Thanks!
I just bought the Norwegian jacket... it's not every day I can find a 50 Reg on eBay!!!
It probably won't fit, but for $23, I'll take a chance...

Man, them's cheap. I've bought enlisted an officer's Ike Jackets from Jerry at What Price Glory for much more...they're replicas from Pakistan. Same with the RAF Battlejacket.
They go well with kilts.
Don't do ebay though....too many horror stories and too much spam without even being a member.

any photos?
I was thinking of getting a military style jacket to go with my kilts, but didnt want to buy one and then it not look right. Do you have any photos of the jacket being worn with the kilt you can share, so I can get an idea?
Thanks,

Can I share photos!?
Here's a concentrated group of pics.

If that doesn't work for you they are throughout my gallery albums, mostly the weathered Gordon, X Marks, and UKs.
Remember, Jerry offers a lot of size options...like I'm a 52....a size the military probably never ordered. But he has regular, tall, and fat options for each size.
My jackets are decorated in memory of my father's RAF service, my father's AAC service, and my uncle's Army service. Jerry also sells a couple British Army battlejackets.
Me, I like the look.

Um.... I can go to my uniform shop right now and grab an Eisenhower in a 52. Perhaps the WWII era stuff wouldn't be that big, but they certainly make stuff that big these days.
The one I can get looks like this:
