    Kilt Luggage

    Greetings all .

    I was browsing around on the internet and just happened onto a site that sells garment bags specifically designed for carrying up to three kilt outfits .

    I had not seen these before , so I thought I would share the info with the rabble .

    Thanks for the link Mike. With two extra hangers and shipping my total would be $176.00. Not a bad price for protection for a couple of thousand dollars of kilts and kit.

    I own a Kilt Kit and LOVE IT! Carry most anything in there. I'm usually driving to travel but its really easy at hotels for the bell hop to handle and hang from the luggage cart. Think I've carried FOUR kilts in there at once. I love the kilt hangers and use them for ALL my wool kilts (Kathy Lare hand sewns and USA Kilts wool) and all four of my leather RKilts, and my kilt jackets and Prince Charlie. I love 'em! I've bought about 20 because my kilts are worth it and the hangers are quality made - value over the long haul.

    The owner, Joe, is a cool guy...he's at many games. Never had a problem with the goods.



    Quality of the hangers and Kilt Kit are top notch.



    I really like the embroidered name...no one's gonna "borrow" it.

    All those pockets for sporrans and shoes and the belt hangers really work.

    This is one product, okay two products....that I'm really sold on. Well made by a great guy. If you decide to buy you'll be pleased.

    Ooops! Okay, now see my review thread was posted...didn't realize that was it...have used my Kilt Kit a lot since then and I'm still well sold on it.

    Riverkilt ,

    Great review of the Kilt Kit ! I was thinking of buying them not only for travel but also for storage of all my kit . Do you use them in that manner ?

    Best , Mike

    Thanks. No, I don't use the Kilt Kit for storage...closet's too small and only have the one Kilt Kit. Have 39 kilts left so store the wool kilts in those cheapo big box suit hanger bags. Use a Sharpie to write the kilt's tartan on the outside edge of the hanger bag. Makes it easy to figure out what's inside when they're hanging in a row.

    I don't hang my PV or leather kilts in a hanger bag. No moth danger for them.

    I have one and love it as well. Be sure to get a couple of hangers if you get the bag. It is quite durable and as far as a highland attire hanging bag is concerned, I have never seen one that is nicer. The only debate is if a kilt roll or a hanging bag protects the pleats better but that is a separate discussion.

    Just curious if anyone has the either of the kilt bags from forum sponsor Buy-a-Kilt. I don't yet, but was looking at options.

    The Outfitter: http://buyakilt.com/the-outfitter-kilt-carrier
    Kilt Carrier with Roll: http://buyakilt.com/kilt-carrier-kilt-roll-set

    The second one is a garment bag that has a clip-in roll. Best of both worlds I guess.
