Clan Macleod Red River Ancient Tartan Kilt

$129.00

Decide where you want to wear your kilt. You can wear it at your natural waist, a bit above your belly button, or lower, closer to your hips like jeans or shorts. It’s your choice, depending on what’s most comfortable for you. If you want a more flattering look, it’s recommended to wear it higher up. Use a measuring tape to find where you want the top of your kilt to sit. Make it snug but not too tight, and stand naturally without sucking in or pushing out your stomach.

(Measuring the Space between Waist and Hip) Extend the measuring tape from the point you marked on your waist to the spot you noted on your hip. The pleats will be securely sewn along the fell, and this contributes to the distinctive swaying and fluid motion of a kilt as you walk.

Measure around the broadest part of your hip. To find this spot, stand with your back against a wall and take a few steps back. The area that makes contact with the wall first is where you should have your measurement.

A kilt is typically worn around knee length. If you prefer a very traditional appearance, position your kilt at the top of your knee. But if you like a more relaxed, hip-level look, place it at the bottom of your knee. To determine the length, stand upright and have your Trusty Assistant measure from the point where you took your waist measurement down to your chosen knee spot for the kilt’s hem. Alternatively, you can bend your knees and measure from the waist to the floor. Make sure these measurements are precise – double-check them, and even triple-check if needed. If something doesn’t feel right or if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask for assistance.

The Clan MacLeod Red River Ancient Tartan Kilt is not a well-known or historically significant tartan in the context of Scottish clans and their traditional tartans. The MacLeod clan, with its various branches, has several recognized tartans, but there isn’t a specific tartan associated with “Red River Ancient” in traditional Scottish tartan lore.

It’s possible that the term “Red River Ancient” is being used in a non-traditional or modern context, or it could refer to a tartan developed for a specific organization, event, or commemorative purpose. In such cases, the tartan may have been created to celebrate the MacLeod clan’s heritage or to pay tribute to a particular historical event, but it would not be considered a traditional clan tartan with a long history.

To learn more about this specific tartan, its history, and significance, it would be best to contact the organization or group associated with it or consult any available documentation or records related to its creation. Keep in mind that many modern tartans have been designed in recent years for various reasons, and they may not have the same historical weight as the ancient clan tartans that have been passed down for generations.
