Livingstone tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Livingstone.
The Register records this sett from W & A K Johnston's The Tartans of the Clans and Septs of Scotland (1906), with no firmer date. It is a plain pattern of green and red.
Thread count
G/28 R8 G4 R4 G4 R8 G38 R60 G4 R/18Each letter is a colour and each number a count of threads. The slashes mark the pivots: the pattern runs to the end, then reverses back on itself.
Colours
- G — Mod Green
- R — Red
Shades follow the Register's palette for this entry. Woven cloth varies by mill and by colourway.
Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Livingstone” — 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 Livingstone range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
