Pros and Cons of Montrose ans Sheriffmuir coatees?

[M. A. C. Newsome]

Ok, thanks. I was thinking that a Sheriffmuir would look great made up in a nice charcoal tweed.

Me, too!









As you can see, I have worn mine to quite a variety of occasions. I really like the look of a velvet sheriffmuir, if one were looking for a doublet to wear mainly to evening events. But my tweed sheriffmuir can also be worn during the day when I feel like being a bit "fancy."

The one thing I would change about mine is replacing the rather plain buttons with something with a bit more character. I'm currently on the lookout for ram's head buttons. :-)

Now come come Chas, you do yourself a disservice, I have seen more fat on a greasy chip. You have the figure of a racing snake compared to me. However I completely agree with the points you make.

You're too kind, Simon. I think that these days I am more built for comfort than for speed!

Although I can be quite nippy over a short distance - say from here to the fridge.

Chas
