Bespoke Eight Yard Kilt by Manley Richardson

Manley Richardson tailors exquisitely made to measure garments, with incomparable attention to detail. Be guided by the founder's recommended specification, in the certainty of utter satisfaction. Or request your own detailed design. Our expert tailors delight in producing individual garments to your most exacting demands.

Fabrics
Your kilt will be fully hand-stitched from around eight yards of pure new wool fabric (or other materials on request) from only the finest Scottish mills. Thousands of traditional tartans can be supplied, or you can even create your own design.

Pleating
Most customers prefer conventional rear pleating 'to the sett'. But if you prefer your kilt pleated to stripe, to horizontal, or perhaps box pleating or some other special arrangement, just ask. There's no extra charge.

Fringes
The front edge of the Manley Richardson kilt apron normally has two fringes. But if you prefer a single fringe, three fringes, or even four, our tailors will happily comply.

Lining
The garment's normal specification includes a finely embroidered monogram kilt lining, in addition to a robust canvas waist lining. But if you would prefer to choose your own lining colour, we will strive to find a close match.

Straps
We normally fit two leather straps on the waist, and one on the hip. Each strap is made from premium grade leather in a choice of colours to suit the material, and each is subtly embossed with the Manley Richardson monogram. But if you prefer plain straps, or a leather tone of your own choice, just ask.

Buckles
As standard we offer a no-cost choice of a stylish modern pewter buckle, or one in a more traditional style. But you may prefer to select from a range of alternative finishes, such as silver or gold plated metalwork.

Belt Loops
Two belt (or sporran strap) loops constructed from your chosen tartan are stoutly sewn to the rear as standard, carefully tartan-matched to near-invisibility. But if you'd prefer more, fewer, or none, just say.

Flashes
We include complementary hose flashes in your kilt tartan, which are normally each cut with a double point. But if you would prefer your flashes in a plain colour of your choice, or square cut, or perhaps garter ties instead, there's no other charge.

Basting
Due to our tailor's custom pleating process, we normally add no basting stitching for transport, to avoid unnecessary inconvenience on arrival. But if you prefer basting, just specify... even how many rows you would like.

Every Manley Richardson kilt is fully hand-stitched as standard by the world's most expert kiltmakers. A kilt is a lifetime's investment. So treat yourself to the finest kilt on earth!
