    Well, Panache's comment in this thread about my jacket is right on the money. My "Argyll" jacket from Hector-Russel is really a Braemar. Not that I mind er..mind you.

    I still like the jacket and it's not for work wear. I bought it for events we attend so a little more formal is good and it's not up to the point of a PC which I wouldn't need more than once a year if that.

    Man, I still look hideous in that picture in the other thread but what the hey. It was a long day for everyone involved.

    This drawing is from Burnetts & Struth's catalog. Probably the best explanation there is.




    This is our Jacket.



    There is already an
    Argyll, Braemar, and Crail, how about I call this one the Donegal.

    I wear the kilt because:
    Swish + Swagger = Swoon.

    Wouldn't the Dundee or Dumfries follow better in the above pattern?

    Yea, it probably would, but the fabric is Donegal Tweed.
    And I figure as bad as most people are with Geography they won't know that it's not even on the same island.
