Tartan Sporrans

Yeah...a bit much IMHO. If you want to get the Clark thing going on....some nice diced hose would look even better

Brice,

Here is a link to Turpin's website showing the tartan sporran flaps: http://www.thorfinnsporrans.com/3.html

I don't care for diced hose, but one of these days I am going to get a pair of tartan-topped hose from Josh at SHO (Skye Highland Outfitters).

The nice thing about Turpin's snapflaps is you can have multiple flaps for the same sporran including plain leather, contrasting leather, fur or tartan.

These tartan sporran abominations first began appearing as women's "sporran style" purses, worn off the shoulder - nothing wrong with that, as women don't wear sporrans. But the whole idea of a tartan sporran with the kilt is somewhat akin to wearing a tartan tam o'shanter with Highland dress (which looks clownish). Stick with a nice brown leather sporran for daywear, and a silver-mounted fur sporran for evening dress and you won't go wrong.

There's a thought...why don't you make your wife a sporran style purse with the leftover tartan?
