Stewart Coltman (27 March 1920 – 21 July 1999) was a Scottish international rugby union player.

Coltman was a native of Hawick and served as an officer with the King's Own Scottish Borderers in World War II.

A 14–stone prop, Coltman was strong scrummager and in the immediate post war years played for Hawick RFC, which he captained for a season. He gained five Scotland caps across the 1948 and 1949 Five Nations.

Coltman retired in 1950 after taking up a position with a knitwear company in New York City.
