Getting a new sporran- need color advice.

[Bob C]

I wore a white rabbit sporran at my wedding, too. it looked great next to my bride's dress, but is too bright for pretty much everything else. For formal occasions, I now wear a gray rabbit sporran that I got from Frugal Corner (http://www.thefrugalcorner.com/sporrans.htm). I like it a lot and you can't beat the price. I don't care for that Saltire thing at all. Too costumey.

I've posted pics of my collection along with other sporran related items and here's my haypenny's worth of opinion:

Go with an L&M from any of the suggested dealers (USAK, Scottish Tartans Museum, and Stillwater) since they only selll through their dealers. You might forget the seal sporrans if you read my post on importing seal sporrans to the US. Bit of politics, but the short answer is that most Canadian sporrans are made with fur seal causing an importaion headache.

One advantage to L&M is that you can look at how your custom sporran will look on a tartan. find one as close to your clergy tartan as possible.

I have 25+ sporrans and the L&M build your sporran tool is a serious temptation.

Lead me not into temptation...
