[QUOTE=M. A. C. Newsome;338914]Rocky is right that the names of these jackets can be awefully confusing. "Argyle" is often used as a general name for this particular cut of jacket. Made from a tweed, or a lighter color worsted wool, it is suitable for day wear (and is often just called a "Day wear jacket"). Made from black or another dark color it can be worn more formally.
The Argyle jacket is usually made with guantlett cuffs (like in Bob's picture).
This has always been my understanding and is why I prefer the 'Argyle' jacket to the other styles. In fact if I ordered an 'Argyle' jacket and received one with anything other than gauntlet cuffs I'd send it back.
The Kilt is my delight !
