    Exclamation Closeout Kilt Accessories

    A friend of mine owns an online Scottish shop called Highland Warmth. He's a good fellow and this is how he supports his family

    He sells tartan caps*, hats, ties, scarves and other tartan related items made in Scotland.

    He let me know that he has some kilt related items in his "Last Chance Closeout Section" (Crest Badges, Brooch, belt buckles, Kilt carriers, etc). I took a look and they are pretty reasonably priced.

    Please give his site a look


    www.highlandwarmth.com


    * His tartan caps are closing out at $22. If you look at the caps page note the model wearing the Galbraith tartan. He may be recognizable as an Edmond Rostrand quoting member of X marks the Scot.

    Cheers

    Has anyone here used one of those kilt roll carriers? Do they actually keep the kilt neat and wrinkle-free? Looks just the right size for packing on the bike…

    Yes, I have three of them, not the same make but almost identical, and they are a godsend when carrying just one or two kilts. Any more than that and I use a suitcase!

    Thanks, Hamish! I know that you are, of course, the ultimate authority on kilt accessories!

    The Kilter...

    My DW bought me one of the "Kilter" Kilt Carriers for Christmas in 2004, and it is one of the best Christmas gifts I have received! I use it all the time when I go a traveling with my Highland "kit".

    Cheers,

    Todd
