prince of wales check perhaps is one of the most misused terms, the original of which was made for Edward VII when he was Prince of Wales. It is actually a very large check with a repeat of nine inches in bold red or brown on a cream ground with a grey overcheck. However, a misunderstanding arose when Edward, Duke of Windsor became the Prince of Wales and he favoured a black and white Glen Urquhart check and the two designs became confused in many people's minds.

GLENURQUHART: A black-and-white check, often confused with its cousin the Prince of Wales check, which was favored by Edward VII in the late nineteenth century. It became popular in the U. S. in the 1940s, reappeared in the 1980s, and has now triumphantly returned twenty years later. The patterned fabric (usually wool) can be worn as a jacket with jeans or as a power-player double-breasted suit. The only rule: The bigger the check, the more casual the look.
