    It may just be the mannequin that it is on but it just does not look right, it seems to be hanging too loose as a PC should be a tighter fit. Also the buttons on the front do not look like they are in the right position.

    The ensemble looks suspisciously like a uniform conversion. That is just my observation from the shape of lapels and the trim on the waistcoat.

    Agreed there is too much overlap in the jacket and the buttons are too high and to the side AND you can't see the back

    Different than the one I got.

    I bought a PC from Sportkilt when I was in the LA area last summer, and I think it's quite a bit different from that one. The buttons on the jacket on the website seem to be oddly located...

    The jacket I purchased is pretty good quality. There are no tags declaring the fabric materials, but the claim is that it is wool. There were a couple short sections of "missed" seams on the lining of the jacket, which was disappointing but not too tough to fix. I'm satisfied that I paid a fair price ($150, it was the last of that particular style), but I wouldn't have paid more, I think.

    It does look very odd! They need a better picture. Are the buttons "dangly"? Hmmm...
