Graham,

That tartan was produced by Islay Woolen Mills for the film. Way back in March I had a request from someone for a box pleated kilt in the Braveheart tartan, so I contacted Islay Woolen Mills.

They produce the cloth in both a light weight plain weave and a heavy weight twill weave. The latter is what you would want for a kilt. The cost of the cloth is a bit more expensive than what I normally pay for tartan cloth (I don't know if they were quoting me wholesale or retail -- it was either expensive wholesale or fairly reasonable retail).

Anyway, the bottom line is that I was able to quote the gentleman a price of $380 for a kilt in that cloth (compare to $350 which is my usual price for standard tartans). He ended up not getting a kilt in this tartan, but I'd give anyone else the same price.

When I spoke with the gentleman at Islay Woollen Mills, he said he was out of the heavy weight twill and would have to weave it again, so it may be a while before it was available. This was way back in March, though, so I imagine that would have been done by now.

Aye,
Matt
