    Talking What about pockets?

    Well, I just realized that there is no room in my complete kilt outfit for documents, wallet and handkerchief. Sporran is too small for all of them.



    In Italy is mandatory to have identity documents. So I need at least my identity card, my driving license, and my wallet with credit cards. How can I do? And there is no room for mobile phone!



    You are not Italian if you have not at least one mobile phone! Is there a bag in the traditional costume? Sigh...

    My daywear Craigie Rob Roy is oversized ('cuz I asked for it that way). I've heard good things about the Freelanders and expect I'll have one this year. Also, if you ever wear a jacket or vest you can press those pockets into service.

    Bryan...1 cellphone, 1 DL/credit card/money clip, keys, and a hip flask: always in the sporran (sometimes my full wallet and a pager, too)...

    I use a leather fanny pack while at work. I've got a freelander on my wish list.
    Heres the type pack I wear at work. It's got plenty of room plus a seperate cell-phone pocket.

    I use a money clip to contain my folding money, drivers license & a credit card. Even my smallest dress sporran will hold that and a cell phone. But I do like the room in my freelander.

    Did you get that pack on ebay or local? I like the cell phone pocket. Looks like it has plenty of room.

    By the way, Hope everyone has a Happy Hollidays! Got my brother inlaw and sister inlaw coming over for dinner tomorrow He is a single malt man.

    Every sporran I have come across was more than roomy enough to hold lots of stuff. I never imagined any man saying that his sporran was too small. How large are these Italian personal ID documents? I would suggest just shopping around a bit to find a large enough sporran. You can also make your own basic one. The pattern is quite simple.

    A quick Google search yielded this link: http://members.aol.com/randwhit/patterns.htm#pouch My dad and I have made several over the years, we just made the pattern up ourselves or reversed-engineered existing ones.

    Yes, and the Sporganiser is an awesome idea. It will keep ya from losing stuff in your sporran when you do find a big one.
