    I'd say it's a score and a half... for your son!

    Matching the tweed waistcoat isn't absolutely required, so perhaps the thrift store will turn up something complementary.

    Not sure, there are no size markings. It is very small though, my son is 11.

    Nice! You know, there's no rule that says the waistcoat has to match. Pick a tartan waistcoat! Or even a black one!
