Grant tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Grant.
The red Grant sett as it is usually woven. The Register traces it to the 'New Bruce' pattern in the 1819 Key Pattern Book of Wilsons of Bannockburn, and notes that Clan Drummond wears the same tartan.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Grant” — 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.
