Gold Brothers, aka...

When I first heard of "Gold Bros" I thought they were Jewish - not that it matters. Of course I was way off. That's what I get for thinking in stereotypes.

If you say so....

It should be noted that there are lots of other businesses that re-sell Heritage of Scotland products, for example: The Scotland Kilt Company, Macdonald Sporrans and the casual kilts sold on Carse of Gowrie (ebay) among many others so there isn't an easy way to judge, though from a British perspective if it's an online kilt and costs between 30 and 60 quid and calls itself 16oz Poly Viscose / casual / football / beer, chances are it's a Gold Bros kilt.

Hi folks,

Just joined the forum, so thought I would follow up on this thread - I've not read the whole thread, but think I have an idea of what's been said.

I can confirm that we (and other shops) sell products from Gold Brothers and we have been doing so for a few years. We are an independent business, based in Edinburgh and work with a number of manufacturers to offer a wide range of products.

In general, we only sell products which we believe offer good value for money. No one can deny that a £50 kilt will be the same as a £300 kilt, but we feel that our stock kilts offer a competitively priced alternative to a pure wool kilt. We also find that depending on your budget, or the occasion you're buying a kilt for, often the stock kilt is a better buy!

Hope this helps, and I'd be happy to answer any questions that anyone has.

Regards,
Fergus

I cannot speak for everyone, but I am sure some will agree, we do not mind the stores that sell them honestly...But to claim they are wool or mislead someone to thinking they are purchasing a Scottish Made kilt is immoral.

But I wish not to stir the pot anymore then that.

Indeed! We are actually in the process of updating all our products to give a clearer representation of their quality and hence value. I wrote this information page which covers the differences between our kilts: How to find your perfect kilt

Only $98.00 for 8 yards of poly-viscose???? SOunds like a deal. I can't find fabric alone for that price!

All their crap retails at £39.99 :mrgreen: I didn't realise that Gold Bros also sell property... (look at their site - 'flats to rent') I dread to see what the quality of that is...

What the heck are you talking about???? I am insulted, those flats are designed in scotland and they have wall-to-wall carpeting with a poly-wool mixture!

Hi say there chaps, think I will nip outside for some Whiskey and Popcorn. This thread is warming up. Gold Brothers flats are designed in Scotland but are made in China.
