers say the blazer fits well out of the box but is offered in a single fit, with extra sleeve fabric included so a tailor can lengthen the sleeves.
