    Hi, Troy...
    You are correct about Rutherfords usually wearing the Hume/Home; I was told they'd never wear their district, though!
    HOWEVER...my friend actually had a Rutherford created and woven, and it has been registered with the Scottish Tartan Authority (though as of last night, I couldn't find it with a Google search).
    If you PM me your contact information, I'll get you in touch with my friend Keith and he can tell you how to acquire the Rutherford...it is a very attractive tartan!

    Yes indeed, I have heard from several sources that the wearing of the Roxburgh District tartan is anathema to many Rutherfords! I proudly wear the Home myself (only a tie at this stage - hopefully some tartan for a kilt will be on its way for my birthday!).

    I will PM you shortly as I am keen to see the tartan your friend has acquired.

    Regards,

    Troy
