I admire the skill that went into the red one It looks very nice but it's a bit bold for me. The others are STELLAR!!

Cheers,

Agree Kyle, and I would like a red waistcoat to wear with my regulation doublet

It reminds me of military mess kit. It might be a bit over the top for me because my kilts have so much red but I like the kilt you paired it with. On the right person, I think it would stand out nicely. It would be good for an older gent perhaps with military medals or something. I might get confused with the bar staff wearing something like that.

The red would make a statement, for sure. What caught my eye was the rugby jersey on the left. Edinburgh, isn't it? Do you sell those?

Makes me think of a Highland toastmaster (or a hunt tailcoat).

That said, I think it looks pretty sharp!

Like many have said Rocky, I appreciate it, but don't know where or when I would wear it. It's paired with a black tie, though I thought the goal of black tie was to blend in, as in a room full of tuxedos. No risk of blending in while wearing that!!

A second bit of feedback, if I may, perhaps you could pair the day sporrans and casual outfits with straps instead of chains? Although I know many sporrans come with chains, it may add a bit of additional up sale opportunity for you to pair them with a more traditional component in the display, and may help the uninitiated to get a better idea of what day wear "should" look like . Just a thought.

Best wishes for your continued success!

I would wear those for an occasion.

Yes, it is an Edinburgh Rugby jersey. We don't sell them (it was mine... I just brought it in for the mannequin).

Nicely done, Rocky. Those are strange looking cuffs on the other jacket, though?

Very sharp, Rocky!

I think the Regulation doublet is lovely. Definitely not for me (red always makes me look very flushed) but smashing none the less.

I do think it would be even sharper with black lapels.
