I was in the STM gift shop yesterday helping set up for the Taste of Scotland festival (which is this weekend, BTW). They have probably about 20 or so kilts for sale which are in excellent condition. I believe they are from a pipe band which is switching to a new tartan.

The tartan is Malcolm modern, heavy weight Strome woven by Lochcarron. I believe the kilts were constructed by Lochcarron, as well. They are all eight yard kilts, pleated to the stripe. I did not examine each one, but the ones I saw seemed to be in excellent condition. I doubt these kilts have much age on them at all.

A variety of sizes are available. Best part is, they are only $200. Here's a great chance to get an excellent kilt at an excellent price.

Mael Colum, maybe you want to alert your Clan Malcolm brethren!?

Contact the STM for more info on these. 1-866-898-1192 or tartans@scottishtartans.org.

(Remember, though, today is a Festival day so it may be hard to reach the shop via phone today, I'd recommend waiting till Monday to call).

Aye,
Matt
