    . . .when else would it be appropriate to wear?
    Probably after the animal is dead.

    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    Your silver fox and silver cantle sporran should be fine for any somewhat dressy to very dressy evening war. Even during the day, if you're in a black argyl with a black four-in-hand tie, it'll do fine.

    It will be a little too dressy for usual day wear unless you're really dressed up. For that, almost any style brown sporran is fine. I'd go for a very plain sporran unless you can afford a nice pig skin or other pricier brown sporran.

    At least, that's what I think.

    And that's all I got to say about that.
    Jim -
    I am inclined to agree with you - particularly after viewing the smashing photo of OCR. I will see how it looks with my charcoal argyle tweed jacket. I think it will be just fine in the evening when I have on a nice jacket and tie. I will post pics.
