    2013 tartan ID

    I was going back over pipe band photos I took in 2013 and found this band, which research told me was the Alberta Caledonian Pipe Band, which as far as I know no longer exists.

    I'm fairly sure that they wore Caledonia (ancient colours) for many years, so I'm not sure what to make of this tartan.

    The only photo I got of them in sunlight shows the backs of the kilts, where you can get the best idea of the colours.

    The best photo I got of their kilts from the front is this one, in the shade.

    I'm guessing the tartan is a bespoke weave of Caledonian.
