How we came to this concept... a friend / customer of ours ordered a grey tweed jacket and vest. When it came in, Kelly LOVED it and INSISTED that I get one for myself (who am I to say no?), so I ordered it.

While it was on order, she asked if I was going to make a matching kilt for the jacket to make it a complete outfit. I thought it sounded like a GREAT idea and the "Solid 5 yarder" and Solid Smi Trads were born (yes, we're going to make our Semi Trad in solid PV too...).

Even without the solid kilt, the tweed day jackets are VERY classy. If you just rock the vest with a white button down (no tie... sleeves rolled up) and a kilt, you have the "GQ kilt" look.
