clan crest motif marketing idea
It seems like anything a maker sticks a clan crest on sells.
Not only on cap badges, but stuck on sporrans, sginean, buckles, kilt pins; and embroidered on shirts, baseball caps, etc.
But this painting in The Highlanders Of Scotland shows something I don't think I've ever seen elsewhere, the knitting of the clan motif, in this case the deer head motif of the MacKenzies, into the actual hose pattern:

Which made me realise that hose like this could be made with the Highland galley of the MacDonalds! Or the motif of any clan I suppose. Would people buy them? I think so. I'd love to have a pair of hose with that MacDonald galley.
