    Actually, I had seen that, but it's an XL and I need an R (I think I forgot to mention that). Glad it's going to work for you, Bill.
    It was the navy blue that I bought, Bakuda - was that what you were looking at?

    I just thought it was funny that you swooped in and grabbed it. But to be fair, you requested this very jacket before I put up my request, so I’m very glad you found it!

    Oh my heavens, my friend - I thought you were pointed at the black one. Do you want this one? You can have it and I'll keep looking.

    Nope, it's yours! Again, it's an XL and I'm worried it'll be a bit too long. I'm sure I'll find something before the big day and if all else fails I can rent a tweed jacket and vest.

    Well that’s certainly my size, and it’s not tweed, so I wish you the best and every blessing for you both!

    You could try MacGregor and MacDuff https://macgregorandmacduff.co.uk/co...x-hire-outfits - they have some ex-hire jackets for sale, but don't list the sizes - so you would need to contact them.

    Kilts4Less has had some mixed reviews on here - mainly for their kilts and that some see their "ex-hire" stock as a sales ploy. My understanding is that they are both a supplier and a clearance house for the kilt industry. I have recently bought a couple of jackets from them (and have previously bought 2 others) - no issues at all with any of the items and their customer service and delivery times are fantastic.

    They have 2 "ex-hire" grey twee jackets in 50R https://www.kilts4less.com/store/ex-hire-jackets/


    And a navy tweed set - in 48R or 50R https://www.kilts4less.com/product/n...r-jacket-vest/

    I've seen the MacGregor and MacDuff jackets and I love them! Sadly, they're sold out of my size. I am considering that dark gray Kilts4Less jacket and vest. It's not exactly what I'm looking for but at the same time it's not too bad. The mixed reviews of Kilts4Less has also been a factor of causing me to hesitate. You've bought a few jackets from them? Were they ex-hire? How do they look and feel compared to other jackets?
