Cochrane Hunting tartan
Hunting tartan of Clan Cochrane.
Registered by the 15th Earl of Dundonald in 2008 for informal, day-to-day wear. Its muted tones are meant to echo the effect of natural dyes, though the tartan itself is woven with modern dyeing methods.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Cochrane 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.
We are choosing retailers we trust and will list them here soon.

Our own Cochrane range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
