    All Products Made in Canada

    I am very proud of the fact that all our products that we have on offer for sale are in fact made in my shop here in Canada. I may import raw material from Scotland for the tweed and tartan kilts, and I import the finest leathers available from Argentina but I deal mostly with local suppliers who provide me with excellent materials so that I in turn can produce top quality goods to be enjoyed for years to come.
    For that very reason, I am able to monitor the quality of my product as it is not farmed out to another company to source out for the cheapest price on the market, to which, in most cases sacrifices quality.
    I do not support child labour, nor do I support sweatshops. I alone will spend the time to fulfill the order from start to finish.
    It's been a pleasure to meet customers at my shop, I'm able to show them what goes into the product from design to the finished item. With Skype or facetime I have been able to give the client a tour of the facilities, making that purchase just a little more personal.
    This is what shops similar to me can offer YOU the consumer. I can assure you that the product that you decided to purchase is made to the best of our ability and we understand the value of every hard earned dollar that it took to make that purchase.
    I thank you for considering to do business with RKilts and to small businesses like myself who embrace these values.
    Cheers

    Good on you. It is always good to hear attitudes such as yours towards the products you make and sell.

    Oh, Robert works like a slave himself, so perhaps that's a kind of sweat shop? I've been in his beautiful loft workshop and am always deeply impressed with the man and the products.
