Predominantly blue tartan

**JonathanB** · 24th May 13, 01:39 PM

I'm English with a French surname (presumably Hugenot, but not confirmed). I have a Black Watch kilt, which I love, and a Cornish Hunting kilt on order (both my grandmothers had Cornish connections).

I don't want to claim Scottish or clan connections when they don't exist.

But I'm sure I will want a third kilt in due course. I've got a Lovat Blue jacket on order and I'm wondering that I'd like a predominantly blue kilt. I'm quite happy to get a clan tartan if it looks nice and won't lead to me being mugged in the streets of Inverness. I've looked through Marton Mills website and there's not anything obvious.

Any recommendations?

Maybe one of the Slanj tartans, the Holyrood tartan as sported by bren in his casual wear thread.

Earl of St. Andrews tartan. It doesn't get any more predominantly blue than that.

That's what I'd recommend as well. It's also one of my favorites.
