Irish Formal Kilts

Irish kilts and Irish tartans are fairly recent modern inventions, but are no less important as a way of celebrating your Irish heratage. Irish kilts are becoming increasingly popular, and it's no wonder - everyone agrees that a good lookin' Irishman looks even better in a kilt!

Hand–stitched pleats and lots of attention to detail make these the finest kilts available. Made with at least 8 yds of Tartan and constructed to last a lifetime. Our formal kilts are made to order in Scotland, so please allow 8-12 weeks for delivery. Please contact us if you have any questions or would like more information. Whether you are a first time kilt buyer or a seasoned Scot, we are here to help.

Premium Wool Irish Formal Kilts

Made from 100% pure new wool tartan, woven and made in Scotland. We use three different weavers/kiltmakers, depending on tartan availability: Strathmore, Lochcarron, and House of Edgar.

Light Weight Premium Wool Formal Kilt
KF011 – $525
Made from light weight 10/11oz premium wool tartan. Light weight wool makes a good kilt, and the light weight is especially nice for hot weather wear. In general though, if your tartan is available, we recommend a medium weight kilt. Made to order in Scotland with 8-9 yards of tartan. Pleat to sett or stripe (if possible).
NOTE � Most light weight Irish tartans are not woven with a kilting selvedge, so kilts will be hemmed. (It still looks great though. You won't know the difference).
Special order. Please allow 8-12 weeks for delivery. Hip sizes 46+ add $35.

Measuring Instructions:

(1) Measure comfortably around your middle, at your navel (belly button). This is your kilt waist. If you have a bit more around the middle than you might like to have (like I do), you may want to measure a little higher than the navel to get over the crest of the "beer gut". The higher waist will help your kilt stay up where it belongs.

(2) Measure around your hips at the fullest point (usually 6-8 inches below the kilt waist).

(3) Measure from your kilt waist to about the middle of the knee. Have someone help you. If you bend even a little while trying to do it yourself, the measurement will change.

(4) Your height.
