xThe Modern Macleod of Lewis box pleat is one of the most stylish and unique kilts with deep roots in Scottish history. The Macleod of Lewis tartan is one of the most recognized patterns in Scotland, characterized by an amazing black and yellow design. This specific tartan has been used by the Macleod clan, primarily through the branch on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides.
Indeed, one of the oldest clans surviving was the Macleod clan. Their history goes as far back as the 13th century, and it was one of the most powerful clans with lands scattered throughout the Hebrides and mainland Scotland. Through the ages, the tartan which represents them has evolved, but it always represented their identity and pride.
The Modern Macleod of Lewis tartan is the modern version of it. Even so, the bright yellow and black checks are here but in a more modern way. The color is pretty vibrant together with this striking pattern, and thus, it is so popular among those who wish to celebrate their heritage in style and with some kind of modernity going along with it.
It is the box pleat style for this kilt that makes it unique. Box pleats vary from knife pleats that leave the pleat flat, making the kilt look stiff and rather full. The box pleat was mainly found in military outfits and is a very practical and handy style. For example, the box pleats in the Modern Macleod of Lewis make the kilt look different and far more recognizable than other kilts.
The outfit is perfect both when you're dressing up for the occasion and when you are dressing down. It will be great either during weddings or Highland games, especially if worn with the traditional Scottish outfit. On the other hand, you can also wear this kilt with a simple shirt for a casual look. Indeed, the Modern Macleod of Lewis box pleat kilt can just be added to any set of clothes.
To sum it all, the modern Macleod of Lewis box pleat kilt is a perfect blend of tradition and modern style. It gives honor to the rich history the Macleod clan had, and yet this could still look trendy to the wearer. Perfectly suited for Scottish heritage, it makes a perfect outfit for a special celebration of the heritage or simply for making a fashion statement.
