    This tartan has an old and mysterious origin. It was designed by a mad sporran maker in Michigan earlier last century. Some say he lost his mind after deep diving and what he saw in the depths. He spent the rest of his years drinking himself numb to try and forget what cannot be unremembered.

    Read about it for yourself:

    Be careful what you ask for...
