    Quick question Alan (or anyone that has see a gauntlet cuff in real life), the verticle lines on the cuffs and pockets of an argyll jacket, are they just a pleat in the material, a line of stitching or something else?

    I believe they're braid stitched onto the cuffs and pocket flaps.

    Ah, yes...Cav got there at the right time...I stopped at Old Navy today and found them marked down to $29....pays to stalk these things.
    And I just remembered that there's a very nice Middle-Eastern gentleman with a tailor's shop over on Cicero Avenue who did some alterations for me a few years ago...wonder what he'd charge to do a professional job?

    I believe they're piping (a small formed tube of the same material or something like it) stitched down to the basic material of the cuff or pocket flap.
