Wearing your sporran on your belt?

[Spc. Scott]

ForresterModern ~ I think the hangers look fine as well. I own both and switch between them depending on whether or not I wear a belt and how I feel.

There can be times when getting the sporran off your lap is very beneficial. Some times I'll just rotate the sporran and strap so it hangs on my hip. The hangers are great as well.

This little device is something I came up with to convert a standard sporran into a belt pouch. I call it simply a sporran adapter (not USB compliant )

Salutations Neighbour,

I've never worn my sporran on the belt, but then again I only have one sporran and it's not fitted to do so. Especially as I have a 3" Britt-Ferguson belt (caint afford his sporrans by a long shot)! Nice it is, too. My own impression is that wearing the sporran on the belt was a hold over from medieval times in the Highlands, and would have been quite common during the hey days of the clan system and the Breacan Mor... Note: I am unable to sight any sources for this impression, just my amateur opinion etc.

I'll wager our friend Mr Newsome could shed some expert opinion on the matter, eh wot?

Cheers,
Wesley

Also of note: I don't always wear a belt... just something to think about.

Actually, yes, I do have a pouch style sporran that I occasionally just put onto my belt. It's a little more convienient that way.

Me!

I do, I don't use the chain...but I might in the future or something.

That looks good on ForesterModern. I always thought it looked goofy otherwise.

I did consider it, but then the description seemed to be for gentlemen who had prosperous proportions. . . . . so I got the belt, 'twas cheaper. (Spoken like a true Scotsman.)

I don't think thats true, I wear sporran straps and i like it better than sporran belt sometimes.
