What reviewers say

Questions and answers

Is the Thompson jacket true to size?

It runs close because of the slim fit. Most buyers take their usual suit size, but those with a broad chest or shoulders should consider sizing up and tailoring the waist.

Can I wear it as a separate blazer?

Yes. The solid worsted wool works with jeans, chinos or contrasting trousers, though it is designed to match the Thompson suit trousers.

Does it come with matching trousers?

No, this listing is the jacket only. J.Crew sells matching Thompson trousers separately if you want a full suit.

How should I care for worsted wool?

Dry clean it, and brush or air it between wears. Worsted wool resists wrinkles, so it needs less pressing than softer wool blends.

Is it warm enough for winter?

It is a year-round weight. It layers over a shirt and light sweater but is not a heavy winter jacket.

How does it compare with J.Crew's Ludlow jacket?

The Thompson is the slimmer, more tapered cut. The Ludlow is roomier through the chest and waist, so pick the Thompson for a sharper line and the Ludlow for a more forgiving fit.
