It is the oldest MacLachlan tartan actually bearing the name MacLachlan. The sett has been refered to as Old MacLachlan, MacLachlan and Hunting MacLachlan. Although the sett did not appear in books until D.W. Stewart's Old & Rare Scottish Tartans of 1893, there are samples of it in the collections of Campbell of Craignish in 1790 and in the Highland Society of London (circa 1816).
The following table defines the sett thread counts for this tartan.
| Yellow | White | Black | Green | Yellow | White | Red |
