Basic kilt wearing questions:)

[Tobus]

I do not like wearing a sporran strap (belt). Maybe it is the way I am built but if I wear a strap I find that the bottom of my sporran is pushed into the kilt apron leaving an unsightly depression in the lay of the apron. The result is that I look like I am wearing a very baggy pair of shorts. It is also somewhat uncomfortable.

I'm at a bit of a loss as to understand how this is an issue with a sporran strap but not with a sporran chain? If your sporran tends to want to do this, regardless of whether the sporran is worn with a leather strap or chain, the bottom of the sporran is still going to do that, isn't it?
