Graham of Menteith tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Graham.
The sett of the western, Menteith branch. The Register says it first appeared in 1819 under the name 'Cobourg' and was published as a Graham tartan by James Logan in 1831. Logan himself later admitted that its antiquity was questionable.

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