Was a long night ...
Im just home from a very quick trip to see Steve at Freedom Kilts.
I phoned there yesterday if there might be a all leather sporran belt (yes there was), then I inquired if you might have a new raccon in ("is this Craig?). Since it was 4 pm, there is no way I could get to the store before closing. Needles to say it was a very sleepless night. I made it to the store 10 minutes before opening, but very happy to see the 'OPEN" sign on.
I "ohed" & "awed", added my drool to theirs... "MAN! THATS FANTASTIC. BETTER THAN I THOUGHT." I picked a new all leather sporran belt off the rack & Steve fitted me up.

The new sporran in a Raccoon Full Mask made by L&M Highland Outfitters.
Ive seen many people here ask about the dimension of the full masks, so hers some pix.

Size of opening
Small review
The sporran comes with a D attachment & a chain belt. The quality seems very good. The opening is a little tight, as the head only goes as far as shown in the sporran picture. It may loosen up more with time, I dont know. If you have very large hands you might have issues.

So, is that critter a custom job or an off-the-rack 'coon?
Whoa! Lookout! The boy's hittin' them outta the park!
That is a handsome sporran, though. I can't even consider anything like that or my wife would punch me in the brain stem. Right after she threw up. Silly tree hugger.
