This is one FINE sporran! The leather is beefy but SOFT! It feels sturdy and looks Great! It looks great with either Dress kilt or knockabout casual. Mine also has a cellphon e pocket on the inside and a detachable key ring. No more fumbling around looking for either. The detachable flaps are nice and I can order more flaps in the future to change the looks as I see fit. Eventually I will have to order a Fraser red and a U. S. Army flap as soon as I can order the kilts. Let me just say, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SPORRAN! The buttons look cool too. I've wasted leather trying, and I can't do as good a job as Turpin.
