The MacLeod Of Harris Muted Tartan has a rich historical tapestry woven into its design. Originating in the late 18th century, the tartan became notable when John Mackenzie utilized the Mackenzie tartan in 1771 to form "Lord Macleod's Highlanders." The Mackenzie clan claimed heritage as the heirs to the Macleods of Lewis following the death of Roderick in 1595. This tartan's muted design was created to honor the common heritage of all Celts, not solely Scots, showcasing its significance beyond national borders. It has become a symbol of the distinct identity of the MacLeod clan, representing strength, heritage, and unity. Today, it remains a popular choice for those who appreciate its deep ties to Scottish culture and identity.
The MacLeod Of Harris Muted Tartan features a sophisticated color scheme of deep greens and grays arranged in a classic check pattern.
