Our vintage Weight for Height Lift Pewter Athlete Pin makes the perfect gift for the Scottish athlete in your life. Hand cast in Inverness in 1998 by a traditional pewtersmith, the figure is part of a large collection of original vintage pins we were lucky enough to secure. Now 25 years old, this fantastic piece has exceptional detail due to the level of craftsmanship used. We have a very limited number of the pins, and once they sell out, they are gone forever. The pin measures 1.75 inches tall and comes with a metal pinback for secure display. A County Argyle exclusive!
A staple of Highland Games around the world, the Scottish Weight for Height challenges athletes to toss a 56-pound weight over an overhead cross bar. The athlete uses a single hand and must throw from a standing position. Three tries are allowed. The bar height rises each round until only a single athlete remains. The best athletes can toss the weight more than 18 feet in the air.
