Great thread folks! I for one feel naked without a sporran. It is functional in many ways to me. I can carry things there. Wallet, knife, etc. Also it serves to conceal uh... anatomy. I also find it helps prevent any flashing incidents, keeping the kilt held down.

My wife does call it my man-purse, but heck who cares. Purse, like skirt, when defined are actually pretty accurate as far as descriptions of sporran, and kilt respectively.

My two cents.....
