    Smile Jacket conversion source

    I just picked up a jacket that I will use for a conversion for 5 bucks at goodwill. Some days they have a 50% sale day. Now I just have to get to the tailors.

    Where you been man, I'll do the bugger, PM me. Pics tomorrow on my latest. "patrol" style kilt jacket. Hmmm, seems to me, from your posts, you're an Irishman? How about some beautiful Royal Irish Buttons?

    Good God, have I become a kilt tailor whore??

    I've been here all along. I found these button guys just need to order them. My point was that goodwill has sale days during the week and getting jackets for conversions can be cheap at places like this. Still hunting for a tweed though.
