Have always thought that old purse straps from the second hand store could easily by converted into sporran straps. Then, I was in Target (department store) recently, walked by the women's accessories and what do I see, lots and lots of thin belts that in a large or extra large make EXCELLENT and very attractive straps. I bought a chrome mesh type chain belt to replace the cheap chains that came with the sporran; a reversable (cordovan/black) with a chrome buckle; and a brown with beautiful brass rectangles that fall right on my hips. Each belt was between $10 and $15 (US). Not kidding. It's worth a look.
