This one is also too long to wear with a kilt.

If you want a period (18th C.) jacket to wear with your kilt (and don't want to spend the big bucks on a tartan one) this is what you want:

Actually, this one is NOT too long to wear with a kilt. Rev War period highland soldiers wear waistcoats of this length with their philabegs and belted plaids, and they look fine....

Agreed, for someone wishing to dress in period clothes this would make a fine waistcoat.. but for proper modren dress it is too long. From reading the origional post again I think Computergeek is looking for an overcoat which would look good with a kilt. I would suggest an inverness cape.

The ones at the other end of the link are really still too long. The Inverness Cape worn with the kilt should come to just below the knee - well, that's what Thompson reckons.
