Johnstone Weathered Tartan 8 Yard Kilt - Clan Johnstone Aged Wool Kilts

Johnstone Weathered Tartan 8-Yard Scottish Highland Kilt

Embrace the rugged beauty of the Borders with our Johnstone Weathered Tartan 8 Yard Scottish Kilt—a distinctive aged variant for Clan Johnstone descendants. Featuring muted slate blues, earthy browns, and faded greys that evoke centuries of Annandale history, this traditional 8-yard kilt offers vintage elegance while honoring the clan motto "Nunquam Non Paratus" (Never Unprepared).

Aged by the Border Winds

The Weathered colorway presents the Johnstone sett as if aged by the harsh Scottish elements—sun-faded, rain-washed, and wind-worn. Soft slate blues replace vibrant navy, while warm browns and heather greys create an earthy, muted palette that speaks to the passage of time and the enduring strength of the Border Reivers heritage.

Vintage Highland Aesthetic

This atmospheric tartan captures the essence of ancient Scotland, where fabrics naturally weathered through years of wear. The subdued tones offer sophisticated versatility for those seeking a kilt with character and historical depth—perfect for heritage events, historical reenactments, and vintage-inspired Highland dress.
