When tradition meets precision craftsmanship, the result is more than an accessory—it becomes a symbol of honor. The aiguillette is one of the most distinguished ceremonial uniform elements, worn with pride across military, band, police, and ceremonial institutions worldwide. At Skylarkinfantry, we design and manufacture premium-quality aiguillettes that represent authority, heritage, and excellence.
If you’re searching for a durable, elegant, and regulation-compliant aiguillette, you’re in the right place. This guide explains everything you need to know about our product—materials, craftsmanship, usage, and why Skylarkinfantry stands apart.
What Is an Aiguillette?
An aiguillette is a braided cord worn on the shoulder of uniforms, typically featuring metal tips known as aglets. Historically, it has symbolized rank, appointment, and ceremonial responsibility. Today, it remains a key decorative and functional component in:
- Military ceremonial uniforms
- Honor guards
- Marching bands
- Police and security forces
- Formal parade attire
- Institutional dress uniforms
The right aiguillette enhances uniform presentation and communicates authority instantly.
Why Choose a Skylarkinfantry Aiguillette?
At Skylarkinfantry, we don’t treat the aiguillette as just another accessory. We understand its ceremonial importance and the pride associated with wearing it. That’s why our product stands out in several critical areas:
1. Premium Braided Construction
Our aiguillettes are crafted using high-tensile, colorfast cords that maintain their structure and elegance over time. The braiding is dense, symmetrical, and professionally finished to ensure:
- Long-lasting durability
- Resistance to fraying
- Consistent shine
- Professional-grade appearance
2. High-Quality Metal Aglets
Each aiguillette is finished with polished metal tips that resist tarnishing and corrosion. These aglets are securely fastened, ensuring they stay intact during ceremonies and extended use.
3. Authentic Design Standards
Our aiguillettes follow traditional military and ceremonial styling standards. Whether you need gold, silver, white, or custom variations, Skylarkinfantry maintains precise detailing that aligns with official uniform requirements.
4. Comfort and Fit
A ceremonial uniform should look sharp—but it should also feel comfortable. Our aiguillette design ensures:
- Balanced shoulder placement
- Secure attachment points
- Lightweight feel without compromising durability
The Craftsmanship Behind Every Aiguillette
Creating a premium aiguillette requires more than braiding cords together. At Skylarkinfantry, our production process includes:
- Careful material selection
- Precision machine and hand braiding
- Secure stitching reinforcement
- Quality inspection before packaging
Every aiguillette undergoes strict quality control to ensure it meets professional standards. We understand that ceremonial wear reflects discipline and honor, and we take that responsibility seriously.

We provide various aiguillette styles to meet different institutional and ceremonial needs:

Where Is an Aiguillette Worn?
An aiguillette is typically worn:
- On the right shoulder (in many military traditions)
- Attached to epaulets or shoulder boards
- Fastened through uniform loops or button systems
Proper placement is essential to maintaining uniform regulations. Skylarkinfantry designs each aiguillette to be easy to attach and secure during wear.

Investing in a quality aiguillette saves money long-term by avoiding frequent replacements.
