Traditional kilt / jacket fitting pop-up in London
From March 10th-18th, our friends at MacGregor and MacDuff are bringing an exclusive, authentic Scottish kilt fitting experience to the heart of London. There’s no need for grooms, groomsmen or gents looking for a jacket to go with their bespoke Skilts to travel to North of the border as they are bringing this exclusive service direct to your doorstep at their Shoreditch pop-up.
Check it out. If you go please let them know Skilt sent you. You may even get a bit of a discount.
Noel is “always a Fusilier” his Royal Regiment of Fusiliers Skilt
The Royal Fusiliers were originally formed from two companies of the Tower of London guard, and called the Ordnance Regiment. Most regiments were equipped with matchlock muskets at the time, but the Ordnance Regiment were armed with flintlock fusils. This was because their task was to be an escort for the artillery, for which matchlocks would have carried the risk of igniting the open-topped barrels of gunpowder.
Drop us a line if you would like us to make a Skilt in your regiment’s colours.

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!
Order out of Skilt chaos
After years of having garment rails in my lounge I now have a dedicated wardrobe for clients to browse. One of every stye and size of Skilt available – all neat and tidy. Next time you are in London why not come over and have a look?
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.

The kilt is a symbol of male emancipation
Clothing is a deeply political statement. Here at Skilt we wholeheartedly support all our sisters in their right to wear trousers (or whatever else they choose – including nothing).
Wearing a kilt out in public is not always the easiest thing for a man to do. It takes balls. But really it is nothing like what women in some other countries still face. Show your solidarity with them by wearing your kilt with pride.
Union Flag kilt is now in stock
Making a Union Flag kilt is a bit like doing a jigsaw. The guys in the workshop have been hard at work finding the corners, completing the edges, filling in the sky … and, happily all the pieces were there. We now have Union Flag kilts in stock. Buy one here.
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!

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
