Good to know: Some blazers may contain haircloth in the chest area to create the classic tailored fit of men's blazers.
Haircloth is a stiff, sturdy fabric typically made from horsehair and/or camel wool. In traditional suit tailoring, haircloth is used to strengthen the front panels in men's suit jackets, and Savile Row tailors continue to make bespoke suits using this material. In modern suits, haircloth is often replaced with synthetic fabrics.
