sports jacket
Informal suit top
A sports jacket is a man's casual suit jacket worn with unmatched trousers, distinguished from a blazer by its patterned fabric—tweed, herringbone, or plaid rather than solid colors.
Originally designed for outdoor activities like shooting and hunting, it now serves as smart-casual attire: He threw on a sports jacket over his jeans for dinner.
Also called a sport coat.
