20M American of Scottish ancestry. I’ve done a little bit of research, but I’m unsure how to approach it. I know that I’d like to wear a traditional style, and I’d prefer to wear a tartan that I’m somewhat related to. I’ve got Bruce, Clark, and Wallace blood, at least far as I can tell. I’d also love some advice on places to buy and best practices.
Physically, I’m 5’10”, somewhat broadly built, and about 175 lbs. In good shape, too.
I haven’t received my sporran, buckle or broach yet, but I was too excited and had to share. I’ll be looking for help in the future with other purchases. Hope this subreddit is cool and can help me.
Took my dog out for a morning 4th of July walk. It is going to be hot one today.
I wore this yesterday morning it’s a 4 yard box pleated kilt. I find in the extreme heat we’ve been experiencing that the yardage not the wool weight is important. Even so it was very hot in this even in the morning. I suppose not wearing the belt could help, most times I don’t wear one as they are superfluous but do wear a belt on occasion.
Is £4400 expensive for whole package all made to measure kilt? I’ve seen prices all over the place on here, so I’m curious what people generally consider “normal” for a high-quality bespoke outfit.
Sharing some tartan swatches purchased from USA Kilts website. All 13 oz wool from Strathmore. Shipped to Southeast Asia using Shipping Cart for a reasonable price, under 20 USD.
Whenever I wear a kilt, I like to walk around with some swatches in my sporran to give more depth to conversation.
I am a Marine Corps Veteran & Air Force veteran.
Hello there happy kilted goth here coming to ya from torrance
Seeing if I can get comfortable making this a regular item in my wardrobe. Any advice on styling would be appreciated friends
About 6 months ago, I created a weaving draft for my EMS tartan: Brothers and Sisters of Paramedicine. Is there anyone here who is interested in weaving it royalty free?; The Brothers and Sisters of Paramedicine tartan was created to honor all EMS personnel.
The tartan was created at treadl.com. In the tartan's description, the thread count, color scheme, and hex color codes are listed. It is intended to be a universal EMS tartan. Being a former EMT when I designed the Brothers and Sisters of Paramedicine tartan, I only want name recognition in exchange.
Visit the draft and leave a critique on the pattern.

Hi there,
Hoping this reaches the right person. I’m looking to get some flashes for a present in my family’s tartan. Does anyone know where I can get these in Edinburgh ? Ideally not breaking the bank as well! Appreciate the help
So I finally had some time to take some photos of me in the kilts that I received yesterday. I would love to hear some critiques from you guys if you see that k have done something wrong!
In SNW S3E10 Scotty shows up to the captain's reception in full dress kilt. Does anyone know what (if any) specific clan tartan he was wearing? I would assume that, since the actor portraying Scotty is himself (for once) Scottish, it's the actor's own.
Hired kilt from House Of Argyll near Loch Lomond. Fantastic quality kilts. My sporran was bought there 26 years ago and still going strong.
