What if I had a sporran with two HUGE tassels?

There was a picture in another thread of Sir Sean wearing a sporran with two tassels. If two are good enough for Sir Sean.........................

I prefer NO tassels on a sporran.

How do you like them apples?

LMAO! Can they be brass, or do they have to be flesh colored? LOL

My business day sporran is a former Army lower ranks brown leather one with NO tassles. I don't think we'll cary on with this line of reasoning. (Voice rises).

Cheers, Graham.

Brass! "Hey, check out the set of brass tassels on that one!"

That sounds just wrong!

LOL, ya, I guess the joke stops here...anyway, two , three, or no tassels- to each his own.

Late on this topic, but to chime in...my semi-formal DIY sporran has two horse-hair tassels. I've gotten all sorts of compliments on it, including from "traditionalist" Scots folks.
