A custom blazer jacket made to your measurements is the most versatile piece in a man's wardrobe, and every one of ours is cut from premium European mill fabrics and built to your exact fit. At Germain Tailors, each custom men's blazer is made to order in our Shanghai atelier using a soft tailoring construction that moves with the body, holds its shape without padding, and improves with wear. Place your order online, and your blazer ships in approximately four weeks.
Choose Your Fabric, Own Your Look
The fabric defines how a blazer performs across seasons and occasions. For spring and summer, linen is the natural choice: breathable, textured, and effortlessly relaxed. Irish linen from Baird McNutt carries a particular character, a slight slub and weight that improves with each wear. For year-round versatility, a wool-and-linen blend from Abraham Moon strikes the right balance between structure and softness. Cotton hopsack from Reda or a twill cotton by Brisbane Moss offers a smart-casual option that travels well and resists creasing.
In cooler months, reach for a flannel. Vitale Barberis Canonico (VBC), one of the oldest wool mills in Biella, Italy, supplies some of the finest flannel available, rich in weight and with a surface that brushes beautifully. For those who want something with more open weave and exceptional breathability year-round, Hardy Minnis Fresco is the benchmark: a tightly twisted worsted that resists heat, holds a clean line, and is among the most durable jacket fabrics in existence. At the top of the range, Loro Piana Super 130's merino delivers an unmatched softness and drape for dressier occasions.

How to Choose Chinos That Work with Your Custom Blazer
The blazer-and-chinos combination is the backbone of smart casual dressing, and the pairing works best when the two pieces are chosen to complement rather than compete.
For a navy or dark blazer, mid-tan or stone chinos create a clear contrast that reads as intentional rather than accidental. A grey or charcoal blazer sits equally well with olive, tobacco, or off-white. Avoid matching chino and blazer tones too closely: similar shades without being identical can look like a failed suit.
Fit matters as much as color. Slim or tailored-cut chinos balance the structure of a custom blazer jacket without adding bulk. A fuller leg works with softer, unstructured constructions but requires a cleaner shirt and shoes to hold the look together.
Fabric-wise, a cotton or cotton-linen chino in warm months keeps the outfit breathable. In cooler weather, a flannel or brushed cotton pair of trousers echoes the weight of a wool or flannel blazer and gives the whole outfit a considered, seasonal coherence.
If you want trousers cut with the same precision as your blazer, our made-to-order suits include the option to order coordinating trousers separately.

Why Buy Your Custom Blazer from Germain Tailors
Every custom blazer jacket we make is cut from fabric sourced directly from Europe's most respected mills: Loro Piana, Vitale Barberis Canonico, Hardy Minnis, Reda, Abraham Moon, Baird McNutt, and Brisbane Moss, among them. These are the same mills that supply Savile Row and the finest tailors in Milan and Paris. The difference is that at Germain Tailors, their clothes are accessible at a price point that reflects honest value rather than a luxury brand premium.
Our construction philosophy is soft tailoring. No heavy interfacing, no rigid chest canvas, no padded shoulders that fight your posture. Each made-to-measure blazer is built around a half-canvas front that molds gently to the chest over time, creating a fit that feels better the longer you wear it. The result is a jacket with movement, drape, and a natural silhouette that structured tailoring rarely achieves.
Every order is cut to your measurements. Submit them online or, if you are based in or visiting Shanghai, book an in-person made-to-measure appointment at our atelier. Either way, your custom men's blazer is cut specifically for your body, not graded down from a standard block. Production and shipping take approximately four weeks, and we ship globally.
FAQ
What is the difference between made-to-order and bespoke?
Made-to-order means your garment is cut from a set design to your exact measurements. Bespoke involves a unique pattern drafted from scratch with multiple in-person fittings. Our process is made to order: full measurement customization, no in-person requirement, shipped globally.
How do I take my measurements for a custom blazer?
We provide a full measurement guide on our jacket fits page. You will need chest, waist, hips, shoulder width, sleeve length, and jacket length. If you have an existing jacket that fits well, you can send those measurements instead.
How long does production and delivery take?
Your custom men's blazer is produced and shipped in approximately four weeks from order confirmation.
What is soft tailoring construction?
Soft tailoring means the jacket is built without heavy fusing or rigid padding. A half-canvas front sits between the outer fabric and lining, giving shape without stiffness. The result is a jacket that drapes naturally and molds to the body over time.
Can I wear a custom blazer jacket as part of a suit?
Our blazers and sport coats are cut as separates. If you want a matched two-piece, browse our made-to-order suits where jacket and trousers are cut from the same cloth.
Do you offer returns or alterations?
Please visit our Delivery & Returns page for full details on our policy for made-to-order garments.
