    Modified Sporran - perfect for Rugby!

    I go to the rugby quite a bit and when I'm in my kilt I wanted to make a wee bit more of a statement about Scots and Rugby - so I bought a cheap leather sporran (was going to make that too but didnt have the time, materials or knowledge) and modified it. I replaced the tassels and applied a leather logo to the flap.

    Thought I'd show you - as I think its one of a kind.

    One (very very very) drunk fellow scots rugby fan at a recent game in Wales wouldnt believe me that it wasnt shop bought as is... ;)

    I think it looks great, I am right now watching Utah being destroyed by BYU and waiting for the replay later of the Army beating Navy in college Rugby on ESPN

    Key chain tassels - what a great idea!

    I wondered why the thistle was askew, until I took a closer look at the fobs - and saw that's the actual logo!

    You know - with some minor refinement, I think that has commercial potential.

    Regards,

    This has the potential to open up a whole new world of sporrans - especially if the "tassels" could be easily changed.

    Hmm, shall I go with 3 of Worlds Best Dad, or shall it be the plastic flamingos today?
