It's the Scottish Borderland district tartan, manufactured by Lochcarron. They don't even make it in kilt weight. I had to pay extra to get it woven.
I found the alleged clan affiliation for my name totally unacceptable (for historical, not political, reasons), so I spent some time looking for a district tartan that matched my family history and that I actually liked. I really like this tartan and I don't mind having a kilt that does not look like anyone else's.
My wife and daughters all have matching sashes.
Bob, a "tip o' the bonnet" to you for choosing a district tartan, and a very "handsome" one tae boot! :mrgreen:
For a minute, it looked like the district tartan for Bermuda.
I really like the colours in it, and I agree with you -- I like a tartan that doesn't look like anyone else's! :mrgreen:
Cheers, 
Todd
