Because of all the great threads on finding tweed sport coats and converting them for kilt-use, I've been peeking into vintage/Second-hand clothing stores and other places for some tweed of my own. Found quite a few interesting jackets but, so far, nothing quite the right size.

But yesterday I was in a store and found a Harris Tweed (so said the label inside) jacket that only had 1 button and 2 patch pockets right near the bottom. I know I'm a dummy as I didn't think to take a picture. I'll try to get back to that store this week.

But I'm wondering if it's likely that it was already a kilt jacket? I would have bought it on the spot had it been 2 sizes larger. I loved the color and think it would have gone well with my Buchanan modern.

If you HAD to guess (And since I was a knucklehead and didn't take a picture that's about all you can do lol) would you suspect it might have been a kilt jacket? Are there many one-button tweed jackets that are NOT for kilts? That one was the only 1-button jacket I saw. There were no gauntlet cuffs or anything though - the sleeve did seem to be flared out at the cuff and there was what appeared to be a leather, basket-weave type button on each arm.

I have the ladies at the store keeping an eye out for more tweed that comes in - I tried on some 46R jackets that were not tweed and they fit me but all the tweed was 42 or below and just too small. Still trying to learn all the different terms so sorry if I got them wrong too...
