Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Carnegie (No. 3)” — 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 Carnegie range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
