What is a kilt?

The kilt is one of the most iconic fashion pieces to come out of Scotland. Effectively, a kilt is like a skirt made for men. Traditionally made from tartan fabric, kilts date back to the 16th-century when they were first worn by Highlanders. British military used the kilt as a formal uniform, but it wasn’t until the 18th-century when tartan cloth was introduced to create the tartan kilt we know today. Fast forward to the nineteenth century, and the traditional scottish kilt had become part of a ceremonial dress and worn only during special occasions and formal events like weddings, sports events and events concerning the Royal Family. Wherever you are in the world, you will no doubt have seen an image of a man wearing a kilt, and instantly associate it with Scotland. It’s as important to the country’s image and culture as its flag or Scottish shortbread - but times are changing.

How to look after a genuine leather kilt?

If you’re thinking about buying a Geniune Leather Kilt, then it’s important that you know how to look after your new product. Indeed, a kilt should be considered an investment, so keeping it in good condition is a priority so that you can wear it time and time again.

First, try not to wash your kilt, as you’ll remove the natural oils from the leather and cause the finish to look dry or faded. Instead, use a leather cleaner, and regularly apply wax-free moisturizers to the kilt to ensure it remains supple. Finally, try to avoid plastic and use a cotton bag to store your kilt, as this will protect it and stop the leather’s colors from rubbing or causing other damaging issues.
