Hannay Dress tartan
Dress tartan of Clan Hannay.
The Register says this came from a specimen said to have been supplied around 1980. It adds that this may be a dance pattern rather than an official dress tartan for the family.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Hannay Dress” — 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 Hannay range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
