Description
The Balmoral hat has a long, proud history in traditional Scottish dress. A modern version of the famous 'blue bonnet' worn by the fierce highlanders, the Balmoral is a dramatic hat best worn with fully formal highland dress.
The original Balmoral, the blue bonnet, was far more voluminous than the modern version, but the key features remain the same. The distinctive puffed top and toorie (or pompom) are the most noticeable features and are certainly what give this hat it's striking appearance.
The Balmoral is usually tilted to show off the black ribbon on the left side - the perfect place to attach your Clan badge. Adopted by the famous Black Watch regiment as part of their dress uniforms, the Balmoral hat will look as impressive with your formal highland dress.
Choose your Balmoral in a choice of black or navy blue for a majestic, traditional accessory that really will be the crowning glory of your kilt outfit.

Scotweb’s MD, Dr Nicholas J Fiddes, has written a free illustrated e-book, as a gift to help kilt lovers everywhere. In simple non-technical language it covers every aspect of buying a kilt, choosing your tartan, and accessorising an outfit for every occasion.
As a Governor of the Scottish Tartans Authority, and founder of the world’s first company to market kilts on the Internet (yes, Scotweb) no one is better qualified to offer such advice. Impartial and objective, this is a personal work and is not a Scotweb publication.
