U.S. Marine Corps Tartan Kilts

Marines Tartan

Though this tartan isn’t officially recognized by the USMC, it is often worn by service members and those honoring the service of a family member. The tartan is predominately blue and green, with red and yellow stripes. However, there are actually two tartans created in honor of the USMC registered with the same thread count. The difference? If you prefer darker, more subdued colors, then you’ll likely prefer the “Leatherneck” tartan variant. You’ll stand out in a field of Clan tartans when you wear your US Marine Corps tartan kilt!

Military Tartan Kilts

Our military tartan kilts are mostly available in light weight (11oz) and medium weight (13oz) tartan. Although, a few we can only get in light weight. We typically suggest medium weight tartan if you’re looking at kilts. In most cases, you won’t be too warm and you’ll have a nice sway to your pleats. You’ll look dashing with the purchase a 5 yard or 9 yard kilt for your next military or formal function. However, you may want to clear it with your commander! In contrast, get yourself one of our great kilts, ancient kilts, or phillabegs if you’re looking for more casual wear!

Scottish American Military Society

These kilts should be of special interest if you’re a member of the Scottish American Military Society. These tartans were made specifically for the Military Armed Forces like the Marine Corps. The Society was founded as a veterans organization. As a result, the membership is composed primarily of veterans of Scottish ancestry who have served, or are serving, in the U.S. Armed Forces. Their goal is “to preserve and promote Scottish and American Armed Forces customs, traditions, and heritage.” Join them and find more information on SAMS here: Scottish American Military Society
