Light Weight Premium Wool Phillabeg

If you need a kilt for wear in a hot climate, then this is the one for you! Made from premium, lightweight tartan woven in Scotland, this phillabeg (aka phille-bheagh, felidh-beag, or “little kilt”) has a thin, breathable fabric that’s perfect for summer events and festivals. With over 1,000 tartans to choose from, you’re sure to find one you need, and you can customize yours further by adding Cheater pleats too (it’s OK, we won’t tell!). If you choose to pleat your kilt yourself, don’t worry! There are pleating instructions included with your new phillabeg. All you need to do now is add a brooch and matching flashes to complete your authentic Celtic outfit!

Sizing:

A 4 yard kilt will fit up to about a 38 inch waist, a 5 yard kilt will fit up to about a 48 inch waist, and a 6 yard kilt will fit up to about a 60 inch waist. If you are larger than this please contact us for pricing on larger kilts. Also, If your waist size is close to one of these limits, consider the next size larger if you want deeper pleats or pleats closer together.

For example:
If you have a 34-inch waist, a 4 yd phillabeg will have pleats 1.5 – 2 inches wide and 3-4 inches deep. A 5 yd phillabeg will have pleats approximately 1 inch wide and 3-4 inches deep or 1.5 – 2 inches wide and 6-8 inches deep. In this example, a 6 yd kilt would be overkill with a 34 inch waist, but it would have pleats about 1 inch wide and 6-8 inches deep.

How to measure for your Phillabeg:

  1. Measure the waist size at your actual waist, where you usually wear your pants.
  2. Measure from your waist to about the middle of the knee.
    Have someone help you. If you bend even a little while trying to do it yourself, the measurement will change.
