A hand-finished kilt combines the precision of modern stitching with the artistry of traditional Scottish craftsmanship. Each kilt is machine-stitched for accuracy and strength, then carefully finished by hand to ensure the perfect pleat and lasting quality.

Every pleat is reinforced using strengthened thread and a technique called steeking, adding extra durability to help the kilt hold its shape through years of wear. The hand finishing ensures neat, secure stitching and a refined appearance that reflects true attention to detail.
A hand-finished kilt offers the best of both worlds - the reliability of machine sewing and the craftsmanship of a handmade garment, creating a timeless, high-quality piece made to last. It is also slightly cheaper than the fully handmade kilt.
