The Galbraith Tartan boasts a rich heritage rooted in the Scottish Highlands, with its origins linked to the Galbraith clan, believed to descend from the legendary hero Gilbride of the 12th century. Historically, this clan faced conflicts with neighboring factions, including the MacGregors and Campbells, and stood against the English during political turmoil. Known also as the Russell, Mitchell, and Hunter tartan, its official designation is documented in the records of the Highland Society of London. The Galbraith clan significantly contributed to the Scottish Wars of Independence, demonstrating loyalty to Robert the Bruce in the 14th century. Their status rose in the 15th century under the protection of the Earls of Lennox, marking a prominent chapter in their history.
