    It's not QUITE the MacLaren tartan though... There are too many red stripes for that...

    Hey Warwick, welcome.

    I believe that's their California tartan.

    Click on their SportKilts listing and click on California tartan it'll come up.

    Here's another link to view the California Tartan:

    Click on "Tartan Finder" on left margin, then "United States of America", then "California". Lots of interesting tartans on this site.

    It seems that the Colifornia tartan is based on the Muir tartan, with the white added to the blue! Thanks, I had never really looked at that one.
