Scottish Highland Wears

Scottish Highland Wears refers to the distinctive traditional clothing of
Scotland, most commonly associated with Highland dress. These garments are
worn for ceremonial events, national celebrations, Highland games,
weddings, and by pipe bands. The style reflects centuries of Scottish
culture, clan heritage, and symbolism.

Here’s a breakdown of the main elements of Highland Wear:

1. Kilt

The most iconic garment, made of woolen tartan cloth.

Worn pleated at the back, flat at the front.

Each tartan often represents a clan, family, or region.

2. Sporran

A pouch worn at the front of the kilt (since kilts have no pockets).

Comes in leather (daywear) or fur/silver (formal dress).

Different types depending on the occasion:

Argyll Jacket (semi-formal/day wear)

Prince Charlie Jacket (formal/evening wear, with waistcoat)

Tweed Jacket (casual/highland day wear)

4. Shirt & Tie

White dress shirt or ghillie shirt (looser with laces).

Ties, bow ties, or even cravats depending on formality.

5. Footwear

Ghillie Brogues (traditional shoes without tongues, long laces tied around
the ankles).

Worn with long kilt hose (woolen socks) and flashes (colored garters).

6. Headwear

Pipe bands may also wear feather bonnets.

7. Plaid & Brooch

A long piece of tartan cloth draped over the shoulder.

Secured with a decorative brooch for ceremonial dress.

Wide leather belt with ornate buckle, often engraved with Celtic or clan
symbols.
