Pollock tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Pollock.
This is the clan society's own design, developed from the Maxwell hunting sett with a white line in place of green. The Register credits Rhys A. Pollock with the design details and thinks J.C. Thomson of Arlington had a large hand in it. It also warns that the recorded thread count differs noticeably from the woven samples.

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 “Pollock” — 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.
