| Kilts |
 |
Our Kilts are manufactured using
tailoring skills that
are the bench mark for quality.
For example, we insist on pressing all of our kilts at
various stages of there manufacture, to help create
the shape which will ensure that the kilt will hang
well when worn. We press and shape the Canvas prior to
stitching it to the kilt, this technique ensures that
the Canvas is pre- shrunk prior
to fitting to the kilt.
If this technique is not done before fitting
the Canvas to the kilt , the kilt may take on an odd
shape as the canvas will shrink and may twist and
distort the shape of the kilt. The rule of thumb is,
make the canvas fit the kilt and not the kilt fit the
canvas.

There are 2 styles of pleating to choose from when having
a kilt made.
The 1st is pleating to the Sett or
pattern. This Style shows
the pattern of the tartan being copied in the
formation of the pleated area of the kilt.

The 2nd is pleating to the Stripe or Line, some times
known as Military pleating. This style is favoured
by the Scottish Army Regiments and by some
Pipe Bands, as it ensures uniformity.

Most kilts are pleated using the Knife pleat style of
tailoring, however some kilts are manufactured using
the Box pleat style of tailoring, which has an
additional manufacturing time of 4 hours
approximately.
