    Glasgow 2104 Commonwealth Games Tartan

    I was seeing this all over the shops in Scotland while we were there. It's completely different from the tartan that the Scottish athletes wore, it's not the Scottish TEAM tartan, it's the GAMES tartan.

    Here's many-year Highland Games Champion, Gregor Edmonds wearing a kilt in it, while he hoists the designer on his shoulders.



    It looks reasonably good in the pictures, in person, in small quantities it was pretty violently GREEN.

    It looks better than the tartan worn by the Scottish athletes.

    It was also used for the dresses of the Medal Bearers during the Games.
