The Hawick Tartan
Created to incorporate 7 colours (first modern machine production of a seven colour tartan), each of which depicts a piece of Hawick's historical or current day attributes, this fabric tells the proud story of the town and its people. These colours are Royal Blue & Gold from the 1514 flag, Field Green of Hawick Rugby Club, Navy & White for Hawick High School, Red to represent the bloody Battle of Flodden in 1513, and the Dark Green base of the Douglas Tartan to recognise the towns historical connection with the clan.
