    FWIW, I'm of the understanding that both of these are fairly new creations, essentially being a "fashion" tartan based on colours traditionally associated with Ireland (green and saffron mostly). So neither is more historical than the other.

    That being said, it's all about personal preference. I've never compared them before, but I admit, I kinda like the Ireland's National because there seems to be two different tones of green, making for a more complex pattern. However, I too, own an Irish National from SWK from the Thrifty line. The price was one that couldn't be beat!

    If they had been the same price, I might have choosen the Ireland's National. But, you can't beat Jerry's prices, IMHO.
