    My vote is for charcoal.

    And pull the hose up.

    Yep, add me to that list. If this is your first time resizing a jacket to kilt length, maybe try on one of the others first (or buy a $10 one at a thrift store). I thought it would be easy, but it isn't as easy as I had thought. I also agree with Matt that the top two would also made great jackets.

    Jamie, your jacket looks very similar to this one, 3 buttons and the lapels are higher than on other jackets. I had thought about just faux flaps for the pockets, and that is probably the way I will go. Lack of time will force me to take the easiset approach.

    Charcoal matches almost anything.

    Charcoal tweed would also be my choice. More versatile than the others.
