The Macleod of Harris tartan pattern has a long history and can be found in early collections such as Logan's "The Scottish Gael" (1831) and Smibert's work from 1850. The design originated from the MacKenzie tartan that was used by John MacKenzie, also known as Lord MacLeod, in 1777 when he formed a regiment called "Lord MacLeod's Highlanders." The MacLeod family claimed to be the heirs of the last chief of Lewis, Rodderick, who passed away in 1595. In 1910, the tartan was officially approved by Chief Norman Magnus, the 26th Chief, and later adopted by the Clan Society.
When ordering a kilt, please note that the sizing is different from pants or jeans. Kilts are worn over the belly, so it's important to measure your waistline all around at the point of your belly button area. If your measurement falls between two available sizes, we recommend selecting the larger size for a comfortable fit. Please keep in mind that you cannot order based on your pants or jeans size when it comes to kilts.
Finding the perfect tartan that represents your Scottish heritage can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Whether you're looking to represent your family, clan, or just want to celebrate Scottish culture, there are plenty of options to choose from. In this blog, we'll explore some ways to find the perfect tartan for yourself.
The first and easiest way to find your tartan is to start with your surname or clan name. There are numerous online resources available that can help you find your tartan based on your family name. The Scottish Register of Tartans is a great place to start, as it contains a comprehensive list of tartans and their associated clans and surnames.
If you don't have a specific family or clan tartan, consider exploring tartan patterns that are meaningful to you. The Black Watch tartan, for example, is a popular tartan that represents the Scottish military regiment of the same name. The Pride of Scotland tartan is another popular option that is often worn to celebrate Scottish heritage.
If you want to represent Scottish culture as a whole, consider looking for national tartans. The Scottish National Tartan, for example, is a popular tartan that is often worn to celebrate Scotland's national identity. Similarly, the Irish National Tartan represents Irish heritage.
If you have Irish heritage, consider exploring tartans that are linked to Ireland, such as the Heritage of Ireland tartan or the Irish Traditional tartan. Likewise, if you have Scottish and Irish heritage, you can consider tartans that represent both cultures.
One of the best ways to explore tartans and find the perfect one for yourself is to visit local Scottish shops and events. You can talk to experts and enthusiasts who can guide you in the right direction and provide you with invaluable advice on selecting the perfect tartan.
