The Kilt

A kilt is a traditional Scottish garment, typically made of tartan fabric, which is a patterned wool cloth representing Scottish clans. It is a knee-length skirt worn by men, often during formal events, celebrations, or as a symbol of Scottish heritage. The kilt features pleats and is usually accessorized with items like sporran (pouch), belt, and dagger. Its design and tartan patterns serve as identifiers of regional or familial identity, and it has become a symbol of Scottish pride and culture worldwide.
