Electric blue rubberised Skilt
This has the look and feel of a rubber kilt but in a much thicker and more durable form. This fabric was originally used by Belstaff and I managed to buy enough for just a few Skilts. It has a rubber layer applied to a fabric base and in real life the colour is a vibrant electric blue that addled my main camera – it is closest in colour to the lighter blue fabric pic.
Don’t dry clean it! Hand wash in warm water.

Silver rubberised Skilt

Lightweight silver Skilt
This silver Skilt weighs in at just 500g and yet it is still robust enough for everyday wear. What kind of mythical material is it made of? We don’t really know. What we do know is that we could only find one roll of the stuff so, as ever, once these are gone, they are gone. Take it backpacking or dress it up with a dinner jacket. Just be careful in the wind and don’t expect it to keep you warm!

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
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.
Jonathan.
Finally … a new black on black leopard Skilt
Grrrr! For years now I’ve been searching for fabric to make more black on black animal print Skilts. Well…
Lightweight and soft with a velvety feel I predict these will sell quickly. I’ve only got one roll of fabric so if you like it you best pounce quickly.
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.
On a kilt fabric buying expedition in the wilds of north London
With friend and ace photographer Laura Hynd. I went to buy a small quantity of black synthetic fabric for a custom order and came away with 62 metres of fabulous brown wool fabric that will make up beautifully.

The The biker Skilt … not just for biking!
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.

We are delighted to welcome American poet and awesome beard wearer Kenneth Goldsmith to the Skilt wearing brotherhood.

Our kilts featured in Notion Magazine
We are delighted that Skilt has been featured in the Buffalo Boy feature in Notion 051. We’re not sure exactly what a Buffalo Boy is but we figure it’s a reference to Malcolm McLaren’s Buffalo Gals. All this scratching’s making us itch!
New kilt: Beige Green Red Prince of Wales check City Skilt
We’ve just added a fourth City Skilt to our range. We have gone for another Prince of Wales check as the others have proved so popular. This wool fabric has a beige base colour with green and red. We’ve teamed it with brown leather straps and brown corozo buttons. It is the buttons that make this a City Skilt but we think it looks perfect for a spot of sport in the country.
Hope you like it!
Satisfied customer: Joseph’s Skilt is cool and modern
Hi Richard
Thank you for you prompt dispatch. It’s a very cool and modern version of the traditional kilt. Shame I am not in Scotland as I would wear it more often…!
All the best
Joseph
My reply was:
You’re welcome. Glad you like it. You don’t need to be in Scotland to wear a kilt! I suggest you take it for a walk this weekend and enjoy the admiration.
