Rich NATA Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Anyone know where I can get a Glengarry refurbished? Just need to smarten it up with a new rosette/cockcade and a new Toorie on top (for mine has faded a wee bit). I used Robert Mackie's in Ayrshire a few years back, but they're unable to do it this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their exact words to me were, "Sorry but the department closed down in January". Sad to hear. I used them a few years back and I received excellent service.

fringo Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I'd recommend getting a bucket hat instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich NATA Posted July 5, 2023 Author Share Posted July 5, 2023 I was recently reprimanded for the Glengarry. Told if I was so in favour of independence I shouldn't be wearing it; I should be wearing a blue bunnet. I believe Bannockburn House handmake them. Have no idea where else I can get one.

aaid Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 (edited) I understand that House of Tartan in Crieff are taking over the production of balmorals and glengarries from Mackies but they will take them several months to get going. Might be worth contacting them. Edited July 5, 2023 by aaid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
