Rollo tartan
Clan tartan of Clan Rollo.
The Register calls this an asymmetric sett and says it was recorded in the Lyon Court Book on 5 October 1984. It notes that the woven samples do not follow any of the documented counts, and that a note in the Scottish Tartans Authority's records says it was woven at the request of the late Lord Rollo in 1946.

Get the kilt
When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “Rollo” — and say which colourway you want. “Modern” is dark and strong, “ancient” is lighter, “weathered” is muted. The sett is the same in each.
