Kilt buying guide
Kilt questions, answered
Sizing, cost, delivery, materials and what to wear with a kilt. If your question is not here, contact us and a person will answer it.
Who wears a kilt?
Anyone. Kilts are worn to weddings, formal events, festivals, concerts, games and as everyday clothing, by men, women and children. Around 33 million Americans claim Scottish or Scots-Irish ancestry, but no ancestry is needed to wear one. Every Fashion Kilt piece is cut to the measurements you send, so the same kilts work for anyone.
What is included in a kilt outfit?
A full kilt outfit is the kilt, a shirt, a jacket or waistcoat, a sporran, a kilt belt, kilt hose with flashes, and ghillie brogues. A kilt pin weights the front apron. For formal wear, add a fly plaid fixed with a brooch. Fashion Kilt builds complete kilt outfits on one page, all cut in the same tartan.
What is the difference between a formal kilt and a casual kilt?
A formal kilt is an 8 or 9 yard traditional cut, hand pleated to the pattern, worn with a Prince Charlie or Argyll jacket for weddings and black tie. A casual kilt is a 5 yard cut, lighter and less full, worn with a shirt for everyday and festivals. Both are made to your measurements.
How much does a custom kilt cost?
A custom made kilt at Fashion Kilt starts at $68, and most sit between $68 and $150 depending on the cut and the material. Utility and hybrid kilts sit at the lower end. Leather kilts and formal jackets sit at the top. Every price includes cutting to your own measurements rather than a stock size, so there is no tailoring cost on top.
How do I measure myself for a kilt?
You need three measurements. Waist, taken at the natural waist just above the hip bone where a kilt sits, which is higher than where trousers sit. Hip, taken around the widest point of the seat. Length, taken from that waist line to the middle of the kneecap while standing. Take them over a shirt, keep the tape level, and do not pull it tight.
How long does a made to measure kilt take?
Stocked plaids are cut the day your order is confirmed. Standard production runs 2 to 3 weeks, and rush production in 7 to 10 days is available when your date is already fixed. Shipping time sits on top of that and varies by destination.
What is the difference between plaid and tartan?
They are the same cloth. Plaid is the word most buyers use in the United States and tartan is the older name for the same woven pattern. A tartan is a repeating block of colour running the same sequence in both directions through the cloth. Fashion Kilt stocks 900+ and every one can be cut into any piece in the range.
How many yards of fabric go into a kilt?
A casual kilt uses about 5 yards and a traditional kilt uses 8 to 9 yards. More yardage means deeper pleats, more swing and more weight in the garment. Five yards suits everyday and warm weather wear. Eight or nine yards is the choice for weddings and formal events where the drape matters.
What is the difference between a utility kilt and a traditional kilt?
A traditional kilt is hand pleated to the pattern in plaid cloth and fastens with buckle straps. A utility kilt is cut in 100% cotton with cargo pockets, reinforced stitching and a snap or buckle waist. Traditional is built for formal wear and ceremony. Utility is built for daily wear, work and festivals.
What do you wear with a kilt?
A full kilt outfit is the kilt, a shirt, a waistcoat or jacket, a sporran, a belt, kilt hose with flashes, and ghillie brogues. A kilt pin weights the front apron so it hangs correctly in wind. For formal wear, add a fly plaid over the shoulder fixed with a brooch. Fashion Kilt builds the whole outfit on one page.
Custom kilts for every style, made to your measurements
Fashion Kilt makes custom kilts around the measurements you send us. Choose a traditional 8 yard kilt in one of 900+ tartans, a lighter casual 5 yard kilt, or the wrapped great kilt, each hand pleated from heavyweight cloth with leather straps and buckles.
For everyday wear, utility kilts in cotton add working pockets and a casual fit, while hybrid kilts put tartan pleats on a cotton body. Leather, denim and tactical kilts round out the modern range.
Every kilt is cut and pleated by hand to the waist, hip and length you give us, then finished with the hardware you choose. No size chart, no guessing. Add the accessories and the whole outfit arrives together.
