Ancient Tartan
Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer colours typical of the Ancient tartans, mossy greens and sky blues, a more orangey red and some would say showing off the pattern to much greater effect as as the contrasts are much brighter than the Modern tartans. The pattern or sett remains the same across all variations of a single tartan, and only the shades or tones vary.
Quelques constats
Post 1860 chemical dyes replaced the natural animal and vegetable dyes and the Modern Tartans were born with their stronger and bolder colours. The soft greens and blues become bottle green and navy blue, reds are scarlet.
Modern Tartan
Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer colours typical of the Ancient tartans. Post 1860 chemical dyes replaced the natural animal and vegetable dyes and the Modern Tartans were born with their stronger and bolder colours. The soft greens and blues become bottle green and navy blue, reds are scarlet.
Quelques constats
The Modern tartans are often the more subtle combinations such as the classic Black Watch Modern
Weathered Tartan
Before 1860 fabrics were coloured using animal and vegetable dyes. This produced the softer, more earthy colours typical of the Weathered tartans, reminiscent of bolder colours subjected to wind, rain and sunshine producing beautiful faded tones, olive greens and browns, and very light blues with reds that are more pink than red.
Quelques constats
Some mills refer to the Weathered tartans as Muted.
Hunting Tartan
The Hunting Tartans are the camouflage tartans and some clans don't have these variations because they are already predominantly green or brown and don't need amendment to blend in with nature's colours. The Black Watch or Gunn tartans are examples of these, whereas a tartan such as the Fraser is predominantly red and would not provide much cover for men out hunting.
Quelques constats
One thing to remember if you are ordering your tartan to match an existing kilt or accessory is that although the sett and colours are the same, there can be a slight difference in colour from one mill to the next. This is purely down to yarn dying so if you need an exact match we suggest you order a swatch to double check.
Dress Tartan
The Dress Tartans were designed as the name suggests for celebrations and highland dance. The sett or pattern of the tartan remains the same and the main colour is changed to white, or extra white is added to the pattern to give it a brighter, more "fancy" appearance. The Scots do like to bend the rules and occasionally instead of white thread, yellow is used and this is where the rather wild MacLeod Dress Modern and Barclay Dress Modern came from.

From the start
Doddie'5 Tartan Origins & History
What's in the name?
The Doddie'5 tartan was designed by ScotlandShop with Scottish rugby international Doddie Weir, and this great bear of a man looks like a Chief even if he isn't a recognised as such.
Doddie'5 Tartan
Our association with the legend that is Doddie Weir is a long and personal one stretching far back beyond us making the tartan suits he is so famous for. The idea of a “Doddie tartan” has been one mooted for several years and our in-house designer Emily was delighted when Doddie finally said “Let’s do it” and the serious business of colour and sett design could begin. Tartans traditionally have 5 colours but Doddie is a man of his own mind and 4 tartans it was to be. We love the resulting combinations of colour and I am sure you will agree they are a great representation of Doddie’s positive attitude and optimism as our favourite rugby hero makes his mark in the world of tartan design and raises much needed funds to find a cure for MND.
Doddie Weir
Doddie Weir is one of Scottish rugby’s most loved personalities with his strong sense of fun and a proven track record of success for country, club and nation. In June 2017 before heading out to support the British Lions in New Zealand, Doddie revealed he suffered from Motor Neurone Disease (MND). MND is a rare, and as yet incurable, condition that deeply affects the brain and nerves. Doddie founded the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation committed to helping fellow sufferers, raise funds to aid research and make a difference to the lives of those coping and battling with MND.
