I am of clan Gregor, and as such, I have always worn the two MacGregor tartans.. those being MacGregor green and red, and MacGregor red and black (also known as the Rob Roy tartan). Lately, though, I have been "branching out" and wearing other tartans.. I have even ordered two tanks (one in Blackwatch and one in Pride of Scotland) from Scotland Yard. I continue to be amazed at the beauty of the various tartans and Royal Stewart is quite awesome.

This thread has shown the beauty of an, as yet, unknown tartan. But, I'd wear it in a kilt because I like the colour arrangement.

How do you all feel about tartan? Should people stick to "authorised" tartans or is it ok to wear a "fashion" tartan in a kilt? Are there "rules" on this or is it a case of "wear what makes you happy"

Just curious,
Ian MacGregor
