Like always your great stuff is amazing 🤩. Thank you so much for your wonderful work for nature and humans. Love from Germany. Gabi
When I saw an exhibition at the Design Museum of wartime inspired fabric covered in slogans I wondered where the textile designs of today are to deliver the climate crisis message (apart from slogan T-shirts) so when I heard of the climate tartan I knew it was just what I was looking for. I will be wearing an outfit made from it when I take part in Dorset’s COP. It is truly a work of art in itself and I will ensure I don’t waste any of it.
Please accept my thanks for the way you conduct your business. I would be happy to recommend you to anyone this side of the Atlantic. Best wishes and thanks again
My partner treated his daughter & I toma surprise visit to Rebel Row. We met Clare, who told us all about how Prickly Thistle started & then about Rebel Row. Susan also looked after us & we were shown the different garments & tried several on whilst drinking prosecco & eating nibbles! Lovely experience & great that Clare had a dream that has been fulfilled as well as being sustainable. I would thoroughly recommend a visit. You will be warmly welcomed ☺️
PricklyThistle has everything to offer, starting with the ethos of the company and moving all the way up to the incredible clothing. I love it all and VIR membership is the perfect way to support and stay connected with PT, building up some funds to ensure I can keep investing in these wonderful garments.
I have three scarves from Prickly Thistle & purchased a 4th for my mother. The creativity, quality, color & attention to detail are 2nd to none. You will love yours too!!
After purchasing 2 amazing pieces of clothing online last year, I was thrilled to be able to take the tour and meet Claire and the team. So great to see the spirit and joy of creating individual products that last. Thank you for sharing your inspiration and love for highland history. My kilt kept me warm on my amazing journey and I shared its origin as I travelled around in its comfort. It was a privilege to experience. 🇦🇺

I was so fortunate to meet Clare, tour the mill and buy my coat there last September, 2023. So, when this key became available I jumped on it. It is packaged with thought to sustainability and humor and was delivered quickly to the U.S. I am more than pleased!
I received my keyring and love it.
