interesting doublet

[MacMillan of Rathdown]

It's a Montrose, with the outer flap buttoned back.

I wonder- what I thought were snaps are probably clear buttons- I see a button hole on the flap that might be a "blind" one- not showing on the front. That bottom closure would likely end up under a belt and thus would not need a silver button. Aren't there some belt hangers peeking out at the sides? I agree that less fabric is probably more comfortable... Thanks for showing us this interesting doublet

Quite right - takes a second or two, but one can easily tell that the doublet is indeed a Montrose. A wee bit confusing at first glance I admit!
