    Places in Europe to Find high quality used kilts

    Gentlemen

    I'm trying to find the following kilts, which stand a better than average chance of being located in used form:

    (I am 34 waist 25 or 26 length)

    Irish saffron
    Murray of Atholl
    USMC

    I travel widely and am interested in anyone's experiences in locating resale locations in Scotland, UK or elsewhere. Much resale is online these days but not all. Going to Scotland in May....

    EBay will be your best bet. But those are quite specific and not especially common tartans / colours, so you will need to very lucky to get something to show up in both the right cloth and your size.

    Unless you are going for a very common tartan (I recently bought a military kilt in Government tartan, where there are a bounty of options as to size because so many are available) you are perhaps best to concentrate on getting something in the correct size and be a bit flexible over the tartan.

    I’m not aware of anywhere in Scotland that focuses specifically on used kilts.

    There is a store which has an extensive collection of used kilts in a variety of conditions and quality in the Grassmarket in Edinburgh (Armstrongs) and they have a second branch near to the Festival Theatre They mainly cater to students.
