    That's actually the tartan of the Canadian Irish regiment, and you won't find it listed on tartan registers under the O'Saffron name. It's a sort of sheperd's plaid, i.e. more of a check than a tartan, in green and saffron. There is a similar registered tartan called Special Saffron, but the proportions of green and saffron are different.

    There is a "Canadian Irish Regiment" on the SRT at ...

    I think it is the tartan under discussion. You can click on the picture of the tartan to see a bigger picture and more information, and you can do that again to see an even bigger picture! Enjoy, and good luck.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Thanks for the input, everyone. I'll let you all know when I make my decision, and I'll post up pictures once I get it (I should probably also post pictures of my UKs for you guys).

    And, we'll all be eagerly awaiting the pictures, whatever you decide.
