    A fur sporran is generally for more formal attire so go with the plain leather as mentioned above.

    By the way...tweed shoes?

    I'll have to agree with this. You might be able to pull off a fur sporran with a non-formal jacket and tie, but not with a polo shirt.

    Even though some "purest" say that fur sporrans can go with everything, and others contend that fur is for hunting only, modern usage normally reserves fur for more dressy times.

    Go with something casual. - I would wear a belt.... only because I think it completes the kilt.

    Of course back in my pant days, I always wore a belt with everything also. Maybe it's a security thing with me.

    Stay warm, have fun, go proud!

    Guess I could take my brown belt. It's kind of on the casual side, and I think I would put the leather sporran with that. On the other hand, I'm not a very formal looking kind of guy because I have long hair that I usually put in a ponytail. That can always go in my collar though.

    I could go with a white shirt and brown wool tie. That brown shirt is one step down from that, but has a nice look to it with a collar and a few buttons. I hope polo shirt is the right word for that. I guess I should take both shirts and both sporrans, te he.
