Colour:
Shades: A bold, high‑contrast palette built on a strong scarlet red ground. Large red blocks dominate the sett, crossed with deep black to create the classic broad check that defines the Wallace tartans. Bright yellow overlines add sharp contrast and a warm highlight, giving the pattern its instantly recognisable vibrancy.
Design: A traditional Wallace sett composed of alternating scarlet and black squares framed by narrow yellow stripes. The geometry is simple, disciplined and highly structured: strong vertical and horizontal black bars form the grid, while the yellow lines run just inside those bars to emphasise the layout. The overall effect is a clean, striking modern interpretation of the historic Wallace pattern.
Overall: A powerful, iconic tartan long associated with the Wallace name and widely used in modern Highland dress. The high visibility of the scarlet and black combination makes Wallace Red Modern a favourite for kilts, sashes and accessories, offering a commanding appearance while remaining true to centuries of tradition.
