I'm in LOVE with this blazer and ordering another ASAP. I used to think I wasn't a "blazer person," but this blazer has proved me wrong - I just never had the right blazer. Thank you to Ana and the Xena team for identifying a problem, and solving it with function and fashion. You get it, you get us! :)

I love this blazer. I have a lot of blazers because I participate in audits often (pre-COVID) but this is definitely going to be my favourite and absolute go to for audit days and any day I want to look professional and feel comfortable. The pockets (first off it has pockets!) are better than expected. They are large and roomy but do not add bulk to the jacket. I love the jewelry catch; I am not allowed to wear jewelry in the plant, and I often find that I have forgotten to take off my wedding rings when I'm out of the floor, so it's nice to be able to securely put them away instead of having to go back to my office to put them away because none of my clothes have pocket. The material is really nice, it is not stiff, but it's also not like a sweat pant material, so I'm happy Xena found a great middle ground fabric wise and I hope it keeps up. I am 5'2" 110lbs 34" bust and ordered a small- the blazer goes just past my bum and hits at a very flattering length for me. Thank you so much! I can't wait to see what else you all come up with next!

I am in LOVE with this blazer. I have always disliked traditional blazers as they are stiff, not easy to work in, and zero pockets! This blazer is the complete opposite!! It moves with you, it stretches and most importantly it has ALL the pockets you will need for your phone/PPE..you name it there is a pocket for it! This is a MUST in any women’s closet!

I LOVE this blazer! The material is stretchy and comfortable, plus the amount of pockets is incredible! This is great for dressing up an outfit for spontaneous events or just wearing to look great. I love how versatile it is.

★★★★★Gaylord Industires (ITW Company)
Great Blazer, would like the arms slightly longer but I have pretty long arms compared to most women. Would like to see a lighter fabric for summer months.

★★★★★Education Leadership in Kodiak, Alaska
I love this blazer - the pockets are perfect - the length is perfect. This blazer adds a splash of style and upgrade to most any outfit. I really appreciate how it moves and stretches with my moves!

★★★★★Automotive Manufacturing
I can’t say enough about The Everywhere Blazer - I love it so much I bought a second one as a promotion gift for one of my friends! It’s lighter than the rest of my blazers, which is wonderful when you’re on your feet all day, particularly at a foundry. Plus the sleeves stay pushed up, but the fabric stays crisp looking. I love that there’s a place to safely secure my wedding ring plus enough room for work cell, personal cell and notebook. Makes me feel properly equipped but still stylish. Need to buy it in black next... Thank you, Xena!

★★★★★Oshkosh Defense LLC
The Everywhere Blazer is exactly that. It has already far exceeded my expectations. It feels like my softest hoodie but maintains shape and has a weight that looks professional. Worth every penny. I look damn good and feel like I am wearing pajamas.

★★★★★The Boeing Company
I love my new Everywhere blazer! It is super comfortable, moves well and looks sharp after long hours of work and travel. I have never had such and assortment of usable pockets. It's about time us gals have some fine work wear. Xena helps us look good while taking charge!

★★★★★Manufacturing
I have had this blazer for over a month. It has quickly become my favorite blazer and worn at least once a week. The blazer is heavy so although it is stretchy, it holds its shape well. I love the assortment of pockets! The cut fits well and falls a few inches below my hips (5' 4"). I love that I can push the sleeves up and they will stay put, but then when pulled back down have zero wrinkles and look just as crisp. I can't wait to get back to traveling - this blazer is definitely going with me. I won't be so worried about having to iron my coat at the hotel or showing up with a wrinkled jacket after flying. Although I haven't traveled with it yet, I did stuff it into my bag after work one night and forgot about it for two days. Pulled it out and it was ready to go.

★★★★★Structural Engineering
I have been looking everywhere for the perfect blazer. This blazer is it! It is professional and practical all at the same time. The pockets, first, it has them. They are large and I can fit all the tools I need when I go to inspections. Also, I'm 5'-9" and have a very long torso, and this blazer is the first blazer that is long enough. I'm in love and I recommend this blazer to any woman who wants a professional blazer with functional pockets. This blazer was so well thought out and I have no complaints. I purchased the blue blazer, but I'm saving to purchase the black blazer. It they come out with other colors, I would purchase other colors too.

★★★★★Food Processing

★★★★★General Contractor
Finding clothes that are comfortable, durable, and fashionable as a woman in the construction world is impossible, but Xenia did it for me. This blazer has enough stretch that I could swing a hammer, durability for all day out in the field, and comfort for those long days when I don’t get home until late.

★★★★★Massage/Bodyworker
I love the flexibility of the velvety texture of material the jacket is made from and functionality of the pockets. Comfortable to wear while working or on the go.

Great Blazer ! I am working or maybe I should say running in the airport environnement from check-in counter to aircraft holds and it's a perfect blazer to mix handling work and good looking. Why not creating the perfect matching pants to wear with?

★★★★★Controls Designer
When I received my Everywhere Blazer from Xena Workwear I could tell it was quality fabric when I took it out of the package. Then I tried it on and it felt amazing! I love the functionality of the entire blazer and the slight give of the fabric makes it very easy to move in. You can tell there was a lot of thought put into every aspect of this design. I cannot wait to see what else Xena Workwear comes out with!

★★★★★Jordan Foster Construction
As a busy Executive for a large Texas construction company, feeling confident and empowered is critical to my success. I recently purchased the Xena Everywhere Blazer and it exceeds all of my expectations. The material is soft and comfortable without being too casual. The larger pockets and the details are creative and useful for any woman working in the office and the field. The quality is impeccable. I know my blazer will be my go to outfit for years to come. Thank you for listening to women and making a difference in STEM and Construction. Be Safe, Be you, Be BadAss!

★★★★★EK Machine in Fall River, WI
I love my new blazer so much! It's so comfy and versatile. I can dress up a t-shirt and jeans. It looks great over a dress. Perfect for going from the shop floor for a root cause analysis discussion to the conference room for a customer audit. I've already bragged it up to several of my colleagues. It's the highest quality piece of clothing I own and it will be a regular in my rotation both at work and play!

★★★★★Wood. PM Industrial IE/CM
The blazer is fantastic! All the right pockets in all the right places! I didn't need to lug around a bulky briefcase or search for my ID badge. I was worried about the size but the Xena team guided me in the right direction! Perfect fit! 5'-1" , 125lbs, size M.

★★★★★House of Cards Nashville
Restaurant manager here! I didn't think it was going to be flawless but it really, really is. Lightweight, machine washable, stretchy, taylored, polished, flattering and has REAL POCKETS. I dont have to keep things in my bra while I run my butt off all night. They're pricey but I need 5. I'm truly stunned by how much this blazer over-delivered. Blew my expectations out of the water.

★★★★★Construction
love the comfortable feel of the blazer.

★★★★★Robinson- Metal Fabrication
I love my blazer! So soft, comfortable and professional looking! But still casual enough to wear on the manufacturing floor with a pair of jeans!
-
★★★★★Community outreach and higher education
I love this blazer! Helping load materials to send out like food boxes and supplies is still as easy as wearing a regular shirt and I have extra deep pockets for my notepads for when I need to jot something down. It’s an incredible blazer as well for meetings too! This is literally my favorite one!

★★★★★Clinical Laboratory Administrator
I truly love the fit and feel.

★★★★★Anna T.
I flippin' love this blazer! It looks so good, and the fabric is very comfortable. And the pockets! All the pockets! The company was also very helpful! I ordered a small, but it was too big and I returned the blazer and they immediately sent me the correct size. It was incredibly easy.

★★★★★Defense Industry
This blazer is fantastic no matter what you are doing. It's stretchy but doesn't stretch out. It holds up day after day without wrinkling or losing its shape, and it never seems to get dirty. The pockets are an actual useful size instead of decorations, and I never realized that I needed a zippered pocket until I got this one. The badge loop is the add-on that I didn't realize I needed. It's a good quality, great value piece for any work wardrobe.

★★★★★Steel Manufacturing

★★★★★Medical laboratory science
This blazer is so awesome, I had to purchase an extra one. The abundance of pockets is amazing. The clip of jewelry/keys is very convenient. It is a happy medium temperature wise. It's soft and stylish!

★★★★★Nuclear power
As a manager, this jacket allows me to look professional and keep warm in the office. I love the thick structured material that still allows you to roll up your sleeves. The pockets are the best thing. Never have I had such a versatile jacket allowing me to carry so much with me and not look bulky.

★★★★★Commercial Bulk Services

★★★★★Sea Salt
LOVE LOVE LOVE this jacket!! I have worn this flying, working in warehouses and in office. I have worn this out with friends. I've worn with jeans and dresses. Its harder for me not to wear when doing things. I recommend this for any lady looking for a stylish comfortable jacket. I can't wait to order the other colors.

★★★★★Manufacturing
I do love this blazer! Where do I start? The blazer came packaged well, all tags and cards included. QR code for details on material and care is included. I had my order within the week. I tried it on and the blazer hung well and was pleasantly heavy. I work in climate controlled areas which become quite chilly during the shift, this blazer was enough to keep me warm. The cut of the blazer is attractive and professional. Pockets are wide enough for gloves and cutting tools, outside pocket loop for my badge, inside clip for rings work as expected, inside pockets hold cell phone or pens and are roomy. The best feature is the material. It is resistant to lint and pet hair while retaining shape and staying wrinkle free. I push the sleeves up during work, when I pull them back down… No wrinkles!! Very classy! I am very happy with this blazer and have ordered a second one.

★★★☆☆Lixil Water Technologies Americas
There are so many things to love about this jacket and a lot that I wish I could change. I purchased a medium in black. I'm 5'7" 160lbs. I love the features; including, the pockets and light weight. But the sleeves are very short; even standing they come above my watch band. Also, it's really big around my bust, leaving lots of material folded under my armpit. Lastly, the material looks very cheap to me because of the shimmery effect of the stretch fabric. I'm keeping it because it's almost like an athletic style material that's actually quite comfy. It's not structured or form fitting and if that's ok with you, you'll love it.

★★★★★ConferenceDirect
This jacket is amazing!! I am telling other ConferenceDirect conference managers about it. When we are onsite managing a conference, we need jackets that have pockets without having to carry a purse around. This jacket is perfect and so comfortable. I was recently with Crissy Ingram, the Executive Director of NAWIC at a hotel and we were also telling our hotel contacts about how wonderful it is. This is a great jacket for anyone who wants to look professional in any industry who is working and needs a lot of cool options in their clothing with your wonderful pockets without having to worry about carrying a purse! Many jackets now don't have pockets, and this is huge. Yours is FABULOUS!!! I will definitely be purchasing other colors. Thanks Ana and the Xena Team!!

I loved the black blazer so much I ordered it in the blue after only wearing it once! It was that useful and stylish when out on the job sites. A place for all the PPE and enough give that it is super comfortable to move around in.

★★★★★Logistics/Warehousing
The Everywhere Utility Blazer was a great addition to my wardrobe. It’s travel ready and goes through metal detectors, breathable, and easy to wear with long sleeves or rolled up. I was initially worried about sleeve length, but it hit perfectly at the wrist where a blazer should. The multiple pockets were awesome (because real pockets!!) and the integrated badge loop was super handy.

★★★★★Construction/Architecture
Comfortable, easily washable, fits well, has POCKTS! What's not to love?

★★★★★Software Development
I hate carrying things. Mostly because I’m forgetful and leave them behind. I needed a professional solution to carry my keys, wallet, snacks, chapstick, USB stick, RFID badge, more snacks… et cetera. This blazer is essentially my wearable purse. It’s not stiff so I can roll up the sleeves while at the keyboard so they don’t constantly catch on the edge of the desk, and it makes me look serious and somewhat intimidating (very important for the unapproachable introvert). It stretches so I can still wear a bulky sweater underneath in the winter or a T-shirt in the summer. Small spills roll right off and doesn’t show a wet spot if you tend to knock over liquids (I don’t do this, of course…). Also, animal hair doesn’t stick to this material nearly as much as my other jackets so I rarely have to lint roll it despite having multiple fluffy potatoes that like to cuddle. It doesn’t wrinkle so I never have to iron it. Basically it’s exactly what I needed to maintain a look of professionalism with minimal effort! I like to preserve my effort. Pretty sure it’s made of the same material as Doctor Strange’s cape. Highly recommend.

★★★★★State inspector
I often enter industrial sites as an inspector then have to transition to major medical sites. Not only is the everywhere blazer perfect for this, so are their boots. I can’t wait for more releases to add to my wardrobe!

★★★★★Life Sciences (Industrial Manufacturing)
I could cry… I’m 5’9” and have wide shoulders. I’ve never found a suit jacket that fit my shoulders, torso length AND waist. The fabric is butter soft but very durable and the pocket details are amazing. I am a supply chain manager that oversees purchasing, production planning, receiving and shipping so I’m all over the plant most days. This jacket will keep me looking great and feeling great. I just placed an order for the black jacket so now I will have both. PLEASE come out with a burgundy, tan/cream, and smoke gray jacket in this cut!! I will purchase them ALL!

★★★★☆Wine Production
Quality, fit, fabric, pockets, styling all fabulous. Very comfortable - the stretchy fabric is great. It is a bit too heavy for year-round wear for where I live (hot summer climate) but will be great for Fall or Winter wear. I wish this was a true dark navy color as it is a bit hard to pair with other pieces.

★★★★★Barry Callebaut
I purchased pair of work boots and blazer for work meeting at our factory. Just took them for run this week and 😍😍😍 The blazer is such a great fit and is so comfortable I will be ordering another. Boots I did order 1 size up like recommend and so thankful I did. Great job to female owned small businesses A+

★★★★★Museum/Archives/Library
tl:dr: I love this blazer, & I'm really fussy. It's super-functional, but I would not hesitate to wear it to a conference or job interview. Xena's Everywhere Utility blazer? My only issue with it is that it didn't exist 25-30 years ago. I'm ***** but otherwise skinny. As in, below the waist I'm a full two sizes smaller than above. This blazer is true to size, and doesn't bind or gap. Magic. First time I wore it was to our annual full-day employee "retreat", which I believe occupies its own special level of Hades. The blazer is really comfy, long enough to cover my usual untucked button-down shirt, and - POCKETS! Real pockets that can actually hold things! I've been moderately obsessed with having decent pockets since I was a little girl (I think that was during the Pleistocene Era), and between Xena's blazers and Duluth Trading's women's jeans, I finally have enough pockets to hold most of my tools and gear. Sometimes I still have to get out my workbelt, but not nearly so often now. I use the jewelry clasp & interior pocket for my keys or a penlight, and it's great not having to fish around for that stuff. Where I work, it's usually really cold for climate-control (museum archives/rare books) reasons. This jacket is warm without being heavy. I'm still going to default to ratty flannel shirts & leather or LL Bean jackets when I have to use a chainsaw, but mostly because I'd feel a little silly wearing a blazer while cutting up trees. But pushing cars or airplanes around? Definitely wearing the blazer! I know my walkie-talkie, cellphone, measuring tape, keys, readers, earplugs, razor knife, screwdriver, etc., won't fall out. I'm often schlepping around boxes of old books or antique car parts (I do not work at a normal museum). Plus at home there are two cats. The jacket seems to not pick up cat hair as much as my other black blazers do, and also seems to be resilient against dust and even somewhat against motor oil! And I really like that Xena seems to be open to expanding their size options. I've had trouble in the past getting steel-cap boots to fit my narrow feet, but it's equally important to have larger sizes for everything. Especially if you're working somewhere cold enough that you have to layer up under your nice blazer. I have come to hate flying commercially, so haven't airport-tested this jacket yet, but if any garment could make me feel more secure about not losing half my essentials during the TSA Torture Routine, it would be this. For the record, I'm generally pretty cranky and don't leave rave reviews for products. This is an exception. I want to go back in time and buy this blazer for my mom when she was still working, running her own company, and one for me when I started my first Serious Professional Job.

★★★★★Mechanical Manufacturing; Monitoring & Diagnostics
This blazer fits like a dream and is super comfortable. Easy to pack and wear with only the initial steam to get the packaged creases out. For reference; I’m 5’4” roughly 165lbs and typically an 8 in blazers. The medium is slightly snug, but I’m also carrying some extra weight and the large would be too big.
