Tartan Bow Tie and Cumberbun set

**Kilted Jeeper** · 22nd October 10, 07:43 AM

Anybody know where I can find a tartan bow tie and cumberbun on short notice? I know we have several vendors who sell these items, but I need it by Novemebr 3rd and there isn't a local source that I have yet found.

Thanks,

Is there a particular tartan you are searching for?

You might check HERE for specific tartans, or your local formal wear rental/sales place (Men's Wearhouse, etc) for generic 'plaid'.

BTW: It's probably too late to order from the link, it's 10-12 days plus posting time, but it might be useful info for your next occasion.

I was fortunate enough to find a set at a local formal-wear supplier, in the
Black Stewart tartan. If you have one in your area, that might be your best
or quickest answer.

I just did a search for "tartan cumberbund bow tie" on ebay and came up with half a dozen or so sets. No names on the tartans, so probably just fashion patterns, but might work?

Try the British Shop in Buffalo! Don't have their number but they do have a web site, close enough to drive to as well.

About 2 years ago I ordered a set from Scotweb. I chose the exact tartan I wanted (and Elliot modern) and it arrived a short time later - not immediately as it was custom made - but soon enough.
