If I designed a tartan here in Canada ( which I have ) but had it woven and made into a kilt in Scotland would it be a less legitimate kilt? I could label it " A designed in Canada, woven in Scotland and made in Scotland kilt like garment".
I think I need a Scotch after reading that! 
Yes the label doesn't say "made in Scotland" but with the Saltire and the word "authentic" on the label, what is your average tourist going to read into it? I have no problem with your "Designed in Canada, woven and made in Scotland" label - that gives the full details which is somewhat more than the "tartan tat" label does!
