This one's new to me:

Scroll to bottom.

Though the one at the top may make you smile.

In that link, they list the Monarch of the Glen (no, not after the TV show) tartan as new. My local shop has been renting those for years http://www.tartantown.com/rentals.htm (first on the left) I am really hoping they sell one in my size in the ex-rental sections one of these days.

I assume that is a new fashion tartan. It is not listed in the Compendium of District Tartans (Newsome & Bullman, Scotpress 2004 & 2005) and differs from the American, American with Eagle and United States / St. Andrews tartans.

I tend to agree with you Dee, yet I can see myself wearing any of those gorgeous tartans.

I like the American. I can see myself wearing that... maybe I will see myself wearing that

My next kilt is going to be in the American National tartan. I requested a sample swatch from the House of Edgar and the real thing looks much nicer than electronic version.

Here is a little more realistic looking swatch:

I don't care for it. Maybe if they replaced the green stripes with white ones.

It's better than that horrid "American Bicentennial." I'll say that for it.

But they do have a white stripe in it
