    It looks great. A question to you or any other pipe band members: How much does a complete outfit like that cost or do you borrow/rent it from the band you are playing with?

    That one is owned by my band, but I'm the only one who wears it. I'm not exactly sure what it costs, but we're supplied by J. Higgins, so here's his prices:

    Gillie brogues: $85
    Hose: $17.50
    Flashes: $9.50
    Cross belt: $95
    Piper's doublet: $350
    Pipers plaid: $295
    Military sporran: $250
    Balmoral: $40
    Kilt pin: $19.50
    Brooch: $40
    Dirk: $425
    Sgian dubh: $40
    Belt and buckle: $100
    16oz. 8 yard kilt: $525

    Total: $2291.50

    Bagpipes and reeds: $950

    Grand total in that photo: $3151.50


    So yeah, I'm wearing almost $3200 worth of stuff there. Kind of intimidating...

    I don't care if the thread is over a year old, I am really envious! Wish I had a uniform like that. It must cost a pretty penny, though.

    Well, when I made the post back in Jan-Feb 2007 I didn't have one. Now I do. time has passed. This is a very old thread.
