That's awesome, grant. A MOLLE system is a brilliant idea for that type of kilt.

Sporrans have lots of uses other than holding things. They are great when one sits down to help hold down the kilt aprons, better than a modesty snap. Well, I don't wear UKs out of the house much and seldom wear a sporran with one; but with all my other kilts I do wear a sporran including the Buzz Kidder kilt.

I have three AKs that came with the cloth sporrans. I have a UK Basic with HUGE cargo pockets, and two home made self colour knife pleat kilts. I also own four tartan kilts. I use a day sporran with all of the above. My home made self colour kilts were made without any metal fasteners. Between the Velcro, and some home made plastic clips and straps, there is nothing for the metal detector at city hall to get excited about. I put everything in the sporran--- and leave it there. I put on any kilt and strap on the sporran and then are ready to go. By doing it this way, I do not have to worry each morning where my stuff is. Change, keys, wallet, mobile, and ID badge are with me as soon as I leave the house. I have been known to put the sporran on when I'm wearing Jeans!.

Thank You!!! I thought I must be crazy for thinking about that. my wife gets on me all the time about the warehouse pile of stuff I carry with me everyday. And she won't let me dig my fanny pack out of the heap of 80's junk I have to wear it again. I don't have a sporran yet, but for the Mrs., this might pass muster!
