    With my lovat green arygll tweed jacket I often wear a claret waistcoat I obtained from the Gentlemens Emporium. It is straight cut across the bottom and has a collar. I also wear a doeskin waistcoat in olive green to vary it up a bit.

    Thanks,

    I must say, that's a fine looking tartan, Richard!

    Indeed it is, Kyle, indeed it is.

    It's pleated to the double white stripe so looks quite impressive from the back too.

    *EDIT* An old photo, but just to illustrate.

    My Macpherson kilt in the 'ancient' colour scheme is pleated in the same fashion. Well done!

    Great minds think alike, obviously!
