    MacLean tank

    Here's my new 16oz MacLean modern tank. The tartan was woven by Marton Mills. I had to throw a few photos up to celebrate!

    Looking good there cousin.

    I like the brown belt and sporran, goes with the tartan very well.

    I can hardly wait to order mine. I was thinking to go with black accessories, so that I could interchange with the MacLean Modern Hunting as well.

    Just a thought: I don't think it matters too much whether black or brown sporrans or belts are worn with either MacLean tartan.

    That's a very nice kilt, made out of an extremely nice tartan!

    Who made your kilt?

    Brown leather accessories will go well with MacLean Hunting as well. The green and the brown are both "earth" colours so look quite natural together. I'm one of those who as a general rule prefers brown leather for day wear and black for formal wear

    I'm the same, I prefer brown for day wear and black for evening / formal
