The Tartan is a custom weave created for the tournament.
"It took until 1952, the year of Ben Hogan's third Colonial title, for him to receive his first plaid jacket. That's because the Colonial jacket, made from a 12-colour custom plaid called "Royal Tartan", did not exist until that year. It was created in 1952 by tournament chairman S.M. "Bing" Bingham, who sought an identifying garment for champions and club officials that would "shine with the same brilliance as our field for the tournament." Sunday's winner will receive a custom jacket cut from the same cloth that has swaddled Colonial champs for 64 years."
