Kilt jackets

[bwat]

Now that you've been versed in styles, let me make a suggestion. I know I'll get jumped on for this, but think hard about getting a Wallace style jacket from Freedom Kilts, The Wizard's business. You'll hardly ever find them discussed anywhere. They're less costumish than the so called traditional styles

*overly dramatic gasp* Costumish??? Ach I suppose all these jackets are just individual points on a continuum and one man's costume is another's cultural indicator. I'm not going to jump on you.

I really like mine, it's very clean and simple, about like any suit coat you might buy at a men's store, but kilt cut.

If I found myself wanting to wear a jacket like that I'd end up wearing a suit. To me, a kilt jacket without the "costume" bits is a bit like a Scottish baronial building without all the wee turrets. The classic look is a smart one in my eyes. I get the feeling I've thought this ever since I was a young lad and such jackets were examples of expensive prestige clothing mainly seen on special occasions.
