Oooooooooooooo I didn't know that. Now how to spell this?

Something like:

Okay, have pretty well tested this leather zippered sporran critter the past ten days.

Same convenience as the nylon for sure. The front wallet pocket seems just a hair smaller than my nylon one so actually keeps my wallet a bit snugger, but still easy to get in and out. Being leather figure it will stretch a bit with time.

Main difference I notice is the leather feels softer. I sit a lot and the leather feels more natural in my lap. Its a soft leather so its not like the hard leather sporrans that feel like a book in my lap. Its even softer than the nylon so instead of laying on me it seems to sort of follow my form.

The soft tassels don't make as much noise when I walk..and they look more authentic to me than the tassels on the nylon version. They still "thunk" a bit, but not as loud.

Then there's the "new car/sporran" smell of leather. Drove down to Hopi yesterday and I kept wondering where the leather smell was coming from in the car...then remembered...new leather sporran in my lap.

And, I didn't feel the need to move the sporran to one side when I drove. That's a first for me.

Jerry has himself a winner here for sure.

Wondering if maybe it'll also eventually come in a light brown/tan AND a dark brown?
