Travelling the Road Tartan Kilt for Men

Travelling the Road is a recorded fashion tartan designed by Loll Golding in 2017. The design was created for people who spend time travelling and moving about on the roads, with each colour carrying a direct roadside meaning. Black represents tarmac, yellow and red refer to road markings, white represents centre lines, and green recalls verges and lay-bys.

Black forms the dominant ground, giving the brighter threads a strong backdrop. Red checks pass repeatedly through the sett, joined by narrow yellow lines, green bands and crisp white overchecks. The colours cross at close intervals, forming layered squares that feel energetic without losing the clear geometry of the tartan. Yellow and white stand out sharply against the black, with red and green adding warmth and depth.

The smooth front apron gives the dense sett enough space to remain clear across the front of the kilt. Evenly aligned rear pleats keep the checks in sequence and open neatly during movement, giving the garment a comfortable, structured fit and natural drape. A charcoal or black Argyll jacket works particularly well with the darker ground, with a waistcoat or plain shirt offering a more relaxed option for festivals and daytime gatherings.
