I have several sporrans from Craigie Originals. Sue Craigie was easy to work with, and her work is of high quality. She makes braided sporran belts and slings, as well as kilt belts.

Thanks to the Rabble for the great suggestions.
Turpin of Thorfinn Sporrans look really good. (I mean really, really good!)

Robert (or anyone that owns one), does the Rkilt "Tasmanian" sporran have a strap on the back so it could be hung from a sporran hanger like the one pictured above?
I have 2 of Donnie's Sporrans. IMHO you can not find a better one for the $$$$. Before ordering, contact Donnie & tell him what you are looking for. He will assist you. Both of mine Donnie made to my needs.

Thank you for the recommendation, Chris. One correction though. I cannot claim to be a sponsoring X-Marks merchant. The additional orders that might bring in could lead to divorce.

Thanks Dean. They do provide a certain versatility not available elsewhere.

You might be able to carefully slip something thin and straight through the loop to loosen the leather and slip the d-ring out. Even a little torque applied to it will break it loose possibly. My dress sporran was that way and the d-rings cam right out once I broke the bond.

Yes, Mikey. I ask my customers to send me head measurements so I can size the sporran properly. TCS 13 is lined with heavy-duty aluminum foil at Mikey's request. It keeps the government from intercepting his thoughts. When he has one.
