Seeking leather 'cargo' sporrtan

[Highwayman]

I'm getting ready for my first Tartan ball in November, and it calls for a nicer sporran than my Stillwater nylon cargo sporran. However, due to finances and my own personal taste, I'm seeking something in leather rather than fur because I simply cannot push myself to wear or buy that style. I'm well-aware of the all-leather Nightstalker which seems like a first choice, but I've never seen it available for sale since I got into this hobby. I've also seen a couple other similar models, but again, usually out of stock or not currently being sold. I'm looking for a more affordable black leather model with enough space to hold some generous pocket real estate, ideally with a divider or two or an extra smaller pocket. As low a cost as possible without it being made of styrofoam.

Hi Highwayman, I don't know what budget you have? but have you had a look at skyravenwolf site aka Chris Hurst, she's in the UK, she can make you whatever you want, and remember the prices include VAT and I don't think they'll apply to you? just a thought. Kit

USA Kilts? eBay? You might also post a "WTB" (wanted to buy) in the For Sale forum

I'm not sure if they're still available, but I know that our own Steve Ashton, forum owner and proprietor of Freedom Kilts, had some very nice "carry all" sporrans made up a year or two ago. I've seen one in person and was most impressed with the amount of stuff that could be carried in it!

Here's a link to the original thread: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...sporran-76668/

You might contact Steve and inquire.

If your planning to dance at all, you may wish to reconsider the "lap based carry-all". Neither graceful nor comfortable! (You'll find out what it mean.....) There are a number of very nice plain black leather sporrans available that would be more suited to a tartan ball than the lap luggage...
Although these folks may be a bit higher priced they produce a beautifully made, simple sporran that will out last most wearers! I'm certain you could find something similar in an affordable price range, that would look a bit more complimentary than a carry-all and provide you with a reasonable amount of pocket space.

Perhaps try my type of Drover's Sporran, soft leather bag with draw string and flap over top. loop on the back, hangs on Kilt belt.
Mine was expensive as It was tanned to look old. Just stich up a bit of leather to suit your requirements.
Mine was originally used to hold a day's supply of porridge oats and musket balls.
Something completely different always catches the eye at an event.......Roderick.
