    Having joined up with the Donnachaidhs many years ago, I can attest to the beauty of the tartan. (I was relieved that it wasn't one the louder tartans, no offense intended.)

    I have a kilt in the weathered version of the Hunting tartan:



    I also have a breachen faile in Red Robertson that I've rarely worn but can really make a show in when I do (very old photo):



    Then there's the Hunting version that is my first and likely favorite kilt (another old photo):



    You can see that there are lots of great options from which to choose in the Donnachaidh clan. Not to mention the fine folks who are members.

    Very nice, Jim. If you don't mind me asking, which weaver wove your Robertson Hunting Modern? I like the deep, dark scheme.

    I got it from House of Edgar about 15 or 20 years ago. Yes, I, too, like the deep colors. I don't care for lighter shades personally.

    One of my close friends / adopted sisters is a proud daughter of Clan Donnachaidh. Her maiden name is Robertson, and she grew up hearing about her family's Highland heritage.
