Kilt jacket for $25

[bear]

Now that I have your attention with the subject line, here is a photo of a Harris Tweed sportscoat I had cut down to a kilt jacket. The alteration shop just charged me $25 for the work. I got the jacket for free -- it was a thrift store friend of a friend of mine who thought I would like it. I doubt she paid more than $5 for it.

I found a jacket in a thrift store that I have yet to alter. It has pockets sewn on the outside, so the alteration will be vastly less complicated. Or, I could simply remove them.
The problem is that it is a single breasted corderouy jacket and no matter what I wear with it, I'll look like a high school science teacher!
