This belongs in the same bin as the T-shirt printed to look like a collar and tie. If you own one, I’m sorry. just throw it out and wear a cardigan.

well now I have seen just about every thing in men’s clothes, but calling a sweater a ‘blazer” is going a little to far. there are “cardigans and pull overs” sweaters. That’s like saying a “tiger” is a lion”. One may look like the other because it has 4 feet, a head and a tail, but totally different animal it’s the same with “sweater blazer” not the same, either it’s a sweater or it’s a blazer.

Never heard of a sweater blazer. Sounded like someone who wears a Members Only jacket would buy.

I checked Loro Pina website, and they have one for $2,350. but it’s silk and linen!

Designers are getting crazy with new concepts that will just be a fade for confused shoppers to buy and laughed at by the rest.

Never heard of them up until now, but now I am intrigued if it could be a nice addition just for house wear, if I ever find one, I might consider getting one.

I own two knitted blazers, one from John Henric in dark navy and one from Pini Parma in camel. I consider them lounge wear—like, I suppose, a smoking jacket, except that they are good for keeping one warm. A knitted blazer (I have not previously encountered the term “sweater blazer”), as far as I can see, is just a cardigan sweater whose style is elevated in formality (relative to other cardigans, that is) by the incorporation of some of the structural features of a sport coat, such as lapels. I could wear a shawl-collar cardigan for the same purpose, but I have yet to see a shawl-collar cardigan whose style appeals to me. I almost never wear either of my knitted blazers outside of the house, since one cannot wear a sport coat over them, while they themselves do not look right as an outer garment.

By the way, in the video, Kyle speaks of the materials of sweaters as “fabric” and speaks of the “cut” of such garments. I may be misinformed on this point, but I believe that neither term is appropriate: knitted material, as I understand, is not fabric, and a knitted garment is not cut.

Truly an abomination – ultimately a relative of jeggings.
