Harris Tweed Inverness Cape

[Panache]

Matt,

Fantastic! Just Fantastic!

The way Kevin builds things I hope you have at least one grand child with your height to give it to when you don't need it anymore.

Asurredly, you jest! All Matt's things are going to wind up in the collection of a museum!

Beauty Matt. Great choice of fabric.

For those who might be jonesing for a similar Inverness in tweed check out http://twinrosesdesigns.com . I ordered a custom made from them a couple months ago but it came two days before we left for our scotland trip so I didn't get to try it out much, and has been in the closet since, until it got packed for the move to Louisville. Once I get settled into my new house I will pop a couple pictures and post them. But you can see one identical to mine on their website, and my custom only cost about $400, while some they may have in stock are as low as $250. It is listed under cloaks and wraps, then under wool cloaks, as a Dickensian or Inverness style cloak. I can't remember who but someone else here bought one off the rack after we discussed it in another thread. Nice heavywieght cloth---custom built--options galore for closures, fabrics, etc..... and very good turnaround time.

Oh, a very nice I-cape Matt and Kevin!

What a handsome cape! Well done-how fortunate for you Matthew!!

That's a superb example of an Inverness cape. Just perfect for a stroll through the heather.

We will have to do a "Show us your Inverness capes" thread in a few months (and when you and Glen get your deerstalker hats! )

I've been wondering if a tweed Deerstalker hat would go with the Black Inverness, I've also been wondering if there are any gas street lamps left I think it would make a wonderful photo op.

I think you could probably find some in either Vancouver or Quebec City.
