Our first and legendary Kick Ass Kilt design was the Maxi!  With no fabric waste fresh from our looms, this kilt is not just a kilt, it’s a cape and a top half piece in one.  Designed to follow form, there is only one piece of hardware, the kilt strap and buckle with a 3-inch size range always.  Lets face it we all move up and down at little, and we hate those clothes that don’t go with flow….

All maxi’s are made to order, it fit’s better, so will be loved more and in time saves the planet and your purse….

My first time wearing this kilt, I wore it to work at a large company, whose knowledge of Scotland is thin, to celebrate Robbie Burns day. I got so many compliments & questions about Scotland!

Simply stunning!

It was pure joy opening my parcel as the care in which it was wrapped made the anticipation of seeing my kilt all the more breathtaking as it was revealed. The additional items were a lovely surprise … I feel I have purchased a piece of wearable art that will last me a lifetime. It fits me perfectly, looks fabulous & I shall wear it often! Thank you.

An Amazing Treasure

Whenever I want something of perfection I go to Prickly Thistle. I have never been disappointed.
The blanket I recently purchased was no exception. Perfect weave, perfect colors, perfect packaging…. Just a whole lot of love.

Soft Splash of Color

Black is my go-to coat color. But a scarf with some color brightens it up. This scarf has everything, softness, texture, color. Love it!

LAST Pink Thistle Slender Scarf
Prickly Thistle made a faux-Scot very happy.

I am loving myself sick in my Prickly Thickle Slender Scarf and am sporting it very proudly through wintery weather here in Melbourne, Australia. I love everything about it including the exchange I had with the team, pre-purchase, the exquisite packaging in which it arrived, and Prickly Thistles’ rallying cries for an ethical, sustainable and tartan-led future. I would gladly purchase from them again, and if I ever get back to Scotland, they will be on my itinerary!

The One

Such a beautiful and versatile belt - a great investment. Loving wearing it with jeans, work trousers and pirate pants too. Will be wearing it with my shorts too once the sun comes out. Don’t keep it for good - it will getter better with age 😁

Amazing

The lady’s are amazing and really friendly. I received my maxi kilt in a very quick time and it’s amazing! I have had so many compliments, told them where I got it and how amazing the product is.

VIR

Good morning Sister Rebels.....joining VIR just seemed to be the logical thing to do as the question it answered was NOT IF I was going to make another Thistle purchase but WHEN I would be doing it to further add to my existing treasured pieces. The program benefits (previews and bonuses) are just another example of how customer oriented Clare And the staff are. For me, joining VIR was as much a supporting decision as ro who this wonderful company is at its core as what is produces. Rebellious as ever, Marie Wolfson

Bad A@#$ Classy

I needed something that made a statement but was still elegant and classy for work and the rebel tee hit it. Something about the way the Tartan Lines shape and frame is so flattering. It's versatile too! I've paired it with a pencil skirt, jeans and leather pants.

It may be my go to travel top!

I'll definitely be splurging on Clare's designs more often! Also our trip to the mill was the highlight of our holiday. Even my 13 year old son was interested

Banner scarf ❤️

I recently was watching a program called “Men in kilts” while Sam & Graham wondered around Scotland they stopped at a wonderful business that is making tartan on a antiquated machine. I was amazed at the beauty of the tartan, and was also inspired to do a little sleuthing online. I was so happy to find Prickly Thistle. After looking around their web store I decided to purchase the banner scarf for my wife’s upcoming birthday. A short while later it arrived. She absolutely loved it! This scarf looks like it was made specifically for Quinn. Thanks so much for your amazing ethos and style, we hope to visit soon. Thanks again, cheers!

Give yourself some rocking elegance!

I have bought kilts from them before, but this one…the black elements maxi kilt is my absolute favorite. It makes me feel elegant, and yet bad ass enough to take on the world. Pretty amazing for just a piece of clothing!

Maxi Kilt X Limited Edition X Black Elements
Heirloom quality that will last a lifetime - and beyond!

Black Elements is a stunning tartan. The merino twill is tight, with an almost silky hand.

My first Black Elements purchase was the Maxi Kilt, and I loved the tartan so much that I quickly ordered the Blanket Scarf and the Slender Scarf in it as well.

Thank you, passionate rebels of Prickly Thistle! I applaud your mission to fill our closets with high quality, sustainable, and gorgeous, apparel. I am a most grateful customer! 💜

Gift Card

Good idea to by a gift card. I gifted it to myself. It is like a piggy-bank for a Rebel garment. I know and love the fabric and colours because I bought several scarfs, each in a different weaving style.
