8 Yards (Haymarket) - Fantastic Service!
Had a great experience with the team at 8 Yards Edinburgh (Haymarket) getting kilts fitted for my wedding. They looked after me, my groomsmen, and my father-in-law and made the whole process really easy and relaxed.
Everyone was friendly, helpful, and made sure everything fit perfectly. The kilts looked brilliant on the day too.
Would definitely recommend them for wedding kilt hire as no matter the question they are very knowledgeable and more than willing to answer and help
Unfortunately this is a delayed review
Unfortunately this is a delayed review.
I bought 3 x bags in September as Christmas presents. One had marks all over it which was resolved however one of the others looked great and was a really appreciated present. Fast forward 4/5 uses the bag had totally fallen apart and I’m so embarrassed I gifted someone the bag!
Rented a kilt
Rented a kilt, jacket and full accessories for a friend's wedding. The quality of the rental was great and for someone with long arms and legs, the fit was great too! The drop off /pick up service was seamless. Would absolutely recommend.
Ordering from Eight Yards was sheer…
Ordering from Eight Yards was sheer perfection. It arrived to my home in the USA without any difficulty and in tip top condition. I highly recommend this website/shop for anything you might need or want from the UK.
Great quality, price and delivery
The quality of the Harris tweed dog collar was lovely. The price was fab. Delivery was really speedy.
Would you be able to do an extra large for Labrador size dogs? Absolutely love the collar!
Great service again
Quick and easy to get measured up after completing the order online. Very helpful and friendly staff.
friendly helpful and prompt
Great service, and a great kilt
Hired a kilt outfit for my daughters wedding from the Dalkeith branch.
Everything form initial meeting/fitting appointment to picking up the kilt and then returning after the wedding was so easy.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff with great customer service, with great prices and choice of tartans. I will certainly use again if I ever need another Kilt.
Can not fault the service I received
Can not fault the service I received, more so, due to the technical issues when placing the order.
I collected my order from Heymarket store and found the staff there very helpful and engaging.
I highly recommend 8Yards and will be back!
Awesome kilt
On recommendation of my brother who lives very close to the shop, I ordered an ex-hire kilt and I can’t believe how good the quality of the product is. No signs of wear whatsoever and they’ve obviously taken immense care of their products. Quick shipment to Australia when some of their competitors make it very difficult to order and ship even though their websites say that they do.
Will use again for sure as I’ve been eyeing up the Hebridean Fire kilt.
Thank you.
Excellent service
Excellent service and a speedy delivery. Ordered a tie for my father's funeral in his Scottish clan. Very good quality and now something to keep.
Absolutely amazing experience
Absolutely amazing experience, from the easy online ordering to the warm customer service I received when I got into town! Would very much use again for kilt hire and/or purchase
Pewter tankard
A more unusual tankard with glass base(taking the King's shilling).Not usually found in mainstream shops.
Quick delivery.
Never again
Ordered & paid for a Harris Tweed bag. Money taken, confirmation email received.
I thought great gift sorted. Then I receive an email advising that the website should not have allowed the sale to go through.
I was advised no alternative however days following the bag is still available to buy again
