Charcoal tweed jacket in time for Christmas

[LKM]

This tweed braemar jacket that was ordered from thepipershut.com arrived yesterday. It is a good fit and my wife seemed quite happy with it. I do fit the thinner European style jackets better then the boxier US jackets. It was made by Gaelic Themes in Scotland, whose products can be found in various stores, and it appears to be the good quality I would expect from them. I just need to find what box my dress shoes are in from our recent move as I don't think brown work boots go that good with the dark Grey.



The kilt, tie, and pocket square/scrap material in my pocket are all the Prince of Wales tartan. The pocket square is a tartan sample. I probably should refold the pocket square to have less of the white showing as it seems to be such a contrast.

Sharp looking fit.

If I may recommend to you the pocket square be something completely different but complimenting what you'd wear. I don't sport a pocket square often, with the advice my clothier gave to me being to go with contrast vice attempting to match anything.
I do use tartan sample as a square for my regular suit/sport jackets.

The new jacket and waistcoat look great, I have often said that charcoal tweed is very versatile. Glad you got it before Christmas. I'm sure you'll get years of wear from it.

Very nice! The fit is excellent.

I had considered going with my solid green tie and pocket square or my black, red, white striped tie and red pocket square. I also thought about my purple and green striped tie and either the green or no pocket square. Chances are I will go with these options at times when I do not choose to go with the tartan.

Looks good. I do agree that the pocket square should contrast. I almost always just use white hanky--it works with everything with being so catchy-matchy that I look like an airline employee in uniform.

But the jacket, vest, and kilt look super. Rock that look!
