    That's actually the Ulster Weathered tartan, so named because the well-preserved remains of a ca. 1600 Scottish fighting man were pulled from a bog in Ulster some years back, wearing that particular sett. So, the tartan is early, but it's not really an authentic garment because it's a tailored Matt Newsome box-pleated kilt! I cheated and wore it because I'm currently waiting for the actual 18th C. style philabeg that Matt will be sewing for me in a couple of months' time....
