Let me start by saying that I don't even have a sporran in my possession yet, as I only have a Utilikilt at present. But 2 are on their way and I'm fairly positive they're going to come with chains. I'd like to find straps/belts (most of the posts I've searched for seems to use the terms interchangeably) to go with them. I think I'll first try to find a belt at a regular department store, but I'm not sure of what size it should be.
So, for a sporran strap/belt, how wide should the belt be and how do I determine how long I need the entire belt to measure? The ones I've seen for sale online seem to all be about 48.5". Will that work for my 38" waist?
