The kilt was designed by young award-winning designer Siobhan Mackenzie, from the Black Isle, and woven at the House of Edgar factory in Keith, with the men’s kilts being hand made in Paisley. The Scottish team will be wearing authentic Scottish tartan, a fantastic example of the quality produced in Scotland’s fashion and textiles industries.
