Names for kilt jackets

[Jock Scot]

In my experiance,tailors have always been a law unto themselves and I rather think that getting them to come up with a standard set of names for the various styles of jacket might be asking too much.It would be helpful though!I have always been led to believe,perhaps wrongly,that the original Argyll style of jacket was a West Highland cut of coat whilst the original Braemar style was an Eastern Highland cut.I well remember,in my youth, going to see a tailor(sadly long gone) in Fort William to see about having a Braemar jacket made and being told,by him, in no uncertain terms that I was to have an Argyll jacket or not at all.
