What is the difference in the sport coat, and an argyle jacket? Is it just the cut? Could I purchase a black sport coat at a thirft store, and modify it by, say...cutting the waist length shorter? What separates a sport coat, from an Argyle?
I have limited budget, and time...but my wife can sew like the dickens.

Mainly its about the cut. Shorter, and with room for the sporran. If you do a search for jacket conversions on the forum, you'll find detailed discussions as to how to go about converting a sport coat to kilt jacket, and lots of great photos of the work in progress. Good luck.
Best regards,
