    I was thinking that the sporran looked rather large in those pictures, as well. But it's the exact same size as the one I own, here:


    And I don't remember thinking it looked that large in the pictures that Rollo first posted when he got it recently. Maybe just the angle or a trick of the camera?

    In any case, the kilt looks grand on you!

    To fill in some details, it's an 8 yard, knife pleated, 16 oz strome Lochcarron Robertson Hunting weathered tartan. Beauty!

    Thumbs up Ferguson-Britt Sporrans ROCK!

    Speaking of which, how do you find the strap system? I am also fortunate enough to own a Ferguson-Britt, though just a leather one. And though Lamar's strap gives the perfect fit for my sporran, I'm wondering if there isn't a better way to go about putting it on? I have to adjust it with back to front and then slide the pouch around to the front. Is there a better way to do this or adjust it on the fly? Maybe it takes some work on the leather to limber it up?

    Just curious...

    Aye,

    Wes, I always put my sporran on this way (not completely back to front, really -- but the sporran is ovr by my hip). Then I slide it around to the front. This is no matter what kind of strap I use.
