Kelly of Sleat Red Tartan

Historical Significance

The Kelly of Sleat Red Tartan is deeply rooted in Scottish heritage, with strong ties to the historic MacLeod family of the Isle of Skye. Dating back to the 16th century, tartans were used to represent clan identity and regional pride, and this tartan reflects the spirit of the Scottish Highlands. Closely associated with notable figures such as Sir Reginald MacLeod, who played an important role in 18th-century Scottish history, this tartan has long been worn in ceremonial and everyday Scottish attire, symbolizing tradition, identity, and cultural pride.
