FULL 8 YARD KILTS
|
The standard kilt, and epitome of
Highland Dress for the gentleman. Knife pleated, either to sett or stripe,
in the tartan of your choosing. All tailoring is done completely by hand.
These kilts are made in Scotland, from 100% worsted wool kilting cloth.
The prices below are accurate for
most tartans. We always recommend purchasing the heaviest available
weight that is within your budget. We can have your kilt made in just
about any tartan! If you don't see it, just ask us. We can
usually find it for you.
To place your order begin by
selecting which weight range you desire. Please pay attention to the
available tartans shown in your chosen weight range. Indicate the
tartan you desire in the order blank, and order according to the size range of
your waist or hips (whichever is larger). To complete the order, we will
need to know your waist, hip, and length measurements, taken according to the
instructions at the bottom of this page.
Once your order request is received
by us, we will contact you by phone or email to confirm the tartan availability,
your measurements, and pleating preference. Please feel free to call us to discuss the specifics of your kilt so that
we can quote you an exact price.
Please allow 8 to 12 weeks for delivery. Rush delivery may be available at
an additional cost, dependant upon cloth availability.

To complete your order, we will need the following information from you:
-
 Your desired tartan -- this is most
important!
-
The style of kilt you are choosing
-
The desired weight of your cloth
-
Your waist measurement, taken at
your natural waist (just above your naval), snug
-
Your hip measurement, taken at the
widest part of your seat, loose
-
The length of your kilt. Have
someone else measure down the side of your hip from 2" above your natural waist (where
you took the first measurement) down to the top of your kneecap. You may
add or subtract about an inch, if you prefer a longer or shorter kilt, but
stay within this range.
-
Double take all measurements. We
will have your kilt made to the measurements you provide. We cannot be
responsible if the measurements you give us are not correct.
-
Give us your height and weight.
This helps in double-checking your measurements.
-
Do you want your kilt pleated to
sett or stripe? Pleating to the sett is most common today, and means the
pattern of the tartan is reproduced in the pleats. Pleating to stripe, also
called pleating to the line, or regimental pleating, is common in the military
and pipe bands, but also looks good for civilian use. This is where a
particular stripe from your tartan is centered on each pleat. Depending on
what stripe is chosen, this can have different effects. Normally, we can pleat
your kilt to whatever stripe you specify.
-
Do you have a deadline? Kilts
normally take 8 to 12 weeks to have made and delivered. Sometimes this can be
longer if the cloth is out of stock, but you will be notified. We can
sometimes deliver sooner than this, granted that cloth is in stock. A
rush fee of $75 will apply.
Of course, if you have any other
questions, you are welcome to contact us. The staff of the Scottish Tartans
Museum gift shop is happy to answer any questions about your kilt.
