    Hibs Tartan Kilt

    Just wondering if anyone could give me some advice or a wee bit help, my Mrs and I have set a date for our wedding and I’d love to kit myself and my groomsmen out in hibs tartan kilts for my wedding. I know McCalls are meant to have the right to the tartan but I live in Dundee and I’m unsure if the McCall’s here will have it. Is there a shop in Edinburgh that perhaps will have it (obviously McCall’s will be the first place I’ll look) Cheers for the help in advance.

    McCall’s gets all their hire kilts in from their warehouse in Aberdeen so you may be ok with the Dundee shop.

    Don't know the name of the shop, but there is a kilt hire shop at top end of easter road just up from Middleton's pub. They have the Hibs tartan there.

    Got married in Hibs tartan kilt back in 1998. Great choice!

    McCall's royal mile. My old man (yam) even wore it :)

    Bowden’s used to be good but they have went down hill the last few years in my opinion. I always went there for my tartan but last time I was there it was really poor. May have something to do with bob going to slanj on st marys Street as I went in there and got it instead.

    Agree, Bowdens have went down hill since they stopped providing some big Civil Service uniform contracts.

    How on earth has someone other than Hibs got the rights to the Hibs Tartan?

    That sounds like a total balls-up to me.

    On a similar theme, has anyone got a tie/cravate from McCalls in the Hibs tartan? Struggling to find one on the website, but then again I couldn't find the kilt until seeing the link above.

    You can get silk in hibs tartan from McCalls and make your own.
    My father-in-law had one done for our wedding

    Apologies for bumping an old thread but come across it on my google search...

    Does anyone know if/where I could source a pair of Hibs Tartan Trousers?

    Cheers

    My mate from school works in McCalls and has sorted another friend of mine out with all sorts of stuff in the Hibs tartan in the past.

    Kevin Eadie is the man you're looking for. He knows his stuff and goes out of his way to help folk.
