    The colours are custom. They don't fit into the standardized colour scheme. I can send you a swatch if you care to PM me with your address.

    There is a khaki or tan base with claret/wine overstripes. dark olive green, slate grey and light grey form the next section of the sett, and two threads of the dark olive green surround a thin stripe of ecru or off-white.

    I really love this tartan this is the 3rd kilt I've made in it I'm glad you like it Matt.

    Wow, at first glance, I didn't think that I would like the tartan.

    Then I saw the green hose and sweater combo and wow.. Just wow, well done!!

    Is that a watch chain hanging from your sporran? I wear a pocket watch and have yet to find a convenient place for it when kilted. Yes, I know I could wear a vest. What exactly have you devised?

    And the tartan is beautiful. The ladies will be giving you the eye, or I am very much mistaken.

    Thanks Bud,
    No it's not a watch chain. It's a chain and pin to hold the sporran closed. Here is a link to the sporran it's a better pic
