    Huniting attire jacket

    While back I recall seeing a kilted gentleman wearing what could only be described as a hunting jacket. As I recall it had leather elbow's and a shoulder pad sewn onto the jacket which was a green color and cut away as a normal kilt jacket would be cut.

    Anyone remember seeing this - and - is it a common kind of garment for walking the hills and perhaps chasing a bird or other critter?

    I don't know how common it is, but I think The Scottish Tartans Museum has you covered:

    They are refered to shooting Jackets... Matt had a picture of a blue one on, in a previous post

    If it was the shooting jacket from Empire Canvas Works they are available at The Scottish Tartan Museum. I have one and love it for cooler weather.

    Only a Canadian could describe calf deep snow as "cooler weather". Notice how when Matt says winter he has bare trees and fallen leaves but no snow in his background.

    Folks have already posted the link to our web site where you can purchase a kilt-cut shooting jacet (thanks!), so I thought I'd add my own pics. This jacket gets lots of wear in the winter!
