    New (to me) jacket from eBay

    Just received my new jacket and matching waistcoat that I won on eBay. I am quite excited and other than having to shorten the sleeve a bit, the fit is pretty darn good! It is a nice, vintage houndstooth Haggart's of Aberfeldy tweed with real staghorn buttons.

    You just received it? Like, this morning? And you're already drinking a Guinness this early in the day?

    Well done.

    That was last night... finally posted this morning. Were I not working, I may wish to crack a stout though!! This particular one is a somewhat local stout made by New Glarus Brewing in New Glarus, WI.

    Really nice. I love the colors and pattern of the tweed.

    Splendid buy Isaac, one can almost feel the texture of the material and the tailoring appears top notch. Cheers to you sir

    Great find. EBay has not been good to me wrt kilt jacket shopping. I have found a couple wonderful tweeds that I plan to wear at school this fall. I will probably have one converted after I graduate so I can wear it with my kilt.

    But, again, great find.
