Belt & Buckle: The kilt belt provides a finished look to the top of the kilt. They are typically fairly wide - usually 2 - ¼” - and generally come in black leather. Buckles come in various finishes and designs, and are sold separately. |

Sporran: A Sporran is the Gaelic word for pouch or purse. Sporrans come in a very wide range of styles, from simple leather sporrans to those with fur fronts or fur-trimmed and faced with silver, chrome, or some other metal. Often, the kilt wearer will chose a type of sporran depending on the occasion, with the more elaborate ones being considered suitable for evening wear and the others for casual or all-purpose wear.
The sporran is typically suspended from a sporran strap which is a narrow belt (separate from the kilt belt) made of leather and chain. Chain straps are included with all sporrans. |

Hose: Kilt hose, made of wool or Acrylic or some combination thereof is available in a variety of solid colors so as to match any tartan pattern. They can also be found in diced patterns, or argyll hose. This is common for Highland dancers. |
| Garter Flashes: Adjustable elastic garters are available in plains colours of ribbon or wool two tone with your kilt or tartan to perfectly match your kilt. |
 |
Jewelry: Kilt pins are available with crests or in a variety of finishes and designs. |
 |
Sgian Dubh: A small knife called a Sgian Dubh is often worn tucked into the top of the kilt hose which is commonly worn with the kilt. The use of traditional Scottish weapons as part of Highland dress is common, including the sgian dubh worn in a hose top, and the ceremonial dirk suspended from the waist belt. |
 |
Footwear: Ghillies, or Ghillie Brogues, are a type of shoe with laces along the instep and no tongue. Although now worn for special events, ghillies originated as a shoe that would dry quickly due to the lack of a tongue, and not get stuck in the mud because of their laces above the ankle. |
