Which tartan can you wear?

3:34 pm on the 15th of June, 2005

I went to get measured for a kilt today, which i’m getting for my 21st in October, so I’ve just spent the last half hour looking at tartan samples. According to this site I can wear either Forbes or Gordon, but the pictures on the site don’t seem to match up with the sample in the book so I went to google and came up with these results which are all pretty different. I particularly liked this result - is it some sort of sporran?

    I got the Forbes ancient, if that’s of any interest.

    Your gran always said we could wear the Urquart - I don’t know if that’s from her side though. But I think both Lordy and bodach have Urquart variations. If that’s of any interest.

    The RAF tartan can be worn by anyone who just likes the tartan. This tartan can be bought through the http://www.kamrafa.co.uk website. This tartan is also known as the Royal Air Force Tartan.

    The RAF Tartan looks really smart , if you contact the mail address or phone the number on the website they will be delighted to send you measurement forms and answer any issues you may have.

    We look forward to hearing from you.

    Is there a taran for the Coady name, early migrants to North America prior to the USA War of Independents?
