"Jacobite" garb

[Woodsheal]

Thanks for the link woodsheal! was a great help. Iwas looking at their 1770 wool waistcoats. I know its the wrong era but could you use a rev war style waistcoat in a jacobite outfit (1745)

The 1770s waistcoat is technically the wrong era, but IS the right length for 1745 Highland garb -so lots of guys use them for that purpose. I do, too, because the differences in cut between the two periods are slight.

As for the 1740s highland coat, it is merely a shortened version of the same pattern worn by other European men. Coats had changed quite a bit by the 1770s, however....
