    Verification please

    I had asked months back about wearing sashes. Well, I'd like to buy one and preferably in this exact tartan, but I just need to be sure of what I'm looking for.







    Is this the Ancient or is it something else? The label only says Buchanan.

    Thanks for the help.

    Ask for "Buchanan in the Ancient Color Scheme". You'll need to specifiy that you want a Lochcarron product if you're really picky about these exact shades of colors. Also, consider getting a sash made from Lochcarron's "Reiver", 11oz. tartan, instead of the pictured style. The Reiver fabric is a twill and will look nicer.

    Confirming it is the Buchanan ancient tartan. However, I'll also point out that that appears to be a rather old Lochcarron label, so even if you buy a sash from Lochcarron today no guarantee of an exact color match.
