We are delighted to introduce the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games tartan and a great range of products now available from stock. If you are looking for a memento of the Games or a full team kit then we are here to help.

This 21st century tartan which will be a defining part of the fabric of the Commonwealth Games this summer. The tartan was designed by Aamir Mehmood from Shawlands Academy as part of a countrywide competition to design a tartan for the Games. The school was chosen as the launch venue as a tribute to the tartan’s teenage designer Aamir, a 15-year-old Shawlands Academy pupil, beat thousands of young people from across Scotland with his winning design which was created using Glasgow 2014’s brand colours. Aamir said he incorporated blue, yellow, white and red to represent Scotland’s national colours. In addition he used a green landscape to demonstrate the fact that 75% of Shawlands Academy is bilingual and around 50 different languages are spoken in his school.

Along with standard products such at tartan ties, scarves and caps in the Commonwealth Games tartan we can of course custom make anything for you. You can even buy the fabric and make yourself some curtains or cover your sofa with it! If you need any help or want something made that is not listed on the website just get in touch as we do love a challenge.
