Wilsons of Bannockburn Colors

[creagdhubh]

Matt,

Absolutely delightful to see the Wilson's of Bannockburn colour palette shown and decribed in this manner. You have made it very clear and concise, especially to those who may not necessarily be familiar with these particular colours and the history associated with them. This is a definitive resource for those considering a kilt woven in this particular colour scheme. Thank you for sharing, and I am very much looking forward to owning a new (Macpherson and/or Chattan tartan, naturally) kilt in Wilson's colours one day soon...it's next up in my queue!

Best wishes,

Many thanks Matt for this interesting insight into Wilson's colours.
I own a modern kilt in "Wilson" tartan, supposedly the house tartan devised Wilson of Bannockburn.
Solely because I share a Wilson line with my Canadian cousins and they love to see me wearing the tartan. However I have often considered it garish and unauthentic and have pondered the possibility of having a kilt in "Wilson" tartan in the genuine muted tones of the Wilson of Bannockburn era.
