Arrange an Alteration or Remake

Whether you bought your kilt from MacGregor and MacDuff or somewhere else, we want to see you get the most out of it. That's why we offer kilt alterations and full remakes. From a simple buckle adjustment to unstitching all the pleats, our talented kiltmakers can make your kilt feel brand new.

Please note that our timescales are fixed and we will be unable to rush your order. We can however offer you a kilt hire while you wait for your kilt to be completed.

To book a kilt alteration appointment at any of our UK locations, give us a call on 0141 280 3398. Alternatively, use the form below and one of our team will call you within 48 hours.


Kilt Alterations

A kilt can last a lifetime and beyond, but as your body changes, your kilt unfortunately doesn’t. That's why we offer kilt alterations from as little as £50. If your kilt needs to be let out or brought in a couple of inches, this can be accommodated by moving your kilt strap and sewing it in at the new location. We are also able to hem your kilt to alter the overall length of it for a better fit.

Kilt alterations have a lead time of 6 to 8 weeks so keep that in mind if you have a specific event coming up.

Full Kilt Remakes

If you own a handmade kilt and would like to have it unstitched and remade to a new size, we can help.

The beauty of a handmade kilt is that the stitching can be completely undone, leaving a full length of tartan that can be utilised to create a completely new kilt. Whether you are passing your kilt on to the next generation or you have inherited a kilt from a relative, we can remake your kilt. This is a great way to keep your kilt, and all its history, occasion-ready for years to come.

Full kilt remakes are £350 and have a lead time of 14 to 16 weeks.

When Should You Start Arranging Your Kilt?

November 22, 2023

The design of a traditional Scottish kilt has remained largely unchanged since the 18th century. From weaving the tartan to folding the pleats, each step of the process requires great skill and craftsmanship. Even after the Industrial Revolution introduced commodities like weaving and sewing machines, the process is still fairly complex. The intricacy and complexity of kilts is what makes them special, meaning production does take time. Whether you are buying a machine-made or handmade kilt, it’s important to consider how far in advance you should get things organised. While hire kilts aren’t made to order, during busy times of...
