When\u00a0you’ve\u00a0traveled close to a million air miles, you learnthat one thing you can\u2019t live without is a good men\u2019s blazer. \u00a0Whether for an important meeting or finedining, a blazer that travels well is pure gold.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I finally found it!<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

\n<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A few months ago I discovered the UltimateTravel Blazer<\/a> <\/strong>from Magellan\u2019s<\/a>. Forwell under $200, this is the most forgiving coat I\u2019ve ever worn. Folded in asuitcase for three days, it unpacks and wrinkles fall out almost immediately.On a 12 hour flight back from Taiwan, I sat in it for the first couple hoursand then used it as a blanket for the last four hours. No wrinkles<\/strong>! <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
If its wrinklelessness wasn\u2019t good enough already,they pack it with extra features. In addition to the typical exterior pockets,this comes with four generous-sized, zippered, internal pockets. They areperfect to hold airline tickets, cellphone, compact camera, mp3 player with earbuds,and even a seven-inch Android tablet. Keep that in mind next time you\u2019re stuckin your seat waiting for the \u201cfasten seatbelts\u201d light to go out. With thiscoat, you\u2019ve got everything you need for hours of enjoyment on<\/span><\/strong> the plane and terrificstylish looks while you\u2019re off<\/span><\/strong>the plane.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Magellan\u2019s offers the Ultimate Travel Blazer in twocolors: black and tan. Here\u2019s how they describe it:<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The soft, wrinkle-resistant,\u00a0<\/span>microfiber<\/span><\/a><\/em>\u00a0<\/span><\/em>thin walecorduroy is perfect year round, and dresses up or down with ease. Mesh halflining is breathable, and a touch of\u00a0<\/span>spandex<\/span><\/a><\/em>\u00a0<\/span><\/em>ensuresease of movement. Classic tailoring details include a two-button front, shapedshoulders, chest pocket, flapped hip pockets, and back vent. And inside thereare four zippered security pockets. Made of 85% polyester\/13% nylon\/2%\u00a0<\/span>spandex<\/span><\/a><\/em>.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
And slacks too<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
As a perfect complement to the coat, I also pickedup a pair of their FlatFront Denim Pants<\/a><\/strong>. Available in denim and dark denim, these are somecomfortable, smart-looking slacks. With just a hint of Lycra in the fabric anda hidden, stretch waistband, these slacks just fit great, day after day. I gotthe darker denim ones, and they don\u2019t show dirt the way my khaki pants do. Evenon two-week trips to Zimbabwe and Chile, they still held their shape and lookedsharp. They even include a fifth hidden security pocket.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
If you are looking to perk up your wardrobe for 2012,you need to seriously give these a look, or pass this article on to the SantaClaus in your life. While you are at Magellan\u2019swebsite<\/a>, you\u2019re liable to find a slew of products you never saw before.Happy shopping.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
