    I wear one with most of my kilts because they have no pockets and I need someplace to keep my stuff. That and I think tartan kilts just look better with a sporran.

    Now with my Pittsburgh Kilt I don't, because it has pockets. And if I need a little more carrying capacity, I can attach the pouches that I got with it.

    I always wear my sporran. I don't like wearing the very stiff ones so I made one that's simply a fairly soft pouch with a flap. It's comfortable and doesn't get in the way at all.

    Do women typically carry their purses on them about the house? No. Then why would it be any different with men?

    Even wearing pants, I always empty my pockets as soon as I get home. No need to carry my wallet and car keys around with me when I'm just at the house.

    I take mine off when I'm home.

    Then again, I also walk around naked alot when I'm home, so keeping the sporran off would only be natural.

    But you DO put the sporran back on to answer the door, right?

    I only had the trad for a couple of days but it looks like I already found my way. When I come home I drop off the sporran and change my trad to SportKilt. Just better when lying dead on the sofa wathing tv and such. And no sporran. I can surely move my cellphone from table to another by hand, or even go to another room to answer it when its ringing! :mrgreen:

    Once and only once, I was walking around the house without the sporran and my lovely wife said "Honey, you look much better wearing the sporran". I wasn't sure if she meant with or without the kilt, so I always wear it now. It pays to keep the chief financial officer happy ;-)

    If I haven't ventured out of the house yet, no sporran.

    If I've gone out and come home, sporran.

    Occasionally I will take it off once I get home...all depends on, well, nothing really. Just if I want to or not.

    I never wear a sporran around the house. I sometimes wear one shopping if I need the pocket. I always wear one when wearing a kilt with jacket and tie.
