These are off the peg and I believe are made by House of Edgar.

I am of the opinion that the Grandfather shirt is a better choice for an “alternative kilt shirt”:

I say this for a few reasons. Buttons are...

Gruesome.

John McDermott has a lovely voice, though! I very much recommend his Scottish and Irish folk music albums.

This reminds me of Guinea pigs.

Not pigs, not from Guinea.

Other than that, the description is perfect.

Interesting. They were explained to me in terms of leg compression in the Roman context, for example. Would you expect to see the puttee issued only in sandy climates, or were they a widespread...

I’m stumped as well. Ask the Cheviot people!

I’m looking for recommendations for tartans that are partially or largely yellow in color. So far I’ve found Scrimgeour muted and ancient, loud MacLeod, Old MacMillan, and Buchanan. Any other ideas?

They might be discontinued, and Amazon is just selling previous stock.

I love the Gandalf pipe and kilt in conjunction. Wonderful photo!

Those of you who hike in the cold and snow in a kilt—are the temperatures tolerable for the knees and legs long term? How long are...

McMurdo, you have one of the most stunning highlandwear wardrobes I’ve seen on the web. Well done!

I echo the “equal formality” sentiment. In the highland tradition, a black wool and a burgundy...

Tartan in general will disrupt the silhouette of a person and provide some camouflage if the color scheme matches the outdoor setting. Tartan has been used by New England hunters for a very long time...
