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.

Review from Chris B.
They look sharp, and seem to wear very well. I agree with the poster who said they run small... order a half size up. Good shoes.

Review from DB
These ghillies are a real bargain and very comfortable from the first fit. They are made from high quality leather and look and feel as if they cost twice the price.

Review from Gordon S.
These are very nice ghillies. Synthetic soles are a plus if you wear them more than to tartan balls and Burns Suppers. However, the sizes do seem to run small, so better order at least 1/2 size bigger than usual.

These are my first Ghillie Brogues and I couldn't be more pleased. They fit perfectly and are exactly as described on line. Thank you, Celtic Croft!

Review from Ryan
These are comfortable shoes. Who cares if they don't have leather soles? Not me. They do fit wide, which is great for me and they wear better than some expensive dress shoes I own.
