As another MacLean on here, this is good to know! I was fortunate enough to get a red MacLean kilt on here and I do have in mind to get a kilt in the hunting tartan at some point but perhaps that should be sooner then later.

Is there generally a preference for 'ancient' vs. 'modern' versions?

In regards to the MacLean gathering in 2012, my mother's been talking about getting the family over there for it, so perhaps we'll all meet over in Mull.

Cheers,
Noah
