My understanding is that the traditional Irish saffron kilt is an absolutely plain fabric, but the Stillwater website describes their saffron as having the "hidden tartan" design - which I do not care for. I have long had a hidden tartan kilt in black wool in the Kollection, but I have very seldom worn it.
So does the super saffron kilt we are all seeing and admiring have the hidden tartan weave or not? I should really like to know, before following the temptation!
Ham,
The SWK Irish Saffron has that "shadow tartan." I had one of these, but unfortunately returned it because it did not fit me well. I loved the color, and the shadow tartan is not visable until you are very close to the kilt with the light hitting it just right.
