    Sporran!

    Hey you guys! Sorry for not posting. I've been really bus lately. But I'm happy. I finally got a sporran. The sporran Black Calf. Was $70 but looks nice. Bought some hose and flashes too. Now im just a Prnce Charlie jacket away from having full formal wear.

    Good to see you here. Congratulations on the gear. You'll be very happy once you get the charlie.

    I have found that few outfits are more comfortable or sharper looking than the charlie. Lot's of folks think of it as really formal and, therefore, uncomfortable. Nothing could be further from the truth if the thing fits.

    I couldn't agree more. I rented one from Kathy Lare for my wedding last July. I will certainly buy one some day... but there's a lot of tartan to be had first.

    No problem, it took me a while to get around to ordering it. I did alot of research first, as it is a big purchase and can be quite daunting, this is the type of purchase that you want done right the first time, I wish you luck and if there are any other concerns you have let us know.

    I would agree with thescot and tattoobradley, there is nothing like one.
    I am very happy to have my own now.
