MacLaine of Lochbuie at the woollen mill
I'm thinking of buying the MacLaine of Lochbuie from the www.woollenmill.co.uk but I did a check on the internet and searched the MacLaine of Lochbuie tartan and I saw nothing that was like this. Mayby I'm just going blind, but is this the right MacLaine of Lochbuie Tartan? https://www.woollenmill.co.uk/acatal..._Lochbuie.html

That looks like a great deal.

NO, that is not the MacLaine of Lochbuie red. Use this link to get the correct tartans. http://www.geocities.com/maclainelochbuie/main.html What they show is MacLean of Duart. There is no white in the MoL tartan at all.
I am sitting here in my MoL tank right now, having been descended upon by the family for the holiday.

http://www.scotweb.co.uk/tartan/MacL...-Colours/1767? this link is to Scotweb Kilt Store, What the Woolen Mill shows is not quite right either, it is closer to the MacLean of Duart, but still not quite right. Maybe some of the more knowledgeble can figure it out. The one thing I am sure about, it is NOT MacLailne of Lochbuie!

The Wollen Mill shows a MacLean of Duart kilt in weathered tartan, not Lochbuie. No doubt about that. Here is a pic of me wearing the said weathered MacLean, in tartan woven by Lochcarron:

Thanks JSFMACLJR , it may have been the photo on the website, it didn't look quite right to me for McLean of Duart, either, but I see it is, after all. I am not an authority on tartans, but I can recognize mine when I see it (MoL)
