Stormy Kromer and plaid just seem to go together. Like peas and carrots. Chocolate and peanut butter. Ida and George.
And it happens to be the time of year when we ask you to help us name new plaids we’re working on for 2015. But before we get to that, we thought we’d revisit a few fabrics you helped us name a year ago.
Thanks to Bill A. for suggesting “Frost” for our first design. This unisex plaid can be found in a host of new products, including The Original and Ida Caps with Hardware, and The Chore Coat.
“Aurora” was a name suggested by two blog readers – Jamie A. and Mandi. Thanks to you both for this picture perfect suggestion! Aurora is shown here in The Ida Outfitter Vest, The Flat Top Cap and The Button Up Cap.
And now, what you’ve truly been waiting for – a plaid without a name! This will be a part of our Fall 2015 collection, and hopefully, will carry a label that one of you suggests. We can’t wait to hear your ideas below.

It reminds me of a valley misted by dew.
Very classy. Thanks Sian.
“Superior” the blue and gold reminds me of the morning sun shining on the waves in the deep blue water of Lake Superior

Tundra

Pure Michigan plaid
Thanks Ken!
This one reminds me of fall on Lake Superior … How about gitchi-gami? Meaning ‘great sea’
Thanks Marcy. Great idea.
How about blue mac.
Reminds me of a tile job I did on a home.
I layed blue tile with macadamia grout.
Very creative. Thanks for the idea!
white pines sounds good, and the white pine is the state tree! What do you think?
Great idea! Thanks Robin.
Stonewashed. Reminds me of my favorite pair of jeans.
Thanks Kimberly!
How about AUTUMN? The colors remind me of fall.
Thanks Jess!
You may have already chosen a name for this pattern but I was thinking “Waterfall”.
Great suggestion Kelby. Thank you!
