Traditional Handsewn Kilts
and Accessories
Pipers' Accessories/Mìreannan nan Pìobaire
IPERS REQUIRE FAR MORE ACCESSORIES THAN THE average gent bedecked in Highland wear. Below you will find a wide assortment of items to meet your piping needs. There is generally considered to be two modes of uniform dress: No. 1 and No. 2.No. 1 Dress is the most formal and consists of a Kinfe-Pleated Deluxe kilt, a tunic or doublet, a horsehair sporran, spats with diced hose, a feather bonnet, a sgian dubh, a kilt pin, a belt with a cross-belt, and a full piper's plaid fastened with a brooch.
No. 2 Dress is more casual and consists of a Knife-Pleated Deluxe kilt, an Argyll jacket, shirt and tie, glengarry hat, 'popcorn' top hose, ghillie brogues, a sgian dubh, a kilt pin, and some type of sporran.

Piper's Hose
These hose are made from 70% wool and 30% stretch nylon. The turn-over section is referred to as a "bobble" or "popcorn" top. It is integrated as an extended turn-over which can be adjusted to meet individual length requirements. The cross-stitch section expands almost 12 inches (depending on size), which allows the wearer to turn over three times to produce a roll at the top of the sock of 4 inches bulked out, or to turn over only twice to give a longer look with less bulk. Sizes Small (UK 4-7), Medium (UK 8-10), and Large (UK 11-13). Available in: Black, Navy, Arran (Off-White), Lovat Blue, Lovat Green, Bottle Green, and Charcoal.
