Designer Kilts
Buying Designer kilts from Edinburgh
There are established kilt shops selling the traditional kilt and trimmings in all the big Scottish cities but the most original designs come from Howie Nicholsby's 21st Century Kilts in Edinburgh. [1]
Nicholsby wants to modernise the highland skirt and his most noticeable innovation is the kilt suit, available in pinstripe, charcoal or plain black. Result: a minimal look a million miles from the traditional tartan world of the White Heather Club.
He also offers a range of furry animal sporrans to brighten up your outfit.
