Glen plaid

[2] Glen plaid as a woven pattern may be extended to cotton shirting and other non-woollen fabrics.

The name is taken from the Glenurquhart Estate in Inverness-shire, Scotland, where the checked pattern was first used during the 1840s by the Countess of Seafield[3] to fit out her gamekeepers,[1] though the name 'Glen plaid' does not appear before 1926.

[5] The pattern was later popularized by King Edward VIII when he was Prince of Wales.

Pee-wee Herman was famous for his light-grey Glen plaid suit, and U.S. President Ronald Reagan was considered "unpresidential" in a gray-and-blue Glen plaid suit on a European trip in 1982.

[7] In addition, Cary Grant wore a grey suit in a subtle Glen plaid during the 1959 American spy thriller film North by Northwest.
