    I can't see the pictures in the first post, not even a link, but I can see the pictures in following posts. Any advice?

    'Have one quite similar to the first post, including colour and wool texture (great photo, btw). However, it has a number of square, silver-hue metal buttoms, 3 per cuff, one in front, 3 each (pointed, scalloped) pocket flap, one small on each shoulder strap.

    A bit more busy and gaudy than personally preferred (now), but there was at-event enthusiasm which makes those bits self-inflicted wounds, no sympathy there for.

    Sorry, no maker's name or even size, on it. Thought is, the vendor has a tailor who makes them.

    Ordered at / paid for, bespoke-to-measure, Chicago highland festival 2013 from a vendor with tent and bunch of pipes-oriented stuff, link is below.

    The more I keep going back to look at that pointed cuff tweed kilt jacket, the more I like it!

    Upon reflection, and further inspection of the seller's photos, I think we may have a tweed Kilkenny jacket here. Previously, I've only seen such jackets offered in barathea, either green or black. Judging by the Hibernian surname of the monogram on the jacket in question, Mike O'Byrne, it is a reasonable guess that it was intended to reflect an Irish spin on kilted attire, no?
