Braemar Tweed Jacket & Waistcoat from USA Kilts

Tuesday's are my long day at school, I have four classes between 10:20 AM and 7:00 PM. I'm checking my mail on the way home and there is a key in it, I remember late friday night getting an email from Rocky and I insert the key with anticipation. Inside what did I find? A box from USA Kilts! On Feb, 28, i had ordered a Braemar Jacket & waistcoat in the Hunter Loch tweed.

It's late but here are the first glimpses of the both items:





More and better pics to come..........

Dying to see how they look on? Are these made to measure or of-the-rack?

A very smart looking tweed there, I look forward to the photos of you wearing them, the Jacket and ZWaistcoat should look grand with the Douglas Weathered.
