Howells Tartan Kilt | Handmade Scottish Kilt Made to Your Measurements
The Howells Tartan Kilt from Kilts 4 Men is a traditional Scottish kilt cut, pleated and stitched by hand to the measurements you send us. Woven in the Howells tartan, it brings together Highland heritage and a personal fit, making it a dependable choice for weddings, Highland games, ceilidhs and family celebrations.
The Howells sett is woven as a repeating pattern of checks and lines, and because the kilt is pleated by hand, the way that pattern falls across the back and sides is as important as the front apron. Our makers take care to keep the design balanced along the full width of the kilt.
Handmade and Made to Your Measurements
Each Howells Tartan Kilt begins with the measurements you enter when ordering: your waist size and kilt length, with optional hip or seat and fell measurements if you would like a more precise shape. Using those figures, our makers cut, pleat and hand-stitch the kilt. Because it is made to order rather than taken from stock, the fit is tailored to you, and the adjustable straps give around two inches of movement above and below your waist measurement.

How to Wear the Howells Tartan
Whether you are a groom, a groomsman or a guest, the Howells Tartan Kilt is a versatile addition to your wardrobe. Dress it up with a Prince Charlie jacket for evening events, or keep it simple with a shirt, a leather sporran and hose for festivals, parades and family occasions.
Caring for Your Acrylic Wool Kilt
To keep the Howells tartan looking its best, hand wash the kilt in cold water and allow it to dry on a hanger. Keep it away from bleach and strong chemicals, and do not wring the fabric. Storing the kilt hanging, rather than folded, helps the pleats hold their shape.
