    Identifying a couple of tartans on eBay kilt listings

    Hi - I'm occasionally shopping eBay for kilts and wondered if somebody could take a look at a couple of listings to ID the tartans.

    First looks to my amateur eye looks like "Stewart/Stuart, Royal #2" (name from Scottish Registry) https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Red...gAAOSwnqZcfueT

    The other I have no clue https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Blu...AAAOSw5E1cfuNG

    Thanks! Tommy

    Royal Stewart and Stewart Navy. Basically the same Tartan with a different background color.

    Looks to be the older style loose weave 10oz.

    Stewart Navy? It's MacBeth which has been around since the 180s.
