Hannay tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Hannay.
The Register says this sett was recorded in the Lyon Court Books on 19 December 1984 by Ramsay Hannay, chief of the name. It gives 1788 as the date, which fits the old kilt noted under Hannay Blue.

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