From Autumn 2017 The Kilt Store and Kilt Hire Co will be known as Eight Yards. We will describe ourselves as providers of Scottish Menswear. To do this we need to set ourselves apart from the more throwaway, lesser quality offers that now crowd our market. And we need to continue to attract new, loyal customers across generations. Having lifelong customers is really important for keeping our business strong. We already value the craft that goes into the menswear we sell and we work hard to make sure that our style and range is modern and relevant. Our new name and brand builds on these great qualities, allowing us to extend beyond kilt hire, to communicate more of our personality, the range we offer and the value of the service we provide. The descriptor Scottish Menswear. Explains what we do and includes our core business of Kilt sales and hire, without excluding the rest of our range. We are Eight Yards. We have created Eight Yards for men of all ages who appreciate quality, tradition and craft. Like us, our customers refuse to be stuck in the past.

I know they are second hand shoes but I would have had a job to have got a couple off quid at a car boot for these so put them straight in the bin where they should have be put in the first place

Wonder service
Wonder service, can’t thank yous enough for making my wedding a very memorable event. I highly recommend them for the best kilts in Edinburgh.

Saved the day
I had hired through another company, and they had let me down and sent the wrong jacket, so two hours to the wedding I was frantically looking for a solution! The staff in Eight Yards Edinburgh were really helpful and friendly, found a perfect replacement in minutes and I was on time to my event with a complete outfit! Quality and price were better too!
Disclaimer: they did tell me I was lucky they had my size available at such short notice as they would normally need time to ship from the warehouse.

Unprompted review
10 out of 10
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff, I have had a lot of kilt hires over the year's from a few different outlets. I have to say this was the best quality and overall experience I have had from any of them. A big thank you to the Eight Yards team.

What a wonderful experience
What a wonderful experience, thanks Holly, she took care of making sure we had the right fit.
Don’t be fooled by the exterior of the building, trust Waze to get you there.
We hope our return package by post was returned promptly, we used the prepackaged label and just had to pay for packing tape, as again Team Holly had already proved a box.
Thanks thanks, John looked amazing and the part in our first glorious Scottish wedding.
