Which jacket?

[bubba]

You will have the jacket modified for the kilt, right? Go with charcoal

[arrogcow]

Of the three go with the charcoal. Keep checking E-bay for a light grey (solid not the hound's tooth) or a lovat blue or green as well for a good choice.

I'm gonna go along with the rest of the kilted herd and say "charcoal."

No doubt.

In contrast to just about eveyone else who has expressed an opinion, I'm going to say go with one of the first two. Each of them has that classic Scottish "gun club" tweed look to it, and I think would look smashing when worn with a kilt.

Light or dark would just be your personal preference.

Only problem is you'd have to have these jackets shortened.

The House of Edgar woolen mill is offering several tweed patterns like this that are modeled after the old Scottish estate tweeds and gun club patterns.

Though not pictured on the site, they also offer as part of the line a number of solids that are made to tone well with their tweed offerings.

I wish they were offering jackets made from these tweeds, but so far as I know they are not. You can purchase the cloth, though, and have a jacket made for you, and a vest.

Aye,
Matt

I like the charcoal best. That's my vote

The cut and length of the jackets shown isn't suitable for kilts...

but the charcoal color is definitely the right choice.

If modified, the charcoal jacket wins

[Wompet]

If PK: modified charcoal gray, hose up, no fez.
If XMarks: ... hmm ... of the three pictured, I would still go with the charcoal.
If time and money allow: Matt's suggestion of newly-constructed tweed kilt jacket, to match the PK, the XMarks, or - you also have that box-pleat tweed kilt, don't you?

Well, maybe not the tweed kilt. That much tweed may look more professorial than professional ... a good look, but not the one you're going for.

I'm with Matt - pick from jacket 1 or 2 - and the jacket will need to be shortened or your upper/lower body proportions will look odd.

Sorry guys, I should have made it clear that these are off the rack jackets that I will be modifying (a la Alan H!) to be kilt jackets.
