Welcome to a voyage of tradition, fashion and heritage. At SkylarkInfantry, we believe in making clothing that is not just attire — but stories worn. The Tweed Kilt Jacket is our statement of combining Scottish heritage with modern tailoring. If you’re looking for a jacket that is different, has a story, and delivers in the present world — you’ve come to the right place.
Why a Tweed Kilt Jacket?
Tweed’s always been at the forefront of menswear — tough yet sophisticated, traditional yet versatile. With our Tweed Kilt Jacket, it brings:
Classic texture & personality: the woven structure and natural wool fibres of tweed provide the jacket with depth, warmth and rural chic.
Heritage style with urban adaptability: Although it recalls the heritage of Scottish coats, this jacket is cut to meet the demands of city living, relaxed weekends or evening smart wear.
Unique statement with restraint: It stands out without being showy. The shape, material and line quietly but forcefully speak.
Durability: Attention to design and good materials ensure this jacket lasts year after year – a worthwhile investment in your wardrobe.
By owning our Tweed Kilt Jacket, you’re not just buying a garment — you’re adopting an attitude.
The Craft Behind the SkylarkInfantry Tweed Kilt Jacket
Fabric & Material
We begin with premium sheep-wool tweed — naturally insulating, breathable and built for wear. Each yard is selected for durability and hand-feel. The weave gives the jacket its signature texture and ensures it drapes with poise.
The lining is selected for performance and comfort — smooth, breathable and gentle on the skin.
Tailoring & Cut
The silhouette is deliberate: structured shoulders, slightly nipped-in waist and length that pays respect to the “kilt jacket” heritage without being outdated.
We incorporate traditional touches such as lapels or stand-collar variations, deep front pockets for practicality, and discreet detailing (such as horn-style buttons) that are respectful of heritage without going too far.
All seams are reinforced, and we have clean finishes — inside and out — so that whether you button up for dinner or throw it on with jeans, it’s sharp.
Versatility in Styling
One of the greatest benefits of the Tweed Kilt Jacket is the fact that it can be adapted. Some style directions include:
Casual smart: Team the jacket with a crisp white shirt, dark denim and brogues. The tweed texture provides visual interest without overdoing it.
Business-casual: Wear it as a substitute for the formal blazer — for meetings, creative offices, or when you need to make a statement with personality.
Weekend rustic-chic: Layer it over a roll-neck sweater, chinos and boots — ideal for countryside weekends, bracing walks or fashionably relaxed coffee meetups.
Evening edge: Employ it to dress up black jeans or fitted chinos with a thin-fit t-shirt or high-gauge knit. The simplicity of the styling allows the fabric to speak for itself.
How to care for your tweed kilt jacket
Brushing & airing: Gently brush away dirt and dust after wear and allow the jacket to air. Wool will recover naturally after being rested.
Spot cleaning: Clean with a damp cloth on small marks, but no harsh chemicals. For more stubborn stains, leave it to a professional dry cleaner familiar with wool tweeds.
Storage: Place on a wide-shouldered hanger to preserve shape. Store in airy garment bags to avoid moth attack or flattening.
Rotate use: To extend the life of the fabric and the structure, do not wear it every day — allow it rests between wearings.
By honoring the materials and tailoring, your Jacket will wear well, accumulating character and personal patina.
Why SkylarkInfantry – Our Brand Philosophy
At SkylarkInfantry, we are committed to three fundamental promises:
Authenticity: Every piece made with respect for tradition, but engineered for life today.
Quality: We employ high-quality materials and assure expert craftsmanship — so our clothing isn’t disposable but heirloom.
Style with intent: Our garments don’t just look great, they function and respond. We create for actual people, not catwalks.
When you buy our Tweed Kilt Jacket, you’re part of that philosophy — becoming a member of the community of men who appreciate craftsmanship, character and resilience.
Who Is the Tweed Kilt Jacket For?
The gentleman who has an appreciation for fabric, texture and narrative in his closet versus labels.
The career professional who seeks an alternative to the classic blazer — something with personality but no less polish.
The traveler or weekend getaway-goer who requires a jacket for city nights and country strolls.
The fashion-respectful person who spends in fewer, higher-quality pieces instead of pursuing quick trends.
If you view your wardrobe as the total of carefully curated pieces, rather than fleeting seasons, then the Tweed Kilt Jacket is a perfect fit.
Design Inspiration & Heritage
We took inspiration from the classic Scottish kilt jacket and country sports outerwear — both designed to be pleasing to the eye, to withstand the weather and to flow around the wearer. That heritage has determined the length, the design of the pockets, the cut and the employment of tweed itself.
But we didn’t leave it there. We honed the silhouette to fit contemporary proportions, selected lining and finishes to cater to city needs, and designed the jacket to be so versatile it can sit comfortably with formal or casual items. The result is a hybrid: tradition at heart, designed for today.
Fit & Size Advice
When buying the Tweed Kilt Jacket, remember:
Shoulder fit is essential — the jacket must lie flat at the shoulder seam without sagging or pulling.
Torso shape: The jacket has a fitted waist. If you like a loose fit, go up one size or order a custom fit.
Sleeve length: Regular length falls just above the wrist bone when arms are relaxed. If you’re taller or like an extra-long cuff, custom tailoring can accommodate you.
Layering: Since tweed is warm, you can layer safely under it with a good knit or shirt. If heavy layering is in the works (thick sweater + coat), do make allowance for size in order to have room to breathe.
We offer extensive sizing chart information on our website and our customer service team will help answer fit-related questions.
Why Tweed Works in Every Season
Tweed is often described as “wintery” by reputation, but its design actually invites multi-season wear:
The thick wool weave retains warmth during colder months.
Wool fibres have a natural ability to regulate temperature and absorb moisture — therefore it functions in temperate conditions.
The weight and texture make it suitable for transition seasons when an everyday light jacket is insufficient and heavy jacket is excessive.
What this translates to is: you purchase one jacket, and you utilize it over several seasons — a more intelligent wardrobe purchase.
Sustainability & Longevity
We are committed to clothes that endure. Instead of promoting quick turnover, we make for longevity. The tailoring and tweed help the Jacket keep its relevance and remain functional year in and year out.
We also source fabrics and linings with regards to the environment and ethics — selecting suppliers that share our concerns for responsibility and quality. Spending money on an item like the Tweed Kilt Jacket results in fewer replacements, less waste and a more personal wardrobe.
