Hackles

Hackles & Plumes – Distinctive Headdress Emblems The Hackle & Plume Collection at Military Direct pays tribute to the time-honoured traditions of British military and ceremonial uniform. Used by infantry, highland regiments, fusiliers and bands, hackles (short clipped coloured feathers) and plumes (longer sprays of feather or horse-hair) express regimental identity, pride and heritage. Each piece is crafted to parade-standard specification: feathers or hair dyed to exact regimental colours, mounted onto wired stems or wires suitable for glengarries, feather bonnets, busbies, or other traditional headdress. Whether for Full Dress, ceremonial parade, pipe-bands or display, these headdress embellishments ensure the correct look and heritage of the uniform is maintained. Features Mad
