    Most higlandwear outlets will be able to supply a Montrose doublet. They are not usually made to measure nowadays. I outgrew mine a few years ago (after I stopped smoking) but you can really sweat off the pounds in one and they don't look good unbuttoned. I keep saying this but a Sheriffmuir is a smart, formal jacket which is also open so helps keep the temperature down. These Montrose doublets date from the old days before central heating when you needed all the insulation you could get!

    My Montrose (taking a deep breath)



    and my Sheriffmuir a bit more relaxed



    You can wear a waistcoat (vest) with it too
