Do the Pringles have a Tartan?
 
The Pringles are a Lowland clan, not a Highland clan so we didn’t ever wear Tartan Kilts. However there is a ‘District Tartan’ called ‘Gala Water Tartan’, as this is where the Pringles lived we can use this if we wish.

There are three styles of Galawater tartan, as illustrated below:

Gallowater District Tartan

Gallowater New District Tartan

Gallowater Old District Tartan
