    Louder than MacLeod?

    Can anyone identify this tartan?


    Is it some variation of a Rainbow tartan? What do you think: is it the next Isle of Skye, or destined for the "World's Ugliest Tartan" thread?

    Regards,
    Rex.

    Don't know Rex but I kinda like it. If this is the pride tartan then it's done well.

    A bit busy. Minus the red and I would like it.

    Cheers

    to me, 6 colors (especially ones that are so different) is too much. I KNOW that some guys up here like the MacPherson Red and Caledonia tartans, but I prefer the more "subdued" and muted tones.

    Please note... I DON'T MIND COLOR (I love Isle of Skye), just when there's too much going on in one tartan.

    Sounds like it has several of the colors I can't look good wearing... Bright orange, bright yellow, bright red, and so on. Oh well.

    They need a pastel pride tartan...
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    It does sort of look like one of the MacBeth tartans - I see what you mean.

    I love my Macpherson in weathered colors, but the modern red is too much for me too, Rocky.

    I think that is too loud for me.

    I have always liked the Buchanan tartan and this resembles it. I like it.
