    Question Locharron site

    Hi!

    Looking at the new vendors site (Scottish Trading Company), I followed the link for tartans and went to the lovely Locharron site. On the top & bottom borders is a wonderful brown-based tartan with white & black.

    http://www.lochcarron.com/reiver.htm

    Anyone know what this is? Thanks!

    Bradley, for a straight edge you've sure got an addiction!! At least the only harm it can do is to your wallet.
