Thanks to Alan, I'm now $40.00 lighter and awaiting the arrival of an Eton jacket. This question is about the "little chain thing" (technical term) that holds the lapels of the jacket together. Where do you find those? In browesing web sites I notice that the PC's do not seem to use them but the Irish jackets do. So if going with a Scottish Tartan is this not a needed accessory? If you do / don't wear a vest, is it needed?
