RW Stevens - Skirving Street
For over sixty years, RW Stevens & co has been located on the corner of Skirving Street and Deanston Drive. Throughout this time this family run business has provided the surrounding communities with school and club uniforms carrying uniforms for 28 schools including Hutchesons' Grammar, St Aloysius and Fernhill.
We've been in a couple of times now and they've been incredibly friendly and helpful each time and Mr Davie who runs the place is a mine of local knowledge. He talked me through a selection of old photographs on the wall showing how the street look nearly a hundred years ago. It looked hugely wide thanks to an abscence of cars.
Along with Kilts, jackets and shirts they also carry good selection of kilt accessories, such as sporrans, kilt pins, belts etc which make really good gifts. If you've not got your own kilt they also hire full highland dress, as well as dinner suits and morning suits.

On top of all that they also offer a valet service for your kilts and suits and a repair and alteration service.
The company displays the original signage which was used back in the 50's and is well worth a trip just to have a look. It's become an iconic image, often photographed and seen on blogs, photography websites and flickr accounts.
