if you live in canada like i am, there is a official tartan for each province and teritory including one for canada itself
Alot of acottish ancestry and history in Canada
That blue is beautiful.
The Connecticut tartan is white because they taxed all the colors out of it.
There may be some interest in a Vietnam Veteran tartan. I would order one.
Wouldn't that... you know, lack lasting power?
I really like the Louisiana Tartan.
I didn’t know each state had a tartan that’s cool. My state of Iowa approved ours in 2004. Looks to Louisiana’s though which was approved in 2001.
Oklahoma has a State Tartan!! Huzzah!!
Missouri has the Show Me Tartan as well
2:45 I'm from Utah. I actually like that pattern
You guys are the best show NOT on T.V.. Seriously, I haven't turned on my tv in days. At work, I can't wait to get home to watch more of you guys. If I didn't hate reality T.V. so much, I'd say you should make a show. But seriously, if you made 30 min episodes where you took someone cool (an old Army vet, or famous football player or something like that), and helped him research his tartan, and thus, family history and set him up with a kilt, I'd pay $$$ to watch that. Maybe even a show where you help a veterans org design a tartan and present it to a national veterans org or something like that. Like Ed Lakin said below.... "There may be some interest in a Vietnam Veteran tartan. I would order one." Imagine what that would do for the kilted community? Just my random thoughts though.
My intent is acquire a kilt in the PA tartan just as soon as I can get back to visit the shop this summer.
Weirdly, Minnesota has a tartan in the official registry of tartans in Scotland, but has not been officially recognized by the state legislature.
Georgia has a beautiful tartan.
I have noticed that you both wear a bunch of different tartans in your videos. Is there limitations to what you can wear, or can you wear anything?
Basically no. There's a lot of hoopla talked but here are the facts. Prior to 1745 in Scotland only Highlanders wore tartan. But while each clan had its own weaves, these were not definitive. The indicator of clan identity was actually the 'plant badge' which was a sprig worn in the bonnet.
After the repeal of the Dress Act in 1782, which had banned the tartan, Lowlanders began wearing it and set up a register of tartans. Many of us regard that rather dubiously. I would certainly not let it stop me wearing a tartan I like. However, should you wish to go along with it, you can wear any of the modern tartans, many of which are attractive. If you are Scottish, in addition to your'name' tartan and the moderns you can wear the Stuart tartans and any regimental one. Black Watch is popular and very stylish imo. I much prefer it to my official name tartan, Murray. (Lowlanders don't have clans anyway.)
I'm hoping that once the transfer of the rights to the NH official tartan from the folding St Andrew's Society to NHSCOT settles out it'll available to more kiltmakers.
The state tartans you've designed are infinitely more attractive than any of the official ones. For those interested, Wikipedia has a list of tartans "adopted by law" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._state_tartans
I can’t find anywhere that sales kilts with the Texas blue bonnet tartan. Should I just keep asking around or just have a kilt made with the Texas tartan ?
Do you carry state tartans? Specifically Virginia?
So I looked on y'alls site but couldn't find a page for buying an Ohio state kilt, is one available
Maryland has it's own based on the state flag.
Where can we find the tartan designs?
I thought there is a NYS tartan? I wish you guys carried Arizona. If you made your own for that state, it would be interesting...
I have an Arizona tartan kilt. You have to get a custom run of fabric done. Not cheap, but they can do it for you.
Matthew Fox it would have to be a group deal. I’m surprised no one from the Caledonian society of AZ never did it.
Michigan would have two: Maize and Blue, (Wolverines) as well as Green and White.(Spartans)
As long as it isn't Red and White like that state down south.(Ohio Buckeyes)
Go SPARTY! (I'm the green sheep of the family)
Indiana! Get your rear in gear!
What is the Official Tartan of people whose favorite deli meat is boloney?
Black Watch
haha your business comes closer to having my clan tartan than just about every other kilt supplier, but still no dice... no hard feelings, though, its uncommon, so i've given up on finding it - despite the fact that it is in the scottish national tartan registry...
my clans tartan is similar to "blackwatch" - but um... no, im not gonna wear that shit... my family was kinda on the other side of that conflict...
If it's in the Tartan Register, we can always have it custom woven!
Is a tartan the plaid pattern?
Yes it's what we call plaid in uk
A states tartan - ha ha ha ha ha never heard anything so silly!
Skirts are for girls, do they have mini skirt kilts ?
Haha oh yes and they look great lol. I've even seen Thai girls wearing 'em!
You asked which states have tartans, but didn't give the answer! Boo! I'm sorry, but I am compelled to give a "thumbs down," although it grieved me to do so.
