Interesting Video Regarding Kinloch-Anderson in Leith, Scotland

Greetings all,

I recently came across a video discussing the famous company of Kinloch-Anderson located in Leith, Scotland (Port of Edinburgh), and other interesting aspects, with Highland attire being at the fore. All of my kilts, day jackets and waistcoats, evening doublets and waistcoats, and many other Highland accessories are made by Kinloch-Anderson. I firmly stand behind the timeless and heirloom quality that is the hallmark of their products. Enjoy.

No worries! Thanks for posting the video in a much easier way for members to view it! I still haven't figured out how to do that yet! LOL!

Slainte,

Great video, although I will admit to flinching a bit at about the 2 minute mark when the tailor ripped the tartan down the middle. Interesting to hear of the products other than kilts and jackets that they produce.

Interesting video. I like the idea of playing cricket in a kilt.

That is startling at first sight, but that's the way it's done. Typically one can rip a much straighter line than one can cut; and probably lose fewer threads than if it's cut with scissors and then cleaned up!

The weight of the fabric is significant, as is making a nice clip through the selvedge with room to grab firmly on each side.
