I only wear leather belts, or a braided leather hanger on my kilt belt. I have never cared much for the sporran chains.
If I’m wearing a kilt belt, I’ll use the hanger with it. It’s takes an extra few seconds to move the sporran to my hip when using the hanger, but I find the hanger to be more comfortable than using a sporran with the kilt belt.
I purchased my sporrans and belts from Craigie Originals. They made their kilt and sporran belts by gluing and stitching three layers together. The outside layer is elk, while the center is a supple piece of calf leather, and the back is comprised of the loop portion of Velcro’s hook and loop material. The Velcro loops cling to the wool without harming the material.
Unfortunately, Sue Craigie closed her business last year.
