    Another good point, but I'm referring to the contemporary day jackets converted from a modern lapel and pocket placement. I should mention that I'm keeping an eye out for a tweed 'patch-pocket' that I can convert and move the whole thing. I think that an inch or even a little less would make it more pleasing to the eye.
    Scotland is only 1/5 the size of Montana, but Scotland has over 3,000 castles and Montana has none.

    Good luck with that. I eliminate over 90% of conversion candidates because of unsuitable (sorry) slash pocket placement. Be aware that even patch pocket jackets can have seams, darts and other problems hidden under the patches.
