    Hello, Chaps!



    I'm with those that suggest you buy the best day sporran you can afford, and start saving to add a good dress sporran later. Good luck!

    Welcome aboard from the highlands of Central Massachusetts. I think you can't do better than McRostie. A little over $100 and you won't need to think about another one ever or until you have extra cash. Looks good with anything. With or without tassels.

    There are a variety of nice colors. I got Dark Havana and it goes with everything. Great on the mountain, out for the evening.

    I own both of these and they are suitable for casual and daywear.

    Neither one will break the bank. When you can afford more, get more.

    I have one of these too, and love it, but it is in a higher price-point. The quality is top-notch!
