The County Tyrone Tartan Kilt wears the tartan of one of Ulster’s proudest counties. Tyrone — Tir Eoghain, “the land of Owen” — was the heartland of the great O’Neill dynasty, high kings and earls whose story runs through the whole history of Gaelic Ireland. Like Ireland’s other county tartans, it lets those with Tyrone roots wear their home in Highland-style dress, at home or across the diaspora.
The sett is warm and distinctive: a deep red ground softened with cream and green, and crossed by fine black lines. The cream lifts the red to a mellow, earthy glow, giving the cloth a character all its own — rich and countryish rather than loud.
It suits weddings, St Patrick’s Day and gatherings of every kind. Wear it with an Argyll kilt jacket, add a leather sporran, and pick out the red or green with a set of kilt hose.
A county tartan for Tyrone, wherever its people have settled.
