Add Cheater Pleats
$70.00
This is a nice convenience option. Your kilt will still look like you pleated it yourself, but you can take it off and put it back on any time you want to without redoing your pleats. We pleat the kilt for you and stitch a waistband inside to hold it all together. (A belt will still be necessary to hold your kilt on).
We ask for size information to be sure that your kilt will fit you correctly, but we do not pleat the kilt for you unless you also select Cheater Pleats™ as an additional option. Selecting cheater pleats with this check box will add the standard (pleat-to-set and lightly ironed) cheater pleats to your kilt order. If you would like different cheater pleat options go to Cheater Pleats™

Our phillabegs (little kilt) are made in the USA from our medium weight premium wool tartan that is woven in Scotland. The Phillabeg is an early predecessor of today’s modern kilt, dating back to at least the late 1600’s. It is simply a length of tartan about 25″ wide and about 4 yds long, loosely bunched or pleated, and held about the waist with a belt. Perfect for Renaissance festivals, Renaissance weddings, casual wear, Irish fairs and Highland games.
