    I was mistaken in the title, but can't edit a post with pics. Correct name for the large 'sporran' is a #6 Strap Bag.

    Go to http://www.nativearth.net/bagpage.html then scroll down to the Strap Bags. They come with a strap so you can use it as a possibles bag if you want. Strap unbuttons for use as a pouch. Has a 3-4" wide and 5" deep belt loop on the back so it goes on a sporran strap easily.

    There's a divider inside with a pocket on it, so there are two large pockets with a third smaller pocket on the divider itself. There's even a 12x12" size but the 9x9 has been plenty big for me when I need a big sporran.

    The NativEarth people are often at Ren Faires...I got my black one at a Ren Faire then mail ordered a brown one.

    Don't wear them often, but when I need them for things like hiking or games they're a God send. Top quality leather too. No cheapie stuff. A great value for the price based on the leather and craftsmanship.

    Been known to put the strap back on and wear it on my side as a possibles bag WITH a regular sporran to get even more room.

    Hunting Robertson - 1 5 yd in Modern, 1 5 yd in Ancient
    Robertson Red - 1 eBay tank, 1 CCK 4 yd, 1 6 yd PV handsewn (to replace the CCK)
    American Heritage - 1 USAK semi-trad pleated to the white stripe, 1 self-made handsewn 13 oz 8 yd pleated to the triple red stripes
    Sackett - the 4 yd Newsome box pleat, and several kilts' worth of PV waiting to be used.

    Different fabrics, different weights, different pleating for different appearances, different weather conditions, and different situations (kilt night or Burns night, running around town or running through the woods).
