    Hodden Grey is worn by two regiments, the London Scottish and the Toronto Scottish in Canada:

    http://www.regiments.org/tradition/tartans/hodden.htm

    http://www.regiments.org/regiments/u...nf/L14scot.htm

    http://www.stephen-roberts.com/Tor-Scot-R.htm

    Plenty of piccies on these sites, plus a history of the tartan.

    Hodden Grey is also mentioned in the song "The Star o' Rabbie Burns" (tho' he was but a ploughman lad, and wore the Hodden grey) in reference to the plain homespun dress of Burns.

    I've always wanted a kilt in Hodden grey -- very natty, INMHO.

    Hope this helps!

    Cheers,

    Todd
