Douglas

The Douglas clan practically owned the Scottish lowlands from the 13th-16th centuries. Their power was so vast, in fact, that Scotland couldn’t even contain it – Douglases moved to Sweden in the 1600s and the name is associated with Swedish nobility to this day. Not bad for a clan whose crest depicts a salamander on fire… There are many great clan slogans, but we think Douglas might take the cake – “A Douglas! A Douglas!” We like to imagine townsfolk pointing with glee as a noble Douglas passes through the main square, shouting out for others to come get a look. Douglases today can carry that celebrity air about them by donning the classic Douglas tartan colors.
