    Recommended kiltmakers in Highlands?

    That's Inverness, Dingwall, Beauly? if not any views on the UK internet based kiltmakers? Any comments (especially from first-hand experience) gratefully received.

    There is also

    HIGHLAND HOUSE OF FRASER LTD, Inverness, 4-9 Huntly Street, Inverness, IV3 5PR, Tel: +44 (0)1463 222781 - I had a look in the shop in July and it's very well stocked with quality items but I thought it a bit on the pricey side.

    Thanks. Beauly is walking distance, so will try there first (and mention Rab).

    Kiltmakers in the highlands

    My partner had his kilt made by Gary in Beauly. He is army trained then was at Hector Russell and now doing his own thang. The lad works stupid hours. Usually in his workshop until 1am. He is reasonably priced too. I had one of mine made by Chisholms in Castle Street, Inverness. They made Guy Ritchie's kilt for his wedding to Madge.
