The Clan Buchanan Hunting Tartan Kilt carries the name of a clan whose lands lay along the eastern shore of Loch Lomond in Stirlingshire. The Buchanans trace their origins to the 13th century, taking their name from the district of Buchanan, and their bright dress tartan is one of the most colourful in Scotland. This is its quieter cousin — the Hunting sett, made in the deeper tones a Highlander would once have worn for the hill.
The sett runs on a ground of dark green and rich maroon-brown, crossed by black and lifted with fine overchecks of yellow, white and red. Where the dress Buchanan shouts, the Hunting version speaks softly — earthy, warm and grounded, the colours of woodland and autumn moor.
It suits country weddings, daywear and outdoor gatherings. Pair it with a tweed kilt jacket, add a leather sporran, and pull the green through with a set of kilt hose.
Wear it for the occasion, or because the name is yours.

Elspeth Wallace –
I wore the Clan Buchanan Hunting Tartan Kilt to a family gathering and it drew so many compliments. Strong stitching, heavy fabric, and a real sense of pride wearing it.
