A-Hay Custom Sporrans Review

[TheOfficialBren]

Hello, Rabble! I was recently gifted a prototype sporran from our own Tom, owner/artisan of A-Hay Custom Sporrans.

It arrived in the post today.

Let me tell you...THIS THING ROCKS!!!
It came with a magnetic closure and an optional chain-connector. I opted to use my leather strap instead of my chain.

As to the size-it is quite generous. I was easily able to carry my phone, keys, and wallet with a decent amount of extra space left over. It's lined with a nice red leather and trimmed with some sharp braiding.

Tom made this sporran a while back as a painted design. He decided to remove the paint (smart idea...it really cleans up the design and shows of his SUPERB tooling).

I HIGHLY recommend Tom's craftsmanship and products.



I hope to commission a custom sporran from him in the future.

Without further ado...









THANK YOU, TOM, FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL GIFT!!! I shall wear it with pride and make an effort to pass along the good karma in the near future.



A QUESTION FOR THE RABBLE:

Can I wear this gorgeous thing for semi-dress occasions? Thank you for your advice.

I should point out that the sporran is not made crooked in the photo of me wearing it. I forgot to adjust it before snapping the photo so it was a tad askew.

As a owner of one of his sporrans, I have to agree that the workmanship is awesome. Congrats on yours !

Beautiful work, Tom!

And, yes, it would be fine for all but formal wear.

David, good to know. Thanks for the heads up.
