The Tartan Design Process

To make your bespoke tartan a reality, you will work closely with our in-house Tartan Designer. You will start by choosing your colours, these could be inspired by your family, hometown or brand logo. Our tartan designer will create several design options with your colour palette and amend the sett pattern and colour tones until you are happy with the final design. Your design will then be sent to the mill to be woven.

What Can I Make With My Tartan?

Once your tartan has been woven, the options of what to make with it are endless. Many people choose to have kilts, trews and tartan accessories made with their tartan that they can enjoy for both everyday wear and special occasions. We can also offer more bespoke designs and are happy to help make your creative ideas come to life.
