    Help identify this tartan

    Found this kilt on ebay. Not my size but I really like the tartan. The kilt was made by Macdonald & Macdonald by the pics of the tag. It looks similar to a Macdonald tartan, but definitely weathered. Maybe someone recognizes it.

    here's the link

    I'm pretty much a sucker for any weathered tartan. I love earth tones. The Scott green weathered Rocky is wearing on his site is definitely one of my favorites.

    I've had a crease or two in my kilt when I have sat on it when it got wet in the rain but look at the state of that!

    It's definitely been stored improperly for a while. I looked at the rest of their listings and it looks like they get things from estate auctions and post on e-bay. Maybe yard sales too.
