Not is they are made along the lines of a traditional kilt, Graham, such as TFCK, KiltStore, etc. I DO wear sporrans (sometimes) with my TFCKS, etc.

No, I was thinking more of Utilikilts, Union Kilts, and others along those lines which, to many a trained eye, are not quite so 'traditional'. Of course, a lot of them have pockets - some hidden and some very obvious - but many of our kilted brethren still insist on wearing their sporrans with these kilts ....... to make them look more like kilts!!! What tosh! A sporran is nothing more than a pocket when all is boiled down to basics and, if you already have pockets in your kilt you do not need a sporran. It becomes superfluous.... and offends the eye!

Take my new Freedom Kilt, for example. I would NEVER wear a sporran with that - it would just look ridiculous.
