  • We were at Kilt Rock on the Isle of Skye where we learned how a Highlander would make his kilt. We weren't with this Rabbies tour group but the tour guide welcomed us to join in on his demonstration. He was really a lot of fun. We all kind of wished we had been on his tour. The music you hear is the Skye Boat Song by The Lions Rampant.

    This guy is fabulous. He's got the real highlander sense of humour, i absolutely love it .
    Does his bum look big in this, is the line my grandfather always used when he put on a kilt, and it always made me laugh to tears.
    This is how a kilt should be worn, and i don't mean the technique, but the attitude.

    One of the single best items to wear. A wee bit chilly when it's cold and windy but in the summer when it's blazing hot, pure heaven!

    An Arisaid. I've been trying to find a video on how to pleat and wear the ladies version of the kilt, now I even know what it's actually called too. Awesome.😁

    I have heard this was how it was done but have never seen a demonstration. Very interesting. I like to see men in kilts but I am also glad that due to extreme weather conditions, men and women can choose to wear pants/slacks.

      He's means that not all had red hair. But indeed a lot were more dark. Some people seem to thing every Scot used to have red hair. But that's bollocks...

    How taught you that’s how it’s tied over the shoulder?

  • @margaretdavis8207
    @margaretdavis8207 Před 4 lety

    That's how my ancestor's wore their kilts, and they didn't have pants to keep their jewels warm either.

  • @hbrhodes1s
    @hbrhodes1s Před 4 lety +1

    What length is the original garment, all laid out? Feet or meters?

    • @OldNavajoTricks
      @OldNavajoTricks Před 3 lety +1

      A Great kilt like that would be around eight, or as the saying goes... 'The full nine yards...' for a ample lad.
      But you also get a smaller, five yard version which is more common these days, as are utility kilts.

  • @olgaval5244

    Is the kilt only men's clothes?

    • @marierothwell5848
      @marierothwell5848 Před 5 lety

      I think they say 9 yards

    • @diannabowen3868
      @diannabowen3868 Před 5 lety

      anywhere from 5 to 9 yards depending on how many pleats and about 45" or so wide...

      Usually 1.5 m large by 6m long. But it can be 9 m long. Source : Fandabi Dozi

    I, the Scottish Plaid. if you tuck it in at the backside , your pockets will be larger and things won't fall out of them.i think you need a wee bit practice.

  • @AllCanadiaReject

    Would be more helpful if you didn't speed up some of the stuff like the pockets and maybe filmed from the front.

    So if the highlanders had black hair and blue eyes, it must have been the lowlanders who had red hair. Interesting.

    • @luissantiago8446
      @luissantiago8446 Před 3 lety

      The culture of the Highlanders was quite distinctive from the lowlands and those in the cities. During the 18th century, when Boswell toured the Highlands, he commented on how the Highlanders spoke "That Irish tongue!"
