Anderson Dress tartan
Dress tartan of Clan Anderson.
This sett comes from the old Scottish Tartans Society archive, folded into the Register when it was set up. The Register records no date for it and gives no further history.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Anderson Dress” — and say which colourway you want. “Modern” is dark and strong, “ancient” is lighter, “weathered” is muted. The sett is the same in each.
We are choosing retailers we trust and will list them here soon.
Wear the colours
Our own Anderson range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
