If it's for hire, McCalls do it. They probably sell it too.

Mccalls have the exclusive license on it. To sell anyway, not sure if others can rent. Really freidnly guys there anyway, so worth checking out!

Just ordered a hire for the Hibs Tartan from McCalls as well, full outfit including Hibs tartan tie you get to keep for £130.

McCalls are the only place that do the Hibs tartan.

I got one made, and got married in it, this year. Although it's not the official tartan which I find to be a bit bright nowadays. Picture attached - it was listed as a Hibernian FC tartan on the Dalgleish website, they wove it from scratch and I got it made over here.

That's really smart did you just get it made locally. I proposed to my other half after the Scottish cup final so now need to get a kilt. That tartan is spot on!

McCalls do the official Hibs tartan kilt between £250-£400 depending on weight of material.

Dalgleish (in Scotland) wove it and sent it over here where it was made. Was about £500 or less at current exchange rate. I initially found it just by typing in Hibernian on Scotweb site - there were a handful of other 'Hibernian FC' tartans on there too, pretty much all of which I preferred to the official one!

Edit - seems that following my purchase all the variations on the tartan are no longer there! I was told they were a bit reluctant to weave mine as it was an error or some such thing but they eventually did it and I apparently have a unique tartan.

I realised I posted a pic with a filter on, the purple isn't quite that bright. Unfiltered attached.

Always promised myself I'd get one of these when my weight was at the right level.

The better quality ones were from the club shop a few years back, the later ones are nowhere near as good.

I went to buy a Hibs kilt.

The cost over a normal/standard kilt of similar quality in a similar shop is +£200.

While I'm still thinking about it, hurry up Jack it's a 12 week make up time, I'd be more than happy to borrow a big one ;-) from mid January to end February for the price of a reasonable donation to a Hibs charity!

And a dry clean, obviously.

I'm leaning to £200 extra is a bit much for something that is unlikely to be worn at all often. The hire of it over the same period is almost the same as buying it ... and don't mention the cost of shipping it here there and everywhere!
