Ditto, except for the road trip. I say we send photos demonstrating the need for such sizing in a graphic and unforgettable manner.

The jackets will be sized S,M,L,XL with a short,medium and long length option.
We think the price will be around $300.00 Canadian.
Would these options not cover most people? i'm assuming that they are being built in house or at the request of Freedom Kilts. Should this not allow custom sizing when required?

How about a 40 short in black wool? An understated, elegant jacket style like that in black would probably look good for almost all occasions. I have been looking for a kilt jacket in exactly the style you have made and NO ONE is making them. Let me know either way if you have plans for black.
Also, where did that nice sporran come from?

OK some answers to the questions you are asking.
The kilt jackets are being made in house and custom sizing will be available as soon as we have the standard patterns down pat.
The two Tweeds were ordered straight from Donegal Ireland, and it was mucho expensive, so I wanted to get these done before I ordered any extra or special fabrics.
Black will be an option but I think black is a much more formal color and these jackets were designed to be sport coats.
The Charcoal Tweed is almost a black but with some dark gray interspersed. I think you will like it.
Hagrid size will come. just give me some time. Girl size,,,,,well girls have those weird shapes. But we'll see.
ccga3359, it's 1840hrs.
The sporran is a Buzz Kidder. My apologies to those out there with fashion sense. I am out of the brown sporrans so had to use a black one in the photo.
Matching and contrasting Waistcoats will be available, but again, give me some time.
Next question?

Well, let's see,,,The Corduroy one fits me 'cause I was the mannikin. Then the brown Tweed is mine 'cause I love the look of that fabric, Then the gray one is for me 'cause I'm the boss.
So I guess that means the line is 1.
Then I have to order some more Tweed from Ireland I suppose.
