    Tartan identification help request

    Can anybody identify this tartan. I had it written down, and can no longer find the note.

    It has gray, white, blue and red.

    The bottom flic on my screen looks to be the closest to being true colors. The other flix are shown for pattern clarity.

    It looks like it may be a grey Thompson tartan or a variation thereof.

    That looks an awfull lot like the light gray fashion tartan offered by Gordon Kirkbright on page 5 of his website.

    http://www.wooltartan.com/tartans5.htm

    He lists it as 11oz. 55% Polyester/45% Wool.

    I have a sample of it at the shop. I'll dig it out today and take a closer look.

    Ooooooooo Fashion Tartan! Does that mean I will be fashionable when I get it made into a kilt?

    If that's the case, I can always call it anything I want - right?

    Let's see - Leatherneck Urban Warfare tartan number 16 - - -?

    Hey Wiz, I just looked at that site - I think you're right!

    So I'll change the name to "Light Grey Leatherneck Urban Warfare tartan number 16" -

    Fashion or not, named or not, that's a very nice looking tartan. I'd consider wearing that myself!
