Macnab Ancient Tartan Kilt
The name MacNab comes from Gaelic Mac an Aba, meaning "son of the abbot." The clan claims descent from Abraruadh, a royal abbot and a younger son of Kenneth MacAlpin, Scotland's first king. With roots in Glen Dochart, the clan traces its ancestry to the ancient Dál Riata and the House of Alpin.
Through historic marriages, Clan MacNab links to Scottish, English, and French royal lines, including Edward III of England, Joan Beaufort, the Plantagenets, and even William the Conqueror. Allies and rivals of powerful clans like the Campbells and MacDougalls, MacNabs played key roles in battles like Dalrigh, Kilsyth, and Worcester.
Despite losing lands during turbulent periods, Clan MacNab's noble lineage endured. Today, they are known not just for their Highland legacy, but also for royal Capetian, Norman, and Angevin bloodlines.
The Macnab Ancient Tartan Kilt showcases soft, earthy tones of green, blue, and faded red, echoing the natural dyes once used by early Highland clans. Crafted from durable acrylic wool , this kilt offers comfort, breathability, and a classic look true to its historic roots.
Ideal for formal events, reenactments, or daily wear, the kilt reflects the proud legacy of Clan Macnab, descendants of the “children of the abbot” and early rulers of Glen Dochart. The ancient tartan design honors the clan’s noble lineage and centuries of Scottish tradition.
