Now available to purchase!

The Scottish Tartans Museum is very proud to now be able to offer through our gift shop a range of quality, made to measure, tropical weight linen kilt jackets.



Most Highland dress clothing items are made for the Scottish climate -- which is only natural. The problem is that today most people of Scottish descent do not live in Scotland! Those with Scottish heritage are scattered from the Carolinas to California, from Argentina to Australia. What are those who want to honor their Scottish heritage to do who live in warmer climes, and have Highland Games and other events to attend in the summer heat?

The linen kilt jacket is the perfect adaptation of Highland style to warmer climes. The 100% linen shell of this jacket is light weight, comfortable, and great looking to boot!

We are able to offer this jacket in 10 colors, so you are sure to find a shade to compliment your tartan.

Best yet, these are not cheaply made "off the rack" items, but truly made to measure garments. We ask for some essential measurements when you order, but if you have a hard-to-fit shape or require special sizing, just let us know.

I've had mine for several days and really am enjoying it during our late-August heat here in North Carolina. The outside pockets are nice and deep. There are three pockets on the inside left and one on the inside right, so you hardly need to use your sporran. And I love the fact that the buttons on the cuffs are really functional (despite the fact that I know I'll probably never need to unbutton them, it's just nice knowing they are real buttons).

More details are on the web site. Please just let me know if you have questions and I'll do my best to answer!
