Our Synthetic Sole Ghillie Brogues are the perfect blend of tradition and comfort—making them our best-selling Scottish dress shoes. Designed for pipers, dancers, and anyone wearing Highland dress, these brogues offer the authentic look you need with the all-day comfort you’ll appreciate. Crafted with full leather uppers, a padded topline, and a cushioned heel, they’re made to keep your feet supported whether you’re performing or attending formal events.
Featuring a durable synthetic sole and lining, these shoes are built to last and easy to maintain. Available in sizes 4 to 16, they’re traditionally worn with thick kilt hose. Please note: these brogues tend to run small, so we recommend ordering a half size up from your regular shoe size for the best fit.

Great Value
I prefer the synthetic sole over leather sole. More comfortable in my opinion. The quality of the shoe is over and above. Very happy with my purchase.

Perfect fit!
I've been looking for a more comfortable Ghillie Brogue and this is it! A nice comfortable sole and finally a pair that fits my feet. Thank you Celtic Croft!

Customer review
Good looking and very comfortable. Wore them all night on New Years Eve dancing. Customer service was also very helpful. I needed to order on short notice as my old brogues no longer fit. Customer service confirmed that they could get them to me in time. I will definitely be shopping on kilts-n-stuff again.

I made the mistake of ordering my shoe size, and I have the blisters on my heels for proof. When they say order a size larger DO IT. Don't do like I did and get "the right size" you'll pay for it in the end. BUT other than that definitely will be buying the right size next time.

Review from Will
These are exactly what I was looking for! The fit is great (order them a little on the big side as has been previously noted). They look amazing and are the perfect finishing touch to the ensemble. Thanks!

Review from Chris
The shoes are exactly what I'd hoped for and fit perfectly, thanks to the recommendations I'd seen on the site to size up. Delivery was swift!

Review from Devin
These shoes are not the most comfortable, but very beautiful and of top quality! They run large, so you may want to buy half a size smaller than usual as the pair I bought are too big. I'll just double up on the hoes.

Review from Shaun
These are great shoes and they look amazing! I agree that you need to order a 1/2 size larger shoe than you normally would wear. I would recommend these to anyone, especially for the price!

Review from Randall P.
Another very good value! Sharp looking, well made, and comfortable. I did order a half size up, which left me with a great fit.
