Day/Laird's Plaid

[Ancienne Alliance]

I wore this traditional plaid for most of the morning recently at the Stone Mountain Highland Games a couple of weekends ago. It was a bit chilly and the plaid served me well. It got a lot more compliments than I expected (even later in the day when it was folded and draped across the back of a chair!).


We can have these made to order here, if anyone is interested in this style:

You can also order a "half-belted plaid" as has been mentioned previously on this thread.

While it's best if the half-belted plaid matches the tartan of the kilt (to complete the old feilidh-mor effect) the shepherd's plaid does not necessarily have to match the kilt, or even be in tartan at all, as mine in the above photo illustrates.

As posted in another thread a few minutes ago, here is my new day/laird's plaid...





Best,

Robert
