    Before you get too excited about it, ask Matt Newsome or read his article (the last few paragraphs to be specific):

    Or this one:

    I believe that the very site you mentioned will sell you the tartan. Go to their contact page for information about how to order.

    JakobT is correct. The Iceland tartan is sold only by the International Tartans website. I really like the shade of blue in that tartan.

    Looks like they even sell Scotland-made kilts of it (per their website.)

    Or even lampshades!

    Read rocky's links (quoted above) before you commit to anything. I think you'd be better off designing your own "Icelandic Tartan". It would probably have more credibility than these ones... Just a thought but you can have a go here:

    http://www.house-of-tartan.scotland....ver/index.html

    and once you've designed it, you can buy a kilt length of your own design here:

    http://www.house-of-tartan.scotland....id=-2088110194

    That's got to be more fun than wearing someone elses unofficial interpretation of what your National Tartan should be.
