Not to mention you can customize your jacket in regards to cuff style, flat-cloth or braided epaulettes, or none (I like either no epaulettes, or braided - I never liked the look of flat-cloth epaulettes), and either a 1, 2, or 3 button front. Rocky at USA Kilts makes it very easy to select what you prefer!
Cheers,
You pretty much took the words out of my mouth, Kyle. I had seen that green windowpane tweed jacket on eBay as well (made to order), and loved the looks of it. But if I were going to have a made-to-measure jacket made for me in a tweed of my choosing, I'd go with Rocky. It simply eliminates most of the risks and unknowns of ordering overseas from an unknown person.
