I know of one nicely dressed chicken farmer. Oh wait it is you.

Not Your Average Chicken Farmer indeed!
Very dapper Matt

Matt, you look the perfect country gentleman. Aren't you hot in that outfit? I'm all the way up in New York during a relatively cool summer and the heat and humidity would kill me if I wore something like that in July.

Actually we are enjoying a bit of a cool spell here in the NC mountains. The past severl days the highs have been in the 70s and the lows at night in the 50s. (That's with an "F" not a "C" after the number, for our international brethren). When we took those pictures last night it was probably in the low 70s and I was quite comfortable.

But no, that's not what I typically wear around the yard in July. :-) I got dressed up to take some photos for our web site and my wife snapped a few pictures of me as I was walking over to the coop.

Matt, after reading the thread about traditional kilts for the working class.. I almost expected to see you in a solid color tweed kilt with a shirt and vest.. much like the print you posted...LOL

You are a very dapper gentleman, and I enjoy seeing you dressed out in your kilt wear.. an insperation, thats for sure.

In truth, I have all the elements I need in my closet to create that outfit. Maybe I'll have to get dressed and take some more pictures. Though I don't think my chickens will much appreciate me giving them a bath in our creek...

That, my friend, is an Argyle jacket, with plain (or craill) cuffs, sans epaulettes, made from Harris Tweed.

Bravo !

Still, I think you should give this "Argyle-jacket-with plain(or craill)cuffs-sans-epaulettes" a name off it's own !

I'm sure you can come up with something that strikes the imagination !


Best,

Robert
