Suits Jackets With Kilts

[Cirthalion]

Don't do it.

For the love of God, don't do it.

As has been said; don't do it. You should be able to find both a store selling inexpensive tweed sports coats, and a good tailor in the NYC area. Buy a tweed sports coat, and have it shortened. Remember to wear the kilt when you bring the coat to the tailor so he can mark the coat so it doesn't hang over the pleats.
