    New to me Jacket and Waistcoat

    Today there was a big package at my door from a friend, inside was a tweed jacket and waistcoat that did not fit him but would fit me. I tried it on and took the photo below. It is a good heavy tweed with leather buttons and scalloped waistcoat pockets. I'm sure to get lots of wear as it fits perfectly and is great with the Wildcat Tartan and will work with many others I'm sure, thanks again Cole.

    Excellent. It looks like a perfect compliment to that tartan. You have a very good friend, indeed.

    Cole included a photo of the original owner wearing the jacket circa 1930's. That makes it even more special.

    Now that is the way to dress imo. The only time I decry the balmy weather of Az is when I'd like to suit up.
    I have to go to Flagstaff and 7k feet to dress appropriately. That's a long climb btw.

    Very nice indeed ! Love the color of the tweed . I should think that jacket would compliment most any tartan .

    Glen, any shot you'd be willing/able to share that photo? I think it would make for an interesting then/now comparison.
