The idea that the sporran should end at the bottom edge of the kilt is entirely modern and flies in the face of tradition.
IMO, Looks better with the natural taper at the bottom, rather than the sharp corners. Again, IMO, with the sharp corners, it would look better at the same length of the kilt - otherwise suggest it is being worn too low.
Do you have any old photos of these long sporrans with the natural tapering at the bottom being worn?
