Something else to consider, as I hinted at earlier, is that horse hair sporrans can be less formal or fancy. The examples shown above (by others) are all made from white or lighter-coloured hair, and all have cantles (either leather or metal). Matt's is a little less formal with the brown leather cantle, and Colin's and Jamie's are more formal. But you can achieve quite a different look with a darker hair colour, and a simple leather flap at the top. Mine, for example, has a more subdued look (though it still stands out, being a hair sporran), and seems to give it a different visual appeal. I've worn it formally, but I actually think it's better suited in less-than-formal situations. The level of dressiness can go up or down, depending on the other accessories you're wearing. Wearing mine without patterned hose, for example, would dress this down even more.
