Calgary University Tartan

Historical Context

The Calgary University Tartan proudly celebrates a blend of Scottish heritage and academic tradition. Rooted in the 18th century history of tartans, these patterns were originally used to represent Scottish clans, family bonds, and regional identity. Designed specifically for the university, this tartan reflects the lasting influence of Scottish immigrants in Canada, especially their role in shaping education and cultural values. Early settlers and educators helped build a strong foundation of learning, and this tartan honors that legacy while creating a shared sense of pride, unity, and belonging for students and alumni.

Color Scheme & Pattern

The Calgary University Tartan features a bold and eye-catching blend of red, black, and yellow. Red represents energy, passion, and ambition, while black symbolizes strength, tradition, and determination. The yellow stripes add warmth and balance, reflecting optimism and growth.

Crafted from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan delivers lasting comfort, durability, and versatility, making it a perfect choice for formal events and everyday Scottish Attire.
