- Who is the best kilt maker in the world, if there is one?
What is a Royal Warrant?
When you hear names like Kinloch Anderson or Gordon Nicolson, what comes to mind?
How can you tell high quality kilts from inferior impostors?

Having a bespoke kilt made by a small or independent Scottish kilt maker is beyond quality, it's a legacy, treasure, and if measured correctly, knowing you have the optimum fit. Also particularly rewarding to know you have gone directly to support these wonderful, highly skilled kilt makers.
Same goes for USA kilts.
Have you ever thought of doing a fashion show video of your different kilts and jackets sweaters accessories? 🤠
Best kiltmaker for my money is USA Kilts! But then, I'm biased. Not wrong, mind you; but definitely biased! :)
I'm impressed and very pleased with mine.
Thanks for your support!
I bought a great kilt from'em
Spilt coffee on it by accident
Didn't even stain
Top quality stuff right there
I have a USAK Premier in Hamilton Red Modern 16oz made by Mac that is delightful. It is better built than my Scottish made Hamilton Hunting 16oz. They cost about the same (plus import duty on the Scottish one) & the fabrics are from the same mill.
I wear the red one more often by choice.
There is a Lady Chrystal from France who I think is one of the best kilt makers.
Now I will say this. I have yet to get a custom-made kilt but I look forward to it once I am able to get my family Tartan is registered. But, I have found that whether they are TV, advertised, or X higher that sizing can be inconsistent. And this can be a little frustrating, to have the inside flap stop at the middle of your left knee and you have all the straps on the middle hole. But then you order another coat from the same place and it’s over a little further even. Then I’ve ordered the exact same size kilt from someone else and it’s total diameter is different. So we’re one kilt will fit perfect in the middle hole the other Hass to be even wider or looser. Very inconsistent. And I think some X higher kilts are either labeled wrong and sizing sometimes or maybe if it’s the last one they have and somebody really needs it they may alter it.
Do people really need to ask that question on this form? We already know who the best kilt maker in the world is.
Pshawwww!!!!!
I have a question!
Has the Isle of Skye tartan become the the new Black Watch? It seems to be popping up as rental material more and more frequently.
I recently dropped Facebook and other social media (too angry out there), so I hope you see this question. Thanks!
It's definitely becoming more popular, but I wouldn't go that far.
We will add it to our list of questions! Thanks for watching, Kendo_shane!
From one tartan mill to the next can tartan thread counts slightly increase or decrease in proportion to the rest of its sett and the tartan is not different enough to the point that it is a completely different tartan?
I don't doubt the quality of kilts made by USA Kilts. The proof comes from the customers themselves. I have never purchased a kilt from them, but I have purchased many accessories from USA Kilts. Great people to do business with.
I purchased my first two kilts from another U.S.-based company long before I knew of USA Kilts. The kilts are wonderful. The other eight kilts I own were made by a wonderful kiltmaker in Glasgow. Perfectly crafted hand-stitched kilts. It came down to cost, for me. The kilts I have made in Glasgow cost less, even with shipping, than I can get from any company in the U.S. On top of that, I can order the kilt and be wearing it within two weeks, max. Paying less for a 8-yard, 16oz, worsted wool kilt and not sacrificing quality means a lot.
Wellbsaid.
The best kilt maker wouldn't make a difference if the fabric is bad quality.
completely agree,the maker may be good,but he can't do miracles with bad clothes
Can't be the best kiltmaker if one uses bad quality fabric!
@@richarddaugherty8583 yeah
Are you contemplating issuing a warrant of your own to All American Clothing?
I'm sure that warrnts issued by the Royal Family are more important here (UK) than in America, just imagine if the President issued such endorsements, surely that would be of value to American manufacturers?
Surcharge for the prestige of their name
USA kilts is by far the best kilt makers in the entire world and no one is gonna tell me otherwise.
Be careful with "Scottish Made" kilts... some may be ropey ex hires brought into Scotland from Pakistan and sold on, rather than one from a genuine Scottish Kiltmaker who has sourced the wool and sewn, basted, stitched it themselves. The higher the price, the better the quality, and vintage ones are good to find on ebay etc...
I think Mac is the best kilt maker. And I gave proof.
i have a question given how expensive kilts are and only a scottish person can answer this .Where do the thousands of kilted scottish supporters in football and rugby get there kilts ,especially football where the supporters are mainly working class ,how can so many afford to be kilted.Are they hired bought are they cheap
It's our tradition I been wearing the kilt all my life and it natural for us working class scots to build our collection in our lifetimes I'm in my sixties now got full wardrobe now
@@johncooper3 thank you for your answer it makes sense
I was watching usa kilts I interested in buying 1 for my collection I seen your question thanks for fast reply I have been purchasing recently and the prices are so cheap here in scotland at the moment it the time to buy check out heritage of scotland website they ship worldwide man thank you for your time
I used to be able to find ex-military secondhand or military surplus kilts in many Scottish secondhand shops, and they'd be dead cheap. That supply may have dried up a bit, with so many infantry battalions disbanded/amalgamated, but there have got to be lots of used kilts flying around Scotland, available at bargain prices. That might be one source. The newer, cheaper "casual" kilt styles may provide more.
This is like the "the other end" of Pakistani kilts, you must be aware of what you're paying for.
