A kilt pin is worn on the right-hand side of the kilt, attached to the front apron, and should not pierce through the pleats or the back apron. It's typically positioned about 2-3 inches from the fringed edge and 2-3 inches up from the bottom of the kilt. The primary purpose is to add weight to the front apron, preventing it from blowing open, and also to serve as a decorative element.

Blair Clan History - The Blair clan is a historical Scottish clan with a lineage tracing back to the 12th century. The clan's history is intertwined with Blair Castle, which has been the seat of the Blairs of Blair for approximately 900 years. The clan's name is derived from the Gaelic word "Blar," meaning "open plain" or "battlefield," and is associated with various locations in Scotland.
The Blair clan's origins are linked to Jean Francois, a Norman knight granted the Barony of Blair by King William the Lion in the mid-12th century.
The clan's seat, Blair Castle (originally Blair House), has been the home of the Blairs for centuries. The castle's oldest surviving part, Comyn's Tower, dates back to 1269.
Notable members of the Blair clan include William Blair, who built the second tower at Blair Castle in 1203. Sir Bryce de Blair, a supporter of Sir William Wallace, and Roger de Blair, who fought alongside Robert the Bruce at Bannockburn, are also significant figures in the clan's history.
The Blair clan is an armigerous clan, meaning it is registered with the Court of the Lord Lyon.
The Blair clan motto is "Amo Probos," meaning "I love the virtuous". The clan crest is a stag.
