The side of the shield consists of two halved evergreen trees as found everywhere in Kippens. At the base, three rhythmical waves symbolise the landforms, fields and open spaces, and the various bodies of water surrounding the town. In the upper portion of the shield, three bands, denoting completeness, echo the waves and symbolise sunshine (yellow), the sky (blue-green), and sunsets (red) respectively. | The side of the shield consists of two halved evergreen trees as found everywhere in Kippens.

Left and right of center, behind the red `residential' shapes, are two rather prominent white structures. The left one represents the characteristic mountain panorama of Kippens which is most impressive when snow-covered while the other shows the limestone cliffs above Romaine's River. | Left and right of center, behind the red `residential' shapes, are two rather prominent white structures.
