Flexible or Breathable Suit Jacket for Musicians
I often need to wear a black suit of some sort while I perform as a vocalist or drummer. I'd love to have a jacket that looks "good enough" from stage that is both comfortable/flexible to move around in and breathable to help with the heat of stage lighting.
Sweating a ton and performing and moving around in a suit jacket means this thing is going to get beat up - I can't afford to dry clean regularly. Just looking for something that'll look solid, try and keep me cool, but not blow the bank. This would be used for nothing else. Thinking function over fashion.
Budget: <$100 (up to $200 if truly worth it for the long haul)
Location: United Stated (NorthEast)
No time crunch.

could you try to find something linen secondhand online if you know your measurements
@iral do you have any input on this?
Thanks for the ping
Uh
I wear a uniqlo suit thats quite summery
But i dont sweat that much tbh
Even when performing
I do rate the cheap uniqlo suit tho for gigs and whatnot, it stays fresh for a while
If Muji still do their linen suits the jacket / blazer from there might be a good option, for a relaxed fit and breathable fabric
Might only be seasonal on their store but worth checking ebay if you're confident in sizing & measurements
I envy you so much
