Kilt Socks UK – Traditional Style with a Comfy Twist

At Kiltsocks.co.uk, we believe the perfect Highland outfit starts from the ground up — and that means the right pair of kilt socks.

We’re owned and operated by Endrick Trading Ltd, a family-run business based in the rural village of Balfron, near Stirling in Central Scotland. Since 2005, we’ve been passionate about supplying specialist Scottish products that combine traditional style with modern comfort. Alongside kiltsocks.co.uk, we run haggisuk.co.uk — all celebrating Scotland’s heritage, craftsmanship, and warm hospitality.

Over the years, we’ve partnered with the best names in the business, including the world-renowned House of Cheviot, to offer an extensive range of luxury kilt socks and hose. Whether you’re looking for traditional cream hose, modern dark styles, or wide calf kilt socks for a better fit, you’ll find them here — at the best affordable prices online, with free UK delivery on orders over £30.

Why We Started Kilt Socks UK

We began for three simple reasons:

1. More choice in colour and style – Most hire companies only supply plain white (or ecru) kilt socks. They’re fine, but many people want to match their socks to their tartan, their wedding colours, or simply their own style.
2. Better value – Buying kilt socks on their own used to be expensive. We wanted to make quality kilt hose accessible without the inflated price tag.
3. Quick, easy service – We know how stressful preparing for an event can be. That’s why we keep stock ready to go, with same-day dispatch if you order before 1pm.

We’re here to make it easy to buy kilt socks online without paying over the odds or waiting weeks for delivery.

How to Wear Kilt Socks

Traditionally, kilt hose are worn above the calf, folded over at the top, and held in place with flashes (garters). A sgian dubh is usually tucked into the right sock, unless you’re left-handed.

For a contemporary look, many people pair their kilt socks with boots instead of Ghillie brogues and push the socks slightly lower on the calf. This gives a more relaxed style while still keeping the Highland spirit.

Choosing the Right Colour

Kilt socks come in a wide range of colours, and the general rule is to match or complement your tartan. For daytime events, plain shades are ideal; for formal wear, cream or tartan hose are most common.

In recent years, black hose and darker tones like charcoal, ancient blue, and ancient green have become popular for a more modern look. One rule we stand by: never wear plain white socks — unless you’re in a pipe band!
