    There's also a scooped front waistcoat style that, I think, usually has four buttons. It's low cut like the three button, evening waistcoat, but has a "U" shaped neck and lapel, rather than the "V" shape. I like the "U" shape a little more.

    Are you putting together an outfit for something, Hawk?
    Or just replacing a waistcoat?
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Nope, just wanting something a little different from the usual black. I like a colored waistcoat with my black jacket. I'm getting a tartan one made from Albannach tartan, as well.

    Cool, tartan waistcoats are good.

    Sounds good to have a colored waistcoat, too.

    What color are you thinking of, or are you going to get a couple of waistcoats in different colors?

    I'm looking at either the green or red. They'll go well with everything I have. I'm leaning more towards the red, though. I like the statement that bright colors make. As to how many I'm getting- just one. I figure that with the tartan waistcoat and the black ones that I have, I should have a fairly well rounded wardrobe. I just want to get a grey tweed and I'll be happy.
