Well, as the title says, I am asking about a sports coat. I did a search and didn't find an answer to my question, which is:
If you don't have the classic or proper jacket to go with your kilt, can you get by wearing a sports coat? This would be for an upscale casual time out like putting the jacket on over a polo shirt with jeans. Or, perhaps, it is with casual slacks and a button down shirt.

I've read that you can treat a kilt like jeans for attire but I just was curious.

BTW, the jacket is not lime green striped or yellow paisley. Wife tossed those out years ago.
