Brian is absolutely correct. I have superb kilts in three of the Breton tartans: Le National Breton, le Randonnée Bretonne (or Brittany Walking tartan) and the Bro-Leon, the last two being among my all-time favourites of all my 98 kilts.
All three were ordered through La Maison du Kilt in Paris (address is at the foot of their website). I believe the tartans are woven by the House of Edgar in Scotland although they are not listed on the HoE website.
Apart from a love of the Breton countryside and its people, I have no connections with that part of the world. I selected the tartans to represent that important part of the old Celtic nations within my 'Kollection'. All the others are represented with the exception of Galicia. (Note to self: must do something about that 'ere long!).
Take care,
Ham.
