Black Watch Modern Tartan Kilt
Product Description
The Black Watch Modern Tartan Kilt is perhaps the most famous and recognizable kilt in the world. It is the official tartan of the Royal Regiment of Scotland and was originally worn by the "Highland Companies" who patrolled the mountains in the 1700s.
The "Government" Tartan
Known as the "Government Tartan," the Black Watch Modern features a dark and somber palette of Deep Navy Blue, Forest Green, and Black. Because it is a military tartan, it is "open," meaning anyone can wear it regardless of their last name. It represents authority, protection, and the highest level of Scottish military honor. Its understated elegance makes it the "little black dress" of the kilt world—it never goes out of style and is appropriate for absolutely any occasion.
