Kilts

Kilts are traditional Scottish garments, typically made from wool, designed as a knee-length skirt with pleats at the back. Originating from Scottish Highland dress, they feature tartan patterns that often represent specific clans or regions. Worn by men for formal occasions, cultural events, or ceremonies, kilts symbolize Scottish heritage and pride. They are usually paired with accessories like sporrans (pouches), sgian-dubhs (knives), and ghillie brogues (shoes). Kilts blend historical significance with contemporary fashion, serving as a distinctive emblem of Scottish identity worldwide.
