MacAlister of Glenbarr Hunting tartan
Hunting tartan of Clan MacAlister.
The hunting companion to the Glenbarr sett, with olive brown and blue in place of purple and red. It comes from the same 1989 swatches supplied by the 5th Laird of Glenbarr.

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