Living in the US would have normally made purchasing a kilt in Scotland difficult, but William made…read morethe whole process a breeze. Since my now-wife is from Scotland, I wished to buy a kilt for our wedding. I had several phone conversations with William who talked me through the whole process and answered the many questions I had as a first-time kilt buyer. He was extremely kind, patient, professional and knowledgeable. Although we never got to meet (my wife collected the kilt in Glasgow), it was an absolute pleasure to work with both William and McCalls of Glasgow and I would highly recommend them.

I am an American who recently visited Scotland and wanted to purchase a kilt. I did a lot of…read moresearching in both Edinburgh and Stirling. Many of the shops I visited were staffed by people who knew surprisingly little about how kilts should fit, fabric quality, etc. In some shops, it was assumed that I was not a serious buyer. After an especially negative experience with an unhelpful saleswoman in Stirling, I finally found the kilt I wanted to buy just down the road at Clan Kilts Ltd. As it happened, it was an ex-hire heavyweight kilt being offered at an excellent price, so I felt I had really scored.... but it got even better! I had already committed to buying the kilt, but the gentleman in the shop volunteered to replace the somewhat worn leather straps at no additional charge. He measured to make sure the new straps would be ideally placed. He even offered to have the kilt pressed. Because I already felt that I was getting such a great deal, I had not requested any of these services; they were all offered unexpectedly. I had the kilt shipped home to the USA. The charges were extremely reasonable. The kilt was delivered very quickly, with new straps, etc, just as promised. I have never had better retail service anywhere in the world. If Clan Kilts provides such excellent service to a tourist whom they're unlikely to see again, and who is buying a discounted item, I can only assume that they must bend over backward for their local repeat clientele.

On our last day in Scotland, my husband was determined to get a kilt. Having learned that "real"…read morekilts start at £300 for just the kilt, and are upwards of £1,000 for the whole set, he decided to get a "casual kilt," which is essentially the same, just not made from pure wool. Braveheart Kilts was having a sale on casual kilts for £30. When we walked in and explained to the gentleman what we were looking for, he measured my husband and offered him a choice of 4 different tartans for his kilt. After he picked his tartan, he got to working on the rest of his set. He set my husband up with a shirt, sporran, sgain dubh, and socks. Also, since my husband was a "kilt virgin," he threw in a kilt pin and flashers for free. He knew we weren't looking to spend a ton of money, and respected that, not trying to push us to buy top of the line accessories. In the end, my husband was thrilled with his purchase. He wore it to dinner that night, and our hosts in Scotland were thrilled to see him. He can't wait to wear it to other future events. We had a nice experience at Braveheart Kilts, and are thankful for their kindness and professionalism.

High quality kilt maker let down by disorganisation, overcharging and an incomplete order. I was…read moregiven a full Kilt voucher by my parents for my 21st birthday, my parents were told I could choose any tartan, any style of shirt, sporran and so on. They paid well over £1000 for this. I went along to make my selections and was told I would need to pay in another couple of hundred pounds as I wanted a sporran not included in the deal, a tie instead of a bow tie and I was sold the service of having the belt buckle and sporran decal to be customised to blend with the kilt colour and style. Initially I did not mind too much about his initial misleading sales pitch to my parents as I thought I would eventually get exactly what I was sold. My order took months, yes months. In fact my order is still not complete and I am now 29. The kiltmaker gave me a second hand, scratched up, rental belt buckle to use and promised that the customised buckle would be eventually delivered. After visiting the store on a weekly, then mothly basis, I realised that this man was not interested in completing the order at all. It may seem unfair to award 1 star due to just the belt buckle but this review reflects the way the kiltmaker overcharged for the exact feature he pitched to me, and then did not deliver. He never once offered a partial refund or even to replace the used buckle for a new one. He never apologised for the delay or for his failure to complete the order. There are plenty of Kilt makers in Scotland, avoid this one.

I messaged Slanj through FB and they responded right away that they ship to the US, so I placed my order online. Super easy! The communication was absolutely top notch! After ordering, I was kept up to date as it was processed and provided a tracking number. This is the first time I've actually been able to track a package from the UK to the US successfully. Lo and behold, everything arrived today in perfect condition and I couldn't be happier!! If you're in need of a special gift from Scotland, definitely check them out!
