Who makes bespoke tartan waistcoats in North America?
I am wanting to get two (possibly more) waistcoats made from tartan material I have in-hand. These were custom weaves and need to match my kilts, so I can't just order a generic one online. I would need to send the material to the maker. Given the risks and costs associated with shipping back and forth to the UK, I would prefer to have it done by someone in the USA or Canada who can make them to my specifications.
I know that USA Kilts can have them made, but they apparently farm it out to a maker in Scotland. For the aforementioned reason, I'd rather avoid that if I can.
Matt Newsome used to be a candidate for that kind of thing, but apparently he's no longer doing any sort of Highland tailoring. As far as I can tell, he's only selling kilt hose and beard care products. And the STM doesn't seem to offer such a service.
Robert MacDonald in Vancouver might be an option. While he doesn't list that service, he does offer an array of bespoke items. Has anyone commissioned a tartan waistcoat from him?
Anybody else you would recommend in the USA or Canada?
