We can have these made to order here, if anyone is interested in this style:

You can also order a " half-belted plaid" as has been mentioned previously on this thread.
While it's best if the half-belted plaid matches the tartan of the kilt (to complete the old feilidh-mor effect) the shepherd's plaid does not necessarily have to match the kilt, or even be in tartan at all, as mine in the above photo illustrates.
As posted in another thread a few minutes ago, here is my new day/laird's plaid...

Best,
