Great Kilt – Special Order, Custom Tartans
Great Kilts Sizing
We have found that the lower the yardage the better and easier these are to fold and put on. Our 5 yard is what we recommend for the vast majority of men. However, for those larger than about 46 or for those that just want the extra material, we offer up to a 10 yard great kilt.
Traditional Great Kilt (Feileadh Mòr) – Hand-Pleated Wool Highland Garment
The Great Kilt, also known as the Feileadh Mòr or Breacan an Fhéilidh, is a long, traditional piece of fabric that is hand-pleated and wrapped around the body, then secured with a belt or strap while laying the fabric out flat. This was the original Highland garment worn before the development of the more modern tailored kilts with buckles and straps. Each great kilt is made from 100% woolen wool using double-width (54”) fabric, with fringed ends for an authentic finish. They are available in lengths from 5 to 10 yards and come in over 150 tartans, offering a truly traditional and customizable Scottish look.
For sizing, we recommend most customers choose the 5-yard option—it offers the best balance of appearance and ease of pleating. Larger individuals, particularly those with waist sizes over 46–48 inches, may find the 6-yard length a better fit for proper coverage and drape. While higher yardage options up to 10 yards are available for those who prefer a fuller look, most find that 5 or 6 yards provides the most comfortable and practical wear.
Sizing / Measuring
We typically recommend the 5 yard great kilt for the vast majority of men. These tend to be the easiest to work with when pleating, putting it on, etc. However, we have options for up to 10 yards for the great kilt. If you wanted something bigger, please use the contact form on the website to reach out to us directly.
