Episode 1
Step behind the scenes to meet the dedicated team at the kilt shop on Sandy Row. Welcome to tartan central, a place where history, identity, community and family come together.
At the only kilt shop in Ireland, tradition and passion come together to create more than just garments - this team鈥檚 craft connects people to their heritage.
Run by Grahame Harris and his mother, Kim, this unique shop has become a go-to destination for Ulster-Scots communities, for whom the wearing of tartan is an outward celebration of identity. Whether it鈥檚 a wedding, a movie, a musical performance or even some last-minute interior design, if it鈥檚 tartan you need, then this dedicated team is here to help.
We meet Samir, a highly skilled tailor from Syria who is known for his precision, and the team鈥檚 youngest member, Claire, who seeks out every opportunity to learn more about this venerable craft and develop her skills.
This is a hectic year for the shop. Along with keeping their regular customers kitted out, the team prepares for an Ulster-Scots wedding, at which different family tartans take pride of place in a celebration to honour tradition and celebrate love. And Grahame is on hand to make the last-minute uniform adjustments for the Campbell College Pipe Band as they prepare for Burns Night festivities.
