Some alternatives to Kilt Hire London

There are many outlets in Edinburgh and Glasgow selling cheaper kilts. Aldi and Lidl have also be known to sell them nationwide in the run-up to Burns Night. You can check eBay for a second hand one. For some reason owning a kilt seems to go with an increase in waist size (cure: drink more whisky, eat less haggis), so although you can let out kilts people do trade them in. Good quality kilts are extremely long lasting, so a second hand one might suit you down to your knees.

And if you are after something different ….we couldn’t leave this page without mentioning 21st Century Kilts – a truly innovative company offering something very different.  You’ll have to go to Edinburgh to see them though, but then isn’t that a great excuse?
