What Prince Charlie Black Jacket is
Prince Charlie Black Jacket is a jacket or waistcoat product for evening Highland dress and formal weddings. It is not a kilt. Kilt waist and jacket chest are different measurements. Look at the photos for button count, lapel shape, cuff and whether a waistcoat is included. If the title does not say waistcoat or vest, do not assume a matching vest is in the box.
Cloth and finish on Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Prince Charlie Black Jacket is finished as shown: the finish shown in the photos, with no fibre named on the listing, with the finish shown in the photos. Inspect braid, buttons and collar points in the gallery. Loose braid or a mismatched button colour is something to question before you order, not something to discover on the morning of a wedding.
How to size Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Do not size Prince Charlie Black Jacket from your kilt waist. Measure the chest at the fullest part, the waist at the natural waist, the shoulder seam to seam if someone can help, and the sleeve from shoulder point to the wrist you want. Stand straight. If you are between sizes, do not force a smaller chest. A jacket that locks at the button will not look formal. It will look too small.
Fit limits for Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Honest limit: Prince Charlie Black Jacket follows the cut in the photos. We cannot turn an Argyle day jacket into a Prince Charlie evening jacket by changing buttons. Alterations after delivery may be possible locally, but a change of mind is not a return. Damage, a defect, or the wrong garment is the 15-day conversation, with photos, to support@hotlocksmith.com.
Care and storage for Prince Charlie Black Jacket
After wear, air Prince Charlie Black Jacket on a wide hanger. Brush wool and tweed. Do not soak braid. Steam lightly if you must, and keep the iron off braid, buttons and leather. Store in a breathable cover, not a damp plastic sack. Moth risk is higher in wool. A cool cupboard beats a hot loft.
Ordering Prince Charlie Black Jacket
For a wedding or a band date, order Prince Charlie Black Jacket with time to spare. Several working days of making plus up to a fortnight in transit is a normal window, and busy weeks run longer. You will get an email at order and another at dispatch when we have handed the parcel over. Check the address first.
More on What Prince Charlie Black Jacket is
Buyers choose Prince Charlie Black Jacket for evening Highland dress and formal weddings. Treat the title as the spec for cloth and for any waistcoat. A Prince Charlie cut, an Argyle day jacket, a tweed jacket, a doublet and a smoking jacket are not interchangeable. Pick the cut your event asked for, then match size to your body, not to your kilt size.
More on Cloth and finish on Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Confirmed cloth for Prince Charlie Black Jacket is the finish shown in the photos, with no fibre named on the listing. Buttons, braid and lining should match the photos. We will not claim a wool weight that is not written down. If you need a heavier barathea or a specific tweed, ask and wait for the answer. Screen colour is not a dye lot.
More on How to size Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Sizing Prince Charlie Black Jacket starts with the chest, then the waist, then the sleeve. Write the numbers down and compare them with the size options on this page. If made to order is offered, send those measurements in the order note. A waistcoat should be measured on the waist and the torso length, not guessed from the jacket label alone.
More on Fit limits for Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Prince Charlie Black Jacket should button without horizontal pull across the chest and without a collar that stands away from the neck. Sleeves should show a small amount of shirt cuff if you are wearing a formal shirt. We do not promise a couture fit from a photo. If you are hard to fit in standard sizes, ask about made to order before you buy a stock size and hope for alterations.
More on Care and storage for Prince Charlie Black Jacket
Care for Prince Charlie Black Jacket follows the finish shown in the photos, with no fibre named on the listing. Spot-clean only when you know the fibre. Dry heat cracks some trims. If the jacket was rained on, dry it at room temperature, shaped on a hanger, away from a radiator. Then brush. Do not pack it wet into a kilt bag.
More on Ordering Prince Charlie Black Jacket

Questions buyers ask
How do I care for Prince Charlie Black Jacket?
Hang it on a wide hanger, air it, and brush wool or tweed. Keep irons and steam off braid and buttons. Do not store it damp.
What if Prince Charlie Black Jacket is damaged?
Email support@hotlocksmith.com within 15 days of delivery with the order number and photos. Change of mind and ordinary size mistakes are not refund reasons.
Can Prince Charlie Black Jacket be made to order?
Send chest, waist, shoulder and sleeve if the listing offers made to order. If it does not, ask before you pay. Custom work is not a change-of-mind return.
Is shipping free on Prince Charlie Black Jacket?
Free shipping applies on orders over $199 when checkout shows the offer. Duty and tax at the border are the buyer’s cost.
Will Prince Charlie Black Jacket match my kilt?
Match the formality, not the waist number. A formal kilt wants a formal jacket. Measure the jacket on its own. Colour should be checked against the photos in daylight as far as a screen allows.
What are the limits of Prince Charlie Black Jacket?
We do not convert one jacket style into another after the fact. Screen colour can differ from the cloth. Dress rules for your band or wedding are yours to confirm.
How do I size Prince Charlie Black Jacket?
Measure the chest at the fullest part, then the waist, shoulder and sleeve. Do not copy your kilt waist onto the jacket. If you are between sizes, do not force the smaller chest.
Does Prince Charlie Black Jacket include a waistcoat?
Only if the title says waistcoat or vest. Photos also show the button layout. If you cannot see a waistcoat and the title is silent, it is not included.
What cloth is Prince Charlie Black Jacket?
The confirmed cloth is the finish shown in the photos, with no fibre named on the listing. We do not add a wool weight that is not written on the listing. Ask if you need a specific ounce.
How long does Prince Charlie Black Jacket take?
Allow several working days if the piece is made to order, then often 10 to 15 working days after dispatch for international delivery. Order earlier for a fixed wedding date.
