8 Yards was formally known as The Kilt Hire Co we began hiring & selling kilts in 1991, in the town of Musselburgh, on the East coast of Scotland. Our first premises were in one of the town's smallest shops, so small you could touch both walls at once!Our reputation for keen pricing and commitment to excellent customer service quickly grew, with regular customers coming back time and time again to both hire and buy. Since those early days, we have expanded and moved premises three times in Musselburgh before finally settling in our very successful Bridge Street site.
