    USA Kilts ??

    Does anyone have one of their Argyll Vests? If so, are they of good quality and fit ? Any other issues ?

    Thanks...

    I have one of their tweed argylll jacket and waistcoat combo. Yes they are a good quality, being made by the StKilda Group of companies. It is a good fit for a standard off the rack. As with all clothing, if you want a perfect fit, you go with custom tailoring.

    Thanks for the reply. I probably wouldn't wear it often enough to justify a custom tailored vest. I just wanted a satisfied customer to verify that I won't be making a mistake in ordering one.

    I appreciate it...

    I have an 'Argyll' tweed jacket and waistcoat (in a brown check tweed by Lovat Mill in their medium weight, Kirkton range) currently on order with Rocky at USA Kilts and I highly recommend them. Rocky is very personable and is all business. I am a stickler for detail and having things done to my (often weird/OCD) specifications, so trust me, USA Kilts is a very good route to go.

    Thank You Very Much!! I just ordered the vest. USA Kilt was recommended to me, but I wasn't certain. And wanted some opinions, such as yours. You have allayed my apprehension...

    You will be happy, no doubt. USAK does great work and has excellent quality items. I also have a tweed jacket and vest combo, but mine are made to measure as well. However, I would still recommend their stuff even off the rack (and have been eyeballing their black argyle/vest off the rack myself).
