Verity of Merchandise
 

Since 1996 the Kilt & Thistle has built it's reputation on importing and selling Scottish Quality merchandise at reasonable prices. This establishes the main premise for our business “ true value” . Over the years the introduction of Scottish style merchandise imported from China and Pakistan entered the market. The worst proliferation being in Scotland itself. We were not unaware of this merchandise, but the quality remained well below the standard we set for you, our customer. Junk is still junk at any price. However this last year because of the economic downturn we listened to you, asking for merchandise that fit the tighter budget. We went in search of merchandise that we would wear and be proud to sell. We found our Great Value Line and our new Scotia Bay brand  of merchandise.
I am the first to tell you that this merchandise is not from Scotland. Much of the merchandise now sold in Scotland was not made in Scotland. Some companies will present it as Scottish, or companies over here say “ imported from Scotland”, but imported from Scotland is not “made in Scotland”. Just as many will describe their kilts as 100% wool, but miss telling you what weight of wool it is.

Our three lines are as follows, our Kilt & Thistle Premium Line, comprised of merchandise actually made in Scotland or of Scottish quality such as L&M Highland Outfitters the makers of our Premium Line of sporrans and leather items. This merchandise is made in Nova Scotia , but is frankly as good or better than anything any Scottish sporran maker ever put out.

Our Scotia Bay Line is imported at our request and to our specifications. The closest to Scottish quality we could get outside of our Premium Line suppliers. The quality is a high quality product that competes with our Kilt & Thistle Premium Line , but with a more favorable price.

Our Great Value Line is exactly that , a great value. A budget line that looks to solve the budget problems of the young gent just getting started in life, or the budget minded individual that wants to wear Scottish apparel , but just does not have the budget to step up to premium Scottish merchandise.
What ever line you choose , we will work with you on your purchase as if it was us or our best friend, because the goal is to have you as a “customer for life”.
