This is great, and I daresay exactly what I'm looking for. You're right, though, it's certainly not cheap -- I reckon I'll have to save up for awhile.

How's the fit? I see the only sizing selection offered is the chest measurement.

K-A's advertising is liberally laced with "By Appointment to HRM…" so I think that may be what you've seen in pictures of the King without epaulettes, fancy cuffed sleeves, or metal buttons on his jackets:


Later, I added a waistcoat. Although I probably wear an Argyll tweed jacket a bit more often, I'm very fond of this one as well.

I just checked USA Kilts's website and do not find a jacket this simple on offer from them, but I may be visiting them around "Tartan Day" in a few weeks, and I'll try to remember to ask if they ever offer something like it. On their website, the closest I can find is a Braemer jacket and waistcoat, but there's no delete option for either the metal buttons, epaulettes, OR fancy cuffs, and they say it's a stock rack item in the store. But, even with a waistcoat it's more than $200 less expensive than the jacket available at K-A.
