Nanook thanks for the photo essay on ill fitting garb.
You are quite right none of the Argylle jackets you show fit properly, however the style of them is slightly different, for example the first picture shows the sleves with the Prince Charlie style cuff, whereas the rest do not, the third picture down is with a vest and the rest are not, you assume that the fabric is from the same mill, you can not possibly know that from the photos.
I do agree with you that the last photo is quite sharp and I would be proud to wear that outfit.
I suppose that with buying from an online supplier you never know what you are going to get, you could even receive a cheap offshore knock off, when you are expecting the real thing, so as always buyer beware.
