Which Kilt Is Right for Me?

PREMIER KILT

These kilts are custom tailored from the finest 13 oz or 16 oz worsted wool, woven in the UK. These kilts are part machine sewn & part hand sewn. The pleats are lined up to an exacting standard so that the lines running horizontally across the back of the kilt are continuous. The fell is sewn down and tapered to your measurements to allow for a proper fit.

The front apron is fringed on the right side while the bottom edge of the kilt has a finished edge. The last pleat on the right hip is angled and reversed to allow better movement of the front apron and to maintain the integrity of the other pleats. This kilt features two 4 inch wide belt loops on the back to accommodate a traditional kilt belt and a 3 buckle / strap closure system (2 on the right hip, 1 on the left hip). The interior of each kilt is lined with a cotton lining on top of canvas to maintain the rigidity of the top portion of the kilt (and to reinforce the structural integrity of the garment).

If you want a high quality wool kilt and demand a superior product, the USA Kilts Premier model kilt is for you.

The USA Kilts “5 Yard Wool Kilt” is for a good variety of people. It’s for the guy who REALLY wants to wear his own tartan, but it’s not available in PV material (our Semi Traditional or Casual kilt). It’s for the guy who loves the weight and swing of wool, but doesn’t want to spend $500 - $600 on a Premier.  It’s for the guy who already HAS a Premier Kilt and wants something a little lighter to go out on the town.  It’s great for the guy who lives in a warmer climate for “year round wear” or for the man in a cooler climate who needs a nice kilt with less material for summer wear, when a Premier may be too hot. 

The 5 Yard Wool is a combination of our Premier and Semi Traditional kilt models… it’s tailored the same way as our Semi Traditional kilt, but it’s made from wool like our Premier model. This opens up a HUGE new list of available tartans, but you can still get a custom made kilt in most tartans for under $400.

Our Semi Traditional model is for the guy who already owns an entry level kilt and wants to move up to a more traditional looking model. It's also for the guy who really wants a custom, wool kilt, but just can't afford the additional expense. This customer demands the same appearance, but wants it at 1/3 the price.

These kilts are made with Poly Viscose material and have a Teflon coating (to resist stains). They are all MACHINE WASHABLE. Can your wool kilt do that? They all have: 3 buckle closure system, tapered and fringed front apron, small pleats (.75 to 1 inch) and two 4” belt loops on the back. The general overall material used in a Semi Traditional kilt is 5 to 7 yards, depending on the measurements.

If you HAVE or WANT an 8 yard wool kilt and expect similar quality and construction for 1/3 the price, the USA Kilts Semi Traditional model is for you!

The USA Kilts Casual Model is for the "lazy guy" (after all, Rocky designed it) and for the person who wants a quality “entry level” kilt. It's for the highland athlete who doesn't want to look like "the guy in the skirt" around all those wool kilts.

The material used in our Casual kilt is Poly Viscose.  It’s a machine washable fabric that’s coated with Teflon for stain resistance.  The pleat width generally falls between 1.25 to 1.5 inches and the overall material length is generally 4 to 6 yards. The Casual features our Perma Pleat™ system to lessen the need to iron the kilt! It also has tapered hips, velcro closure, a tapered front apron and 3 belt loops to fit a standard 1.5 inch belt.

If you're just starting to wear kilts or like the idea of kilts as casual daily wear, then the USA Kilts Casual model is for you!
