    WTB: Tweed jacket/waistcoat 38R

    Just throwing this out there in case something turns up:

    I've been long on the lookout for a tweed kilt jacket/waistcoat (size 38R) -- preferring a medium grey along the lines of Harris's HM001 herringbone, or Isle Mill's Glenn Shee GT117 hound's tooth pattern -- or a derby tweed....

    Watch eBay (UK). There are lots of interesting jackets/waistcoats that pop up there, frequently in smaller sizes. I've seen a lot of 38R lately.

    We have a Harris Tweed kilt jacket and waistcoat about that size in a black & white shepherd's check on sale right now at the STM gift shop. You might want to give them a call at 1-866-898-1192.

    This was mentioned in a recent thread Tim. 'USA Kilts' have a special offer on tweed jackets and vests, select your size, material and options of adornments such as sleeve type, epaulettes etc.

    Many thanks for the suggestions.... I'll continue to keep an eye on EBay in particular since second-hand is more likely to fit my budget these days.
