I'd be careful about that one. If you hang your sporran for storage, you run the risk that you will distort the leather straps through which your strap or ring keeper goes, and that then when you actually wear your sporran, it will jut out at an angle instead of laying straight and close against your kilt apron. If you are going to hang it, don't hang it by the belt strap or keeper, have it hung by some other part of the sporran.
