Description

Historical Significance

The Affara Tartan is deeply rooted in the heritage of Clan Donald, one of Scotland's largest and most influential clans. Known for their formidable presence in Scottish history, Clan Donald's legacy includes notable figures such as John of Islay and the Lords of the Isles. This tartan serves as a symbol of the clan's rich history, representing their courage and resilience through its striking colors and pattern. Tartan weaving dates back to the 16th century, making it a significant aspect of Scottish cultural identity and pride.

Color Scheme & Pattern

The Affara Tartan features a vibrant royal blue base interwoven with bold green, yellow, and black lines. The striking blue symbolizes loyalty and trust, essential qualities among clan members. The green reflects the strong ties to the Scottish Highlands and the natural beauty of the land, while the yellow lines represent optimism and warmth. The black adds contrast and depth, symbolizing strength and stability. Crafted from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan offers both durability and comfort, making it a perfect choice for honoring Scotland's natural heritage in both formal and everyday wear.

Care Information

Caring for and maintaining a kilt is essential to keep it looking its best and prolonging its life. The first step is understanding the type of fabric your kilt is made from, as different materials require different care methods. Wool, for instance, needs special attention compared to a utility kilt made from synthetic materials. Here are some tips on how to care for and maintain your kilt:

  1. Proper storage: Always store your kilt in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Use a kilt hanger with wide clips to avoid creasing the pleats. Alternatively, you can roll your kilt, but ensure you don't squash the pleats.
  2. Cleaning: Wool kilts should be dry cleaned only. For synthetic or utility kilts, check the care label for washing instructions. Most utility kilts can be machine-washed gently, while others may need hand washing or spot cleaning.
  3. Ironing: After cleaning, iron your kilt carefully to maintain crisp pleats. Use a cool iron for wool kilts and a slightly warmer setting for synthetic kilts. Iron the pleats one by one, taking care not to stretch the fabric.
  4. Refreshing: To refresh your kilt between cleanings, hang it in a well-ventilated area and allow it to air out. You can also use a fabric refresher spray but always test it on a hidden area first to ensure it won't damage the material.
  5. Dealing with spills: If you spill something on your kilt, don't rub it. Blot the spill gently with a clean cloth, and if necessary, take your kilt to a professional cleaner as soon as possible.
  6. Repairs: For minor repairs, like loose buttons or fraying, you can fix them yourself with a needle and thread. For more extensive damage, seek the help of a professional tailor or kilt maker.
  7. Moth prevention: Keep your kilt safe from moths by using natural repellents like cedar blocks or lavender sachets. Avoid using mothballs, as they can damage the fabric and leave a strong smell.
