Have you ever owned, own or aspire to own one ? [Apart from the school variety of course]

It was my 'uniform' for about 25 years.
Kept one when I retired and I think I have only worn it once in 20 years.
Somehow I just can't bring myself to throw it out. :(
 
It depends on the circumstances. I can’t imagine a blazer being part of Sergio’s wardrobe, but I bet he likes that green one.
 
There like braces imo, people who like to wear them think their important.

I’ve got a Crombie from the 70’s that I won’t throw away.
 
I'm just in the process of clearing out my wardrobe and have just put my blazer in the charity shop bag!
 
Not worn one since captain’s final fling 11 years ago. Thing it went in the bin the year after. Not in any great hurry to get another one.
 
Own a few non golf style blazer, get the more casual blazers that you can wear with jeans rather a suit style blazer. Jersey style blazers are really popular now, can be as smart as you want with them.
 
When I went on me last cruise I saw a couple of guys in Tuxedos in blue with a paisley print on them. I thought yes the Tash could do that justice, like a modern day Bond, Tash Bond. Anyway I saw two in TK Maxx. They just oozed sex. Anyway one was a 48" and one a 40". I am a rock solid 44". I was gutted, anyway I got home had a look on there site and they have them down as Blazers and not Tuxedos. The hunt for the elusive Tuxedo/Blazer is still on.
 
I've got one.....think they can look really smart without necessarily being stuffy and can lend themselves to a semi casual/smart look in a way that a normal suit jacket just cannot.

Mine works equally well with a casual open necked flowery (or other design) print shirt as it doers with a more formal shirt and tie affair.

Yes I am of a certain age.
 
Used to have one but was sick down it after a golf away day afternoon round was rained off, 6 hours in the bar and I was toast. So was the blazer .
Also lost my clubs on the way home that day, but thankfully someone saw me stoating home and handed my clubs into the pub I'd left them lying outside.
