Highlanders in the Blue 84 Charleston Cougars Maroon 2023 CAA Men’s Basketball Conference Tournament Champions Locker Room T-Shirt and I love this days of the clan system, before the mid-18th century, wore a garment called a plaid, or great kilt (fèileadh-mòr). This was simply a length of woollen cloth that was thrown over the shoulder, wrapped around the torso, and belted at the waist. Even then, a Highlander in the streets of Glasgow would have looked a strange sight to the locals. These plaids were often in an elaborate chequered pattern using yarn coloured with vegetable dyes, called tartan (breacan). Members of a clan wore a variety of tartans and there was no such thing as a “clan tartan”. ‘Plaid’ is not a synonym for ‘tartan’ and to use it in that sense is an error. Some sixty years later Walter Scott helped to romanticise the (utterly unromantic) Highland life in his novels and created a fashion for romanticised tartanry which the Yorkshire (England) woollen industry exploited with the assistance of the new, bright and permanent chemical dyes, and created tartans as we now know them along with the tailored kilt – very different from the old and simple plaid. Military regiments commissioned distinctive tartans, and these are really the only ones to be treated with respect as belonging to a particular group; just as you wouldn’t wear a regimental tie you weren’t entitled to you shouldn’t wear a regimental tartan inappropriately, although nobody’s going to fling you in the dungeons of Stirling Castle if you do. “Clan tartans” have no historical basis and are really for sale to gullible Americans. If you wear tartan, wear one that looks good on you and don’t worry if it’s not your family’s own.
Now to the Blue 84 Charleston Cougars Maroon 2023 CAA Men’s Basketball Conference Tournament Champions Locker Room T-Shirt and I love this question. Nobody in Scotland wears the plaid, or great kilt, unless they are involved in some historical reconstruction. Scottish men will wear the kilt to the same kind of formal occasions to which American men would wear a tuxedo. They will also wear them to cèilidhean and to Burns Suppers: that is, Highland and Lowland celebrations alike, for the kilt (the whole outfit) is now a pan-Scottish icon. Some women wear the kilt too, in the same way that some American women of a certain mindset wear tuxedos, and others will wear kilted skirts to these occasions although most prefer a dressy dress. Going about their everyday business, women may have slightly more of an inclination to wear tartan skirts than women in other western countries.
