Graeme is a great guy who helped me out greatly when I lived in Phoenix and had a couple ill-fitting kilts. Besides Kiltmart, which is never physically open, his shop is the only one in town. He does nearly exclusively a rental business, although does do special orders and carries a small selection of accessories. Real genuine guy, and his wife is sweet too. Glad to see he got some exposure in the public eye.
It is about time for the Phoenix Games if I remember, like maybe next week. That was my first two years ago, kilted for the first time in public, after Graeme's help getting my rig squared away. Amazing how far you can go in such a short time.
Good for you Graeme.

There is another operation in town that does not have a good reputation.
The Highland Games will be February 27-28 at the Steele Indian School Park next to the VA Hospital on Central and Indian School.

Interesting---If I remember correctly that should be very close if not right across the street from Kiltmart. That is also the park where the two news choppers went down a couple years ago.
The other operation, beside Kiltmart and Graeme, that I knew of when I was there a couple years ago was a solo piper who basically sold wares out of his house north of town, and from a tent at events, to supplement his piping income. Is that the same one you are thinking of?
I will have to miss it as I am now moved to KY and, even though I still own a home there, do not plan a return to phoenix anytime soon.
