    Talking Go On Then Give us a Review!

    I've been on the look out for this type of tweed jacket it's a John Brown style three button Argyle, for a while, This isn't the finished attire as I'm awaiting some loverly red hose fay Chris at Dunadd(havin been let down by another supplier) plus i really would like a Goat hair sporran to go with,

    Any who..... I invite the rabble too...... well fire away


    I've got my old uncles fob watch but the present Mrs RSVPiper said it makes me look way too old!

    Oh pish-posh! Let's see it!

    I like the overall look, though I'm more of a fan of a leather sporran strap rather than a chain....but that's just me being nit-picky

    I love the jacket! I think you look great, and the goat hair sporran will be icing on the cake!

    The jacket and waistcoat look great. The only thing I'd do different is add a kilt pin, definately include the pocket watch and fob, it would set off the front of the waistcoat very nicely IMHO. Looks like you are ready for a day on the town for sure!

    your hose should be with you on Monday 8th Andy as I posted them this morning. I think they will complement your kilt and jacket quite nicely.
