Press & Journal Tartan

Historical Context

The Press & Journal Tartan carries a proud legacy within Scottish culture, with roots tracing back to the 19th century. While tartans have long symbolized clan identity and heritage, this particular design reflects the spirit of the North East of Scotland, where the Press & Journal newspaper has served the community since 1747. Over the years, it has grown into a symbol of regional pride, representing both the heritage and resilience of its people. Distinguished local leaders and cultural figures have worn this tartan during significant occasions, reinforcing its cultural significance and connection to Scotland’s identity.

Color Scheme and Pattern

The Press & Journal Tartan features an elegant composition of deep gray tones accented with subtle black highlights. Its classic checkered pattern bridges tradition with modern style, making it versatile for both heritage wear and contemporary fashion. The gray hues convey balance, neutrality, and continuity, while black symbolizes strength, resilience, and timeless sophistication. Crafted from 100% acrylic wool, this tartan is both durable and comfortable, ensuring suitability for everyday wear as well as formal Scottish Attire.
