Just today I noticed a small amount of pilling on my semi traditional kilt. It seems to just be around the area where the sporran strap meets the sporran an is not noticeable when the sporran is worn.

My sporran is a hunting type from Margaret Morrison and the strap is the leather sporran strap sold by usa kilts.

Is there something I should be doing to prevent this or is it just something that I need to expect from the synthetic fabric? The pilling is very light so it’s not a huge issue, I just want to nip it in the bud if it indicates something that I might make worse.

Thanks.
