Before the modern walking kilt, there was the Great Kilt the Féileadh Mòr ("big wrap"). This full-length garment of belted plaid was the everyday dress of Highland men from the 16th century onwards. It was a kilt, a cloak, a blanket, and a shelter all in one and it remains one of the most dramatic and historically authentic forms of Highland dress you can wear today. At Great Kilt, the Great Kilt is our signature piece.
We are named after it because we believe it deserves to be worn again. Our Great Kilts are handcrafted from premium tartan fabric in your choice of clan or universal tartan, with generous yards of cloth for the authentic belted wrap that turns heads wherever it is worn.
The Great Kilt is for enthusiasts, reenactors, Highland game competitors, and anyone who wants to make a statement at events and gatherings. It is also increasingly popular at Highland weddings where the groom wants something truly unforgettable. If you want to stand apart from every other kilt in the room, the Great Kilt is your answer.
Every Great Kilt is made with the craft and care our name demands. Free shipping, made-to-measure fit, and a kilt that will be an heirloom, not just a garment.
