Isle of Skye is a popular and universal (anybody can wear it) tartan that makes a very lovely kilt, and can be worn with a multitude of complimentary colors, as the kilt itself has purple, maroon, lovat green, navy blue, tan and even a couple thin pink stripes in it.





I also have a Caledonia Ancient I love but no pictures yet---I just got it a couple weeks ago, and it has some fairly nice coloration to it. I will try to post some soon.

If you have a clan affiliation check out their tartan in the various colorways---modern, ancient, weathered, muted----and see if any of those float your boat.

Black Stewart, Royal Stewart, Black Watch (too dark for me) are other "generic" tartans a lot of people like.

Good Luck, and pictures are a must OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
