    Looks neat. If it were me, I'd shorten the leather strings on the front a bit. Just throwing it out there, take with it what you will.

    They need to be that long to open the pouch fully I suspect

    Thanks for all the encouragement folks!

    Here's a picture of me wearing it for a size comparison.



    Caradoc, I'll see if I can get a picture of the back of it this afternoon.

    I think the sporran looks quite nice for a daywear/casual sporran. Frankly with that claymore in hand I don't think you need to worry about negative feedback on your sporran.

    Looks very nice indeed... One tip, though: stuff the sgian farther down into the boot if possible or you'll be snagging it on things that you don't want to snag.

    You want just enough sticking out that you can grab it with a thumb and finger, or thumb and two fingers.

    (That's not a style comment, just functionality and ease-of-wear!)
