Irn Bru tartan

[CDNSushi]

Got a friend who would LOVE an Irn Bru kilt but the Irn Bru tartan is "restricted."

Does anyone know an authorized purveyor of this tartan or a kilt-maker who could make a kilt in this tartan? The closest I got was an Irn-Bru tartan scarf on eBay...

Write to the director of marketing at Irn-Bru and ask for permission to make a kilt from the Irn-Bru tartan. I doubt he'd say no...
