    I believe it's the red Mackintosh.

    Good call. Probably MacKintosh, then. The blue is so dark, though, that it looks black in the photo, which is what made me think Maxwell. A bit unusual, since the rest of the colors look like they would be in the ancient color scheme, which would normally make the blue a lighter blue.

    Matt, I had better get that one right (see my avatar)! The blue often shows up more like black in most of my pictures. The tartan shows up better, I think, in the whole picture of the gentleman. Why he's holding that particular crest, I don't know. Notice the dirk too!

    Here's another photo of the same gentleman which shows the whole kilt... Perhaps this will help confirm that it's a MacKintosh...

    And the answer is...

    Those of you who said MacKintosh were correct! I contacted the site owner and he responded:

    Thank you for your nice comments, Shaun!

    Noble is a family of Macintosh and I am wearing the Macintosh tartan.
    We also have a length of Maxwell tartan if you ever need it.

    If you have any questions or comments, Shaun, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Best regards,
    Stuart Noble.
