Description
The ‘Bootneck 350 Tartan’ is the only officially registered tartan in the world, to pay respect to all Royal Marines since 1664. The Bootneck 350 Tartan is officially recognised by the Royal Marines. And is proudly worn by former and current Royal Marines personnel and their families, friends and supporters all over the world.
We have created this Authentic Tartan exclusively for you. Weaving the DNA of the Bootneck 350 into its very core, by incorporating these significant colours:-
BLUE: Represents the intimate connection with the ‘Royal Navy’.
RED: Is for ‘Drummer Red’, historically worn by the Army.
GREEN: Signifies the infantry green, once worn on the ‘shako’ (a tall cylindrical military cap with a visor).
YELLOW: for ‘Old Gold’ from the dress and ensigns of the Duke of York and Albany’s Maritime Regiment.
BLACK: Is for the continual respect for all fallen Royal Marines.
Your unique British made Bootneck 350 Tartan Kilt is made from the finest quality medium weight (13 oz.) Bootneck 350 Tartan. Made with the full 8 yards, with no amount of effort nor material spared during the making! The traditional selvedge is the proper historical edge favoured by the military and pipe bands and all those ‘In the know about kilts!’ Taking longer to weave than the ‘modern tuck-in method’, the traditional process used to create your Bootneck 350 Tartan kilt produces a far superior finish. Hand marked in the traditional way to ensure both accuracy of the fit as well as the accuracy of your original Bootneck 350 Tartan design throughout the pleated area. All straps and buckles are sewn by hand and the pleats are machined for extra strength. With a high quality canvas and lining to ensure exceptional comfort and security for the individual.
