Fabric & heritage

The Fraser Hunting Weathered sett transforms the clan's bold Hunting colors into softened, time-worn tones—muted brown, gentle green, dusty blue and subtle red creating one of the most refined patterns in the Scottish tartan registry. The "Weathered" effect reproduces the appearance of tartan faded by decades of Highland weather, sun, and wear—connecting you to the authentic look of ancestral garments. Clan Fraser of Lovat traces its lineage to the ancient lands of Inverness-shire, with the family holding the hereditary title of Lord Lovat since the 15th century. From the Jacobite rising to service in the British Army, the Frasers have exemplified their motto "Je Suis Prest" (I Am Ready). Woven in Scotland, this 16 oz cloth holds crisp pleats through hours of celebration. Dry clean only; store hanging to preserve pleat memory.

Why 8 yards?

The traditional Highlander kilt requires eight full yards of tartan—double the cloth of modern casual kilts. This creates deeper pleats, fuller swing, and the unmistakable silhouette that has defined Scottish formal wear for centuries. The Fraser Hunting Weathered, with its muted tones and time-worn elegance, honors that legacy with authentic character that modern fabrics cannot replicate. When you wear Fraser Weathered, you wear the enduring heritage of the Highland clans—ready for whatever history brings.
