Ancient green and Heath Loden tweed

[Shedlock2000]

Hi Guys,

Quick question:

I am just in the process of ordering that really in-expensive jacket and waistcoat combo that is perpetually advertised on eBay (the one for £189 in Heath Logan from Marton Mills - it is available in several cloths). I can only afford one jacket and waistcoat combo, so I am trying to match it with all my kilts.

Consequently, I am torn between the Heath Logan, and the Loden Antique.

My kilts are in:
Black Watch,
Pride of Scotland,
Weathered Buchanan,
Roxburgh Red Ancient,
Dewar

My question is, has anyone ever matched the Heath Logan to a tartan with Ancient green in it? I have seen it paired to Ancient orange often - and it goes nicely; Heath Logan also pairs well with forest green, darker tartans, the purple - and is almost the same green as that is in the Weathered Buchanan. But I can't find a photo of it paired with Ancient Green anywhere. Anyone help out with a photo?

The alternative is to go with the brown coloured Loden Antique - but I wanted something a little brighter than Dark brown, as I already have brown and black jackets.

Thanks for your help, guys!


P.S. I have read a lot of posts from people considering one of the combos of eBay - but no-one commenting after they have purchased. Any feedback?
