Good point Todd, but most people outside the kilt wearing world don't have a clue about "kilt formal" and would think the Argyll is dressy enough. I also think that there is not the level of formality in North America that exists in the UK with regards to kilts. An Argyll will be accepted at all but the most formal of events. It is also a versatile jacket that will adapt well to most events. Personally a PC would be a wast eof money for me, as the amount of really formal events that I attend are limited and sparse, whereas I have already worn my charcoal tweed Argyll and Waistcoat to 3 weddings since ordering it in April. My Burns Night last year consisted of only 4 people in kilts, the piper, the MC, the gentleman that cut the haggis, and myself. At least nobody was wearing a t-shirt, Burns deserves at least a shirt and tie.
