Helpful Addition to my Freelander Sporrans

[Freelander Sporrano]

The best way to secure the top is to tie the beginning of a bow when you pull the sporran closed. Take the lower drawstrings twist once (Cosmetic effect looks great) loop over lid decoration......

Ron I applaud your find We did think of this in the very beginning. However we wanted a sporran free of modern things like plastic and magnets... However what people do with our sporrans is up to them.

We have a similar solution using horn here's a picture with the drawstrings pulled tight(The middle horn tip can be drawn up to hold the pouch closed) I left it down to show it in the picture...Ps it's for sale too...

I remember that David, agree with the "natural" concept...I'm just a klutz and frankly, its hard to see over my beer belly to keep track of what I'm doing.

Thanks for the tip on the half knot deal.

Visions of a slip of paper with "how to" included with the sporrans.

Thanks for the tip on the half knot deal.

My history with the Boy Scouts is about to show itself...

It's not a "half knot." It's a "single overhand knot," or the first step in tying a square knot.

If you snug the sporran into "fully drawn closed" by the drawstrings (not the flap cord) and just toss a single overhand on it, it generally won't "flop".

No worries. For over a decade, the only sporrans I wore were the drawstring type, like the Freelanders.

Either a bead on the drawstring or a single overhand knot will suffice to secure them.

Driving with one that's loaded, though, is interesting. The steering wheel always wants to rub on the flap button/toggle, which makes for highly interesting sensations as one turns a corner, and the ribs on the steering wheel grip "rattle" the sporran.
