    Kilt Jacket Buttons on the Cheap???

    Hey guys,

    Getting ready for my brother's wedding this January, assembling the kilted outfit. Got a great deal on an argyle jacket from USA Kilts, and found a perfect 5 button waistcoat for $50 to go with it at Le Chateau, a men's clothing store here in Toronto.

    I'd like to replace the waistcoat's black buttons with argyle jacket buttons, to make a proper looking argyle waistcoat. Although I think I have to go for the smaller sized ones, like the one's found on the jacket's arms, near the cuffs.

    Long story short, any idea where I can find kilt jacket replacement buttons, the small ones, on the cheap????

    You might want to check with the manufacturer of the jacket and see if you can ger matching ones. I would be surprised if they didn't sell extra buttons.

    I've heard only good things about Three Feathers from the folks here at X-Marks (I got my buttons from J.Higgins, which were also good).
