This kilt pin uses a strong magnetic closure instead of a traditional pin, so no holes are made in your kilt fabric. The front piece is placed on the outer apron, with the backing magnet securing it from behind. The magnets are designed to hold securely during normal wear, including walking, sitting, and everyday movement.
These are rare earth magnets, which provide a strong hold but can be more brittle than standard magnets. Avoid letting the magnets snap together or collide, as this can cause damage. Because of the magnetic design, this pin is not intended for situations where it may be pulled, caught, or exposed to heavy force. To remove, slide the magnets apart rather than pulling directly.
Magnetic Safety Note: This product contains strong rare earth magnets. Individuals with pacemakers or other medical devices affected by magnets should consult a physician before use. Keep magnets away from electronic devices and sensitive equipment.

Symbols of the Ancients
Inspired by the historic Pictish Serpent Stone of Aberlemno, this kilt pin brings ancient symbolism into a rugged, wearable form. The raised markings reflect the original carvings found on Aberlemno I, capturing the mystery and craftsmanship of early Scotland. Designed with a textured stone-like finish and solid weight, this pin blends history with durability, making it a distinctive addition for those who appreciate heritage and meaning in every detail.
This kilt pin uses a strong magnetic backing for secure attachment without piercing the fabric. Simply place the front piece on the outer apron and the backing magnet behind the fabric to hold it in place. Measures 3.875 inches tall × 1.875 inches wide (98 mm × 48 mm).
Common Questions Asked About This Pin
Where is a kilt pin worn? – A kilt pin is worn on the front apron of the kilt on the wearer’s right side, typically near the lower outer corner. When looking down at your kilt, it should be positioned on the right-hand side of the front apron.
Does a kilt pin hold the kilt closed? – No. The straps and buckles secure the kilt. A kilt pin may add a small amount of weight to the outer apron, which can help in windy conditions, but it is primarily a decorative accessory.
Which part of the kilt does the pin attach to? – A kilt pin should be attached only to the outer apron of the kilt. It should never be pinned through both aprons.
This design is currently offered in a single finish chosen to highlight the detail and contrast of the carving. Additional color and finish options may be introduced over time as new variations are developed.
