The island of Jura, located off Scotland’s west coast, is famed for its conical mountains – known as "The Paps" – and its vast herds of red deer that roam the island freely. Now, the spirit of Jura has been immortalised in a brand-new tartan: Jura Mist. 

The inspiration behind Jura Mist tartan 

Jura Mist is the latest addition to renowned Highlandwear specialists MacGregor and MacDuff's exclusive Mist tartan collection, following the launch of Harris Mist in 2023.

This range of contemporary, non-clan tartans also includes Arran Mist, Oban Mist and Islay Mist.

This new tartan draws on the natural beauty of the island of Jura, blending earthy browns, vibrant greens, and deep reds to capture its untamed essence. 

The brown in Jura Mist symbolises the fertile land that sustains both wildlife and the island's world-famous whisky, known for its peaty flavour.

The green shades represent Jura’s forests, while the red lines honour the red deer that roam the island, completing a striking visual representation of Jura’s rugged beauty. 

How MacGregor and MacDuff celebrate Jura’s natural beauty 

According to Holly Nicholl, marketing manager at MacGregor and MacDuff, “Jura Mist is a subtle yet striking tartan that celebrates the wild beauty of Jura. It captures the island’s earthy tones and vibrant nature, offering something truly unique in contemporary tartan design.”

"This new tweed was specifically created to pair seamlessly with our new tartan," Holly adds, "allowing for a sophisticated yet rugged look."
