    That depends on a lot of factors. I have 2 horsehair sporrans. My antique civilian horsehair is much longer than the more modern military style. It all depends on the maker.

    If you look at the evidence we have, specifically the photos that have survived and things like the MacLeay paintings. Given what we see from those examples I would say that yes it’s an excepted way of wearing a horsehair sporran.
