Standard

No offense taken withregards the sporran hangers---believe me if I didn't have to use them I would rather not as well. But my height and clothes choices help hide a significant gut (I would call it beer-belly except I didn't get it drinking beer) that makes wearing standard chains and straps problematic with regard bunching up of the apron. I have considered the option of using a chain and just running it thought the two leather loops that usually come with kilt belts, and repositioning the loops more at 3 and 9 o'clock, so to speak, or 10 and 2, but then that really isn't that much different than using sporran hangers, no is it.

The jacket/vest combo when I bought it was on sale and described as a Scottish Holyrood, but in actuality is a Brian Boru, the Irish equivalent of the PC, and has antiqued silver round harp-motif buttons rather than the usual square ones, along with a shawl collar to the jacket and vest. Wears pretty much the same but does get a second look from other kilt wearers in the know. I am probably going to change the buttons at some point, when I get motivated.
