Tough Tartan
Historical Context
The tartan has deep roots in Scottish history, dating back to the early 16th century. Originally woven from wool, tartans were used by Scottish clans to represent their unique identities. The design and colors of each tartan served as a way to signify clan allegiance and heritage. Over time, notable figures such as Sir Walter Scott helped popularize tartans, intertwining them with Scotland's cultural revival during the 19th century. Each pattern tells a story, often associated with significant events in Scottish history, making tartans not just a textile, but a symbol of national pride.
Color Scheme and Pattern
This particular tartan features a striking pattern of alternating black and gray stripes, embodying strength and resilience. The bold contrast of colors symbolizes unity and balance, reflecting the spirit of the Scottish people. Made from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan ensures durability while providing a comfortable feel against the skin.
