Gap belted knit blazer

elpgal

If anyone has seen this, can you tell me about the material? Since it is 100% cotton, I am worried it may be a very floppy knit.

Sorry haven't seen it but it is darling and looks oh so comfy. Good luck in finding the answer.

elpgal, my experience with GAP's 100% cotton stuff is bad. I vote pass. Pure cotton is not good for garment like this which needs to keep its form, some man-made material in the mix is necessary.

If you're after nice casual blazer, H&M is a good place.

I'm not sure about this particular one- online it looks sort of like a soft sweater-knit.

But in general I'm a big believer in knit jackets; they're a nice compromise- some structure but comfy like a sweater.

I got a great ponte blazer from Gap recently, but this could go either way and until I see reviews or the item in person I'd hesitate to purchase. It does look like it would be floppy.

Thank you all for the push to wait it out; I will hold out for something in a better fabrication.
