The Clan Johnstone Modern Tartan Kilt carries the name of one of the mightiest clans of the Scottish Borders. The Johnstones of Annandale were a fierce riding family of Dumfriesshire, wardens of the West March who held the frontier through centuries of border warfare, their chiefs rising to become Marquesses of Annandale. Woven in the rich Modern colouring, this kilt gives that hard Border history a deep, confident form.
The sett runs on a ground of dark green and navy blue crossed by black, lifted with a fine, bright yellow overcheck. The Modern palette keeps the greens and blues deep and saturated, a strong, classic Highland base, while the single golden line runs clear through it — handsome and unmistakable.
It suits weddings, gatherings and daywear alike. Pair it with a tweed kilt jacket, add a leather sporran, and draw the green through with a set of kilt hose.
Wear it for the occasion, or because the name is yours.
