Christopher may go to Gran Canaria in his pink Skilt
A few days ago a chap called Christopher enquired about the possibility of making a pink Skilt for his holiday in Gran Canaria. Absolutely we can.
Christopher, if you are reading this now my emails are being returned from the address you provided. Can you please get back in touch with me: richard@skilt.co.uk?
Michal has bin ein Berliner in his Skilt
As I promised – few pics in my fantastic Skilt 🙂 I’ve been on FOLSOM in Berlin in this kilt and people reacted very well… Three or four people openly asked for producer and of course I sent them to your website.
25th I will wear it during gala concert of International Chopin Piano Competition. It will be in Wrocław… I think it will be a reason for gossips :)) I love (S)kilts ;))
With all the best…

Jonathan is edgy in his biker Skilt
Hi Richard.
I just thought you might like to see the effect of ‘those edges’ in a nightclub setting!!
Like something JPG could have designed for Fifth Element!!
Best wishes from Sitges.

Tim is enthusiastic in his Skilt
Stoked to receive this comment from a customer who describes himself as ‘very satisfied’. Thanks Tim.
After several centuries of brainwashing to the contrary, ordinary men throughout the western world are beginning to realise that the wearing of skirt type garments is practical, logical, and extremely comfortable. So why the hell not do it?
And if it’s a skirt type garment you’re after that looks great on a bloke – you’ve come to the right place! This wide selection of exquisitely tailored ‘skilts’ is, I reckon, about the best in the world. Each pleat is individually cut to a broad flare and sewn so the whole thing hangs beautifully from your waist. What you see in the pictures is what you get.I bought three:DENIM – rough and tough as any pair of Levis I ever wore to work (but with the added advantage it will never wear out at the knees or pockets)
CORDUROY – same as above, but softer and cosy warm. If you’re off on a days hike down on the coast with your lunch and a hip flask you’d be an absolute idiot not to don one of these!
BLACK FLOCK – if you think this one LOOKS stunning…you should FEEL what it’s like to wear. BLOODY HELL!! I guarantee you will never, EVER, want to take it off!
Dave has a nice cup of tea in his new kitty Skilt
And a toe curling brew it looks to be too. Check out all the old school exercise equipment in the background. It turns out that Dave runs the London Longsword Academy. So if you ever need to take revenge against a six fingered man … you know where to go for training.
Nick wears his kilt every day for Movember
As you probably know Movember is the mens’ health charity. All around the world men, most of whom are usually clean shaven, grow a moustache from scratch during the month of November in order to raise awareness and cash.
Multiple Skilt owner Nick FfFoulkes has gone one better. In addition to growing the tache, he is wearing a Skilt every day as he works as a kitchen fitter. He’s not wearing a plain Skilt either … but one with kitties on it (ahh!)
Please show your support for mens’ health and Nick by sponsoring him here.
Nice one Nick!
Kristian and friends hit Nice in their Skilts
Richard,
Loving the kilts! The most comfortable thing i’ve ever worn! About to hit Nice and spread the word (i’m in the steampunk on right)! Hope to do a custom one in collaboration with Tom Baker http://tombakerlondon.com/ (NOT Ted)
Kind regards
Kristian

Greg rocks Paris in his black cord Skilt
According to Greg though Paris may be regarded by many as the fashion capital of the world Parisiens are not so confident when it comes to wearing what they design. “You’ve got London for that” he says. Greg’s just been back to pick out his second Skilt: another black one but with fire insert pleats. We are sure he’ll set Paris alight.

Why have hamburgers in Hamburg when you can have Mexican at El Pikosito?
Olympic Madness – Lee Thompson flys his Skilt at the closing ceremony
What an honour to see Lee Thompson, the saxophonist from Madness, in his St George Cross kilt at the Olympic closing ceremony last night. Looks like the Englishness may have been an issue though as a couple of small Union Flags had been stitched onto the front. Wish we’d had the opportunity to provide him with a Union Flag kilt instead. Hopefully the George Cross one will be returned to its full glory for future gigs.

Satisfied customer: Jaakko from Finland plays mandolin in his Skilt
The kilt was made using some of our last grey flannel fabric and features a panel of Dashing Tweed at the back.
The instrument is an octave mandolin a.k.a. short scale bouzouki.

Satisfied customer: Willem from the Netherlands is loving the reactions to his new Skilt
On 15 September 2011 we were delighted to receive this poetic note of thanks from Willem in the Netherlands:
Silence comes most of the time, when something hits you.!!!!
This afternoon, the mail man was ringing at the doorbell. He delivered a parcel. It’s the brown big safari cat-kilt.
The way the parcel was delivered, is more than a royal treatment.
This kilt was wrapped in a special cloth- container, where it is stored away, dust and light-free.
Then I changed kilt, and was so thrilled, I went to the village- center for shopping.
There were more than 8 reactions from men and women, and all of them were very positive.
This safari-Kilt is a very new part in my KILT-Wearing, comfortable, beautiful Flock-print, soft cloth and a very comfortable way of wearing.
It fits and feels better, than a suit.( Sorry to say, gentlemen)
No doubt about it, want quality ? BUY SKILTS.!!!!
With kind regards,
W,Jansen, The Netherlands.

Steph and Chris’s Wedding Skilt
Want a wedding kilt? We can provide something special for the groom or a co-ordinated look for the whole wedding party. I really like the way that Chris has pimped his Skilt out with traditional jacket, shoes and pulled up socks to create this more formal look:
Satisfied customer: Stephen thinks his army Skilt is brilliant
Richard
All I can say is fantastic. Fit is great, wife is impressed, daughter likes, the whole thing is brilliant. Was planing for the first outing to be the Army v Navy game in May but now looking for any excuse to be able to wear it.
I will get the wife to take some photos soon, she wants to put them on her Facebook, and I will send them to you. A few colleagues have shown interest, so now I have mine, I will be taking in to work to show them.
Once again thank you and a fantastic job.
Stephen
