The Tweed Argyll.

[Jock Scot]

Thanks Jock!

Your post is very timely for me as I have been recently considering (fretting) all of the things that you listed; sleeve style, color, tweed pattern etc. and trying to match them to the type of event I am most likely to attend. All of which fit into the group you listed as appropriate for tweed.

I still tend to follow my North American tendencies toward color/tone matching, but am getting a bit more relaxed about that.

My only "yet to be decided" is the sleeve style, (currently have it down to Braemar or Crail), but will just have to commit and pull the trigger!


Thanks for your continued input and support for those of us not raised in the culture, it really helps a lot.

Best Regards,
Brooke

Do you mind if I ask a question? Well alright, I will ask it and hope you don't mind!

Out of pure curiosity nothing more, why is the gauntlet cuff of an argyll going to be rejected? I notice others of the "new age" kilt wearers also reject it, maybe for the same reason as you, I really don't know, but I would love to know your reasoning for your choice.
