    Ditto! I also have a leather sporran strap from Oconee which I actually purchased first.

    I have a fairly big belly and found that using the strap was inconvenient because it tended to sag down below my belly leaving the sporran inconveniently low (both from the standpoint of accessing the sporran and because it bounced against my upper thighs).

    The sporran hangers solve both problems for me. I've been losing weight and will probably eventually return to the strap, but for now the hangers are great! They also are much easier to attach and detach than the strap.

    Oconee Leather Works Sporran Hangers

    I prefer to wear a belt at my waist, even with kilts where it's not necessary. However, that leads to having 2 belts, since a belt at the wasit is too high to be the sporran strap. So I like sporran hangers. I just got a pair from Oconee Leather Works, and an extra to use as a key ring hanger. I love them already. The leather is fairly thick, but still flexible, the hardware is nice and solid. I have a pair from SWK that I don't like nearly as well. The learther is stiffer, and the hardware seems cheap.

    I use a combo I made of belt keepers/key chain. They work great.
