    [QUOTE=jsrnephdoc;1411411]I HAD heard the term, but I was unaware of its significance. I take it from your description that a waistcoat made from such fabric would not likely be available at retail to some ordinary person NOT titled by family roots or employment to wear it?[/]

    You are possibly familiar with Gun Club Checks as they are called in the US. The original version is very close to the Coigach Estate Tweed.
