Just ordered my first kilt......

The MacTavish's claim that the Campbells are a sept of their clan. They have a huge list of septs. The Thompson Tartan is a good looking tartan. The tan Thompson tartan is said to be the inspiration for the Burberry.

Welcome to the forum, I am also a member of the nine yard club.

Oh, well unless you know of another, I meant YOU were the other MacTavish. I don't have any affiliation (that I know of anyway.)

Ahh...I see.

Yes, I agree that the Thompson and MacTavish tartans are all great looking. My personal favorite is MacTavish(Thompson Red).

I've not heard that CampBell was a sept of MacTavish, although I have heard it the other way, since the progenator of MacTavish is the son of the progenator of Campbell. Any other historians care to chime in?

I looked at the Thomson tartans and have grown up with them being 'my tartans', however, I felt the dress blue is just a little too bright for a kilt of my dimensions , the camel and Burberry link rules that out (Burberry has a very bad image in the UK), the hunting just doesn't float my boat and the grey is, well, grey and boring IMHO.

So I was delighted to find the MacTavish tartans!

I felt the same way.
