Once upon a time Kevin Kenny of Empire Canvas was making kilt length shooting jackets for us to sell in our gift shop. They were never quite as popular as I had hoped. We offered them from Harris tweed, they were really well made, and quite a unique item. Alas, he's not able to offer them any longer, but perhaps if you know someone handy with a sewing machine, they can serve as a source of inspiration.

Here's mine:


Another observation, if I may -- if you are looking for something more dressed down than a normal tweed kilt day jacket, I'd say wear any kind of jacket you like. Who cares if it is specially made for the kilt or not? If it's that casual, I wouldn't think it mattered all that much how it was cut, if it was "too long", etc. If it's warm and functional, it's good enough!

On cold mornings at some of the fall Highland Games around here I've seen people in their Barbour jackets, Carhart jackets, windbreakers, Ike jackets, some hip length, some waist length, some with hoods, some without -- in other words, just about anything they had at hand. The point was to be warm, and whatever they had in their closet worked.
