    Sporran Flapping

    I am wondering if anybody finds that the sporran flap on daily wear sporrans is a cumbersome annoyance to deal with having to lift and hold it up with one hand while you retrieve your wallet or whatever else with the other. It seems to me (never having used one for anything other than ornamental and apron weight) that this might be a problem from time to time especially if you need to hold a wallet or phone while you dig deep for some keys or a tube of lip balm. I know there are hunter style sporrans for those who prefer and I wouldn't be surprised if this is why they exist. Someone with a roped carcass in one hand and only one other to fetch from the sporran ... Makes sense.

    I see a lot of gents wearing the flapped sporrans so it can't be a trouble to most if at all, but am I over thinking this? Who experiences this perturbation? Anyone?
