    The top one is Hunting Stewart. The other two are very familiar but I'll have to look them up because I can't remember their names!

    I think the bottom one is Old Stewart.

    The first kilts label bears a Edinburgh telephone number, (in the old style) A google search for the House of Kilt Making, Edinburgh, brings up:

    Head office is situated on Edinburgh?s Royal Mile, next to Edinburgh Castle

    I can't help you with the tartans. Maybe if you would post them in the "tartan place" section of the forum, the tartan encyclopedias might add their knowledge faster.

    The maker/seller of the second kilt is written in the picture.
    Hugh Macpherson
    Highland Outfitters
    17 West Maitland Street
    Edinburgh

    Near Haymarket.
    I think they changed location and this is their new website.
    Creagdubh might know more about them.

    Nice Kilts by the way

    The maker of the middle kilt (sorry can't ID the tartan) is Hugh MacPherson of West Maitland Street Edinburgh. If you google Hugh MacPherson the third item from my search comes up with a 2010 X Marks thread which gives a lot of interesting information. X Marks members making contributions included creagdhubh and ThistleDown. You wish to contact these members.
