Brodie Hunting tartan
Hunting tartan of Clan Brodie.
A Brodie Hunting appears in J Claude's Clans Originaux of 1880. The Register cites D W Stewart, who in 1893 wrote that Brodies living in Gordon and Forbes country wore it as a district tartan before some adopted it as their own.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Brodie Hunting” — and say which colourway you want. “Modern” is dark and strong, “ancient” is lighter, “weathered” is muted. The sett is the same in each.
