Perfect for Grant, looks as if your arms are secured behind you!

"The Saltire Straightjacket". . . for all those who have gone crazy trying to follow The Rules of Kilting. . .

I like this myself:

With a solid color kilt perhaps?

Wear this and the crowd won't see you, which defeats the power of the kilt.

How about this one for Santas Kona, Wally and Joly?

and this one for some of "us chaps across the Pond", as Jock says:

I agree with skauwt. I feel like I should be sitting in the jockey club in Bay Meadows or Hollywood Park watching those different waistcoats flashing by as they head for the finish line.

And if kilted would the jockeys be riding side-saddle? I'd agree that the Saltire waistcoat does indeed look more as a jockey shirt than a flag waistcoat.

this might sound odd ........but........... i know its illegal to burn or cut a stars and stripe flag ,so what happens when a tailor starts snipping away to make a waistcoat/vest
in some aspect aren't they breaking the law (sorry for the random thought its just something that crossed my mind)
