The Clan Tara Murphy Tartan Kilt carries the most Irish of names. Murphy — from Ó Murchadha, “descendant of the sea-warrior” — is the single most common surname in all of Ireland, borne by families from Wexford to Cork and across the whole diaspora. Paired with the name of Tara, the ancient seat of the High Kings, this is a tartan for anyone who wants to wear their Irish roots with pride.
The sett is warm and earthy: a bright green ground crossed by bands of rust-brown, with fine overchecks of red, gold and white threading through. The green is unmistakably Irish, the brown gives it a grounded, countryish depth, and the warm lines keep the whole cloth lively — a rich, characterful design.
It suits weddings, St Patrick’s Day and gatherings of every kind. Wear it with an Argyll kilt jacket, add a leather sporran, and draw the green through with a set of kilt hose.
A tartan for the Murphy name, wherever it is worn.
