'Kilt' Jackets

the rectangular corners are going to cover half his sporran

The sporran, in it's basic form, serves a function, and doesn't have to be seen to serve its function.

As for the comments about his boots, or size of his jacket let's stay focused and discuss the look of the jacket with a kilt.

OK . . .focus.

It doesn't look good. Sorry.

In the back, the tail of the jacket will cover some of the pleating and deter the sway of the kilt. (That famous sway is a major draw to the look of the kilt, at least for some ladies.)

In the front, it hangs too far down and doesn't split as a proper jacket does. And, even though a sporran would serve its function if worn in the back like a fanny pack, the fact is that it is also a stylistic piece that should be seen.

You can wear whatever you like, of course. We don't care. But a sports coat does not ever look so good as a kilt jacket. That's why we wear kilt jackets. ith:
