Finally...a more formal outfit with tweed.

[scotswelshrunner]

I'm more concerned about the length of the jacket than the hem of the kilt. We can see some knee. You're good.

That looks like a regular sportcoat: no sporran cutaway, body longer than the arms, etc. You should look into converting it yourself or find someone to help you. There are many threads about jacket conversion on the forum.

You are right in that it is indeed a regular tweed sport coat. This was a spur of the moment addition but is not tailored for a sporran. I'm certainly no good with needle and thread so doing it myself is out of the question. As for having it done,yes my local seamstress said she could tailor it better but as mentioned in another post,it would be $40 and up. That makes the cost of the jacket considerable and way out of my price range. I don't mind being poor except in the clothes dept! :-)

But, who knows. To be honest, I like this look and the way the outfit works. It is not up to certain Highland dress standards though and so I shall tweak where I can w/o spending too many dollars. I'll look into a different jacket as well since Goodwill and Value Village seem to have occasional deals. This jacket set me back a whole $8.
