You know us, we LOVE a good suit and a good sport coat. When they are done right, they are the best kind of garment, tailored perfectly, elevated, and stylish; the job is almost done for you. Whether you are looking for the best suit on the market or whether you need an excellent sport coat for the office, certain styles are classic. The navy and blue options are never going out of style; the tweed look is the perfect fall and winter variety. But The Normal Brand had a different idea this season, and it ended up being the best option of the fall, and people noticed. The Normal Brand Hawthorne Cord Blazer shakes up your tailored wardrobe in the best way possible.

Reinvent your tailored wardrobe

If you think back to 2021, a trend made a brief appearance and then slipped away quietly without much fanfare. Daniel Craig appeared in his final turn as James Bond in No Time to Die and rocked a three-piece corduroy suit in the opening salvo. While the look didn’t blow up how it should have, the image still sears four years later. The Normal Brand piggybacked on that idea and offered a double-breasted blazer option that elevates your tailored wardrobe with a casual look that makes you look as sleek as James Bond without the stylist. It is extra warm, making it perfect for winter. It was popular enough that it is going quickly, but if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one, it will be your go-to all winter long.

When you get ready for the summer months, your warm-weather wardrobe comes out of storage and takes center stage in your closet. While there are many garments for your summer wardrobe that are staples, such as shorts, tees, and sandals, there is one area that gets a little more complicated—event wear. The truth is, few people are excited to wear a suit when the weather gets warmer. Layered up under a jacket and tie is the last thing you want when attending an event in 90-100 degree heat. That's why you want to invest in a linen suit, something made from natural fibers, to allow yourself to enjoy the breeze. However needed a good linen suit is, a lot of guys can't drop typical suit money on one that can only be worn for a part of the year. That is where The Tie Bar comes in this season. The Tie Bar suits under $400 now come in linen, offering a comfortable, warm-weather alternative without the need to pay more.
