In January of this year a new tartan was released as a tibute to the famous army regiment, the Black Watch. Named the Red Hackle, it bears a striking resemblance to the original and popular Black Watch tartan, only this tartan has 2 red shades layered over the top to represent the red hackle that the Black Watch soldiers wore in their bonnets.
It was designed by Perthshire-based House of Edgar, with the final tartan approved by Black Watch officials.
A percentage of sales of the tartan will be given to the Black Watch Heritage Trust.
