    That is where I got mine from. Not top quality but it works for the four times a year I go formal. It is a good starter coat or good if your weight has changed drastically in the past three years due to heath issues

    GEOFFREY-MADE FOR SCOTTISH (commonly found on ebay).
    Geoffrey is now reckoned as the most prestigious brand from its region due to massive difference in quality, style and design of its products. Also, our customer oriented policies gives us another edge.
    These chaps offer Argyle Jacket 38" to 56". I have one, it's rubbish!

    Inferior fabric (suspect it's polyester blend not pure wool although I haven't done a burn test). Poor quality tailoring both in cut and sewing. Cheap nasty buttons in ended up removing. And apparently it's the best of the bunch. My advice would be avoid!

    I'm not a paying advertiser here on the forums, so i can't go into much detail. SKYE HIGHLAND OUTFITTERS DOUBLETS ARE NOT MADE IN PAKISTAN!!

    Sorry to yell that, but I'm emailed that question constantly and its almost a comical joke here that if I go to hell, I'll be put in a room and asked that question for eternity.

    I will say that I have sewn chevrons on doublets that were bought from Geofreys that were seemingly OK.

    Sorry about suggesting the Pakistani link - lack of info on my end lead to assumption!

    Out of curiosity, where are the doublets made? I know glengarry hats uses a Pakistani manufacturer, but is able to assert some quality control.
