MacGillivray Hunting tartan
Hunting tartan of Clan MacGillivray.
The Register gives no date. Its threadcount comes from Jamie Scarlett's 'The Tartans of Clan Chattan' (2002), and the sett is said to be at least 30 years old.

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 “MacGillivray 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 MacGillivray range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
