Sacos Para Hombre | Western Blazers & Sport Coats
Sacos Para Hombre: Western Blazers and Sport Coats
A saco is what turns a shirt and boots into a finished outfit. At La Herradura Western Wear we carry over one hundred men's blazers built for how you actually wear them, at a wedding, a quinceañera, a baile, or a Sunday at the ranch. You will find suede gamuza cuts from Platini, embroidered bordado styles from Lamasini and Montero, and Circle S sport coats with printed interior linings, in colors that pair with the boots and hats you already own.
Prices start at $79.99 for a smooth liso blazer and reach $209.99 for a full combo set, with most of the collection between $119.99 and $144.99. Orders over $200 ship free, and you can try any of these on in person at our Selma, NC and Columbia, SC stores.
Choosing the Right Saco
Suede and gamuza blazers are the workhorse of the category. Platini's gamuza line in camel, chocolate, charcoal, navy and off white reads dressy without reading formal, which makes it the safest pick when you do not know how dressed up the event will be. Rancher cuts sit slightly longer with western yoke detailing across the shoulders, and that is the silhouette that looks correct next to a felt hat. Embroidered bordado styles from Lamasini and Montero carry tonal thread work across the chest and back, where black on black works at a wedding and mustard or wine belongs at a baile. Modern fit stretch blazers are cut closer through the waist for a current look, and Circle S sport coats are the dress end of the range, built for the Houston and rodeo circuit.
Building the Full Look
Start with a solid Ariat or Platini shirt under a suede blazer. If the saco is embroidered, keep the shirt plain. If the saco is plain, a pedreria shirt gives you the detail instead. Dark rinse Cinch or Wrangler dress jeans work under everything we carry. Match boot tone to blazer tone without matching exactly, so chocolate and camel sacos go with Herradura boots in brown and honey, while black and charcoal go with black or dark cherry from our men's boot collection. Finish with a premium leather belt and a Montana silver buckle, and add a felt hat if the event calls for it. Dressing a son for the same occasion? We carry matching boys blazers and sacos.
Sizing and Fit
Lamasini and Montero run one size smaller than standard American sizing, so order up. Platini modern fit runs closer to true to size but is cut slim through the waist. Circle S runs true to size. The shoulder seam should sit at the edge of your shoulder, and the sleeve should end at the wrist bone with about half an inch of shirt cuff showing. If you are between sizes and the blazer is suede, size up, because suede has no give. Call Selma at (919) 351-0295 or Columbia at (910) 596-7393 if you want help sizing.
Care
Never put suede or gamuza in water. Brush in one direction with a suede brush after each wear and store on a wide wooden hanger. Embroidered smooth blazers can be dry cleaned, but tell the cleaner about the thread work so they press around it. Always hang a saco, never fold it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a saco?
Saco is the Spanish term for a men's blazer or sport coat. In western wear it usually means a blazer with rancher or vaquero detailing, worn with jeans and boots rather than dress slacks.
What is the difference between a saco and a chamarra?
A saco is a tailored blazer meant for dressing up. A chamarra is a casual jacket meant for warmth. If you want outerwear instead, see our Cuadra jackets.
Can I wear a saco with jeans?
Yes, and in western wear that is the standard way to wear one. A dark rinse jean with a clean boot and a suede or rancher saco is correct for weddings, bailes and church.
