Lochcarron Jacket
My first kilt jacket. I was confused and asked Kathy Lare to help out. From what I wanted we decided on Lochcarron's Argyll Tweed in Grey Lovat from their Highlander Collection.
The neat part is being a weird shaped guy I could order a custom fit. Lochcarron cut it to size for my collar to waist length, center back to wrist for perfect sleeve length, chest size and waist size.
No, its not cheap, but it is elegant and it fits perfectly. Features include being fully lined, functional side, chest, and inside wallet pockets, three staghorn buttons on each sleeve, three on each side pocket flap, one on each of the epaulettes, and the button that buttons the front.
The detail is amazing. Each sleeve end, the side pocket flaps and the eppaulettes have little decorative seams sewn in below the buttons.
And, of course it was sewn up in Scotland.
I am one happy camper.


I know the hose are off...just wanted to get some pics and this is what I was wearing when the jacket arrived.
So, if you want custom sizing rather than off the rack, get ahold of Kathy Lare.
