Ebay sporran find- too big?
I found this on ebay, and thought it would make a great sporran for someone going for a sleek contemporary look. Alas, it's 7.5" by 10", so too big for most, I think. Great price for a nice leather purse, anyway.

Cheers,
John

I think the seller classified it correctly as a shoulder bag, rather than as a sporran.

Talking
You could almost go camping with one that large. Or carry your lunch in it.
It is a shoulder bag!

If I saw somebody wearing that as a sporran I would think... hmm, look at that guy wearing a woman's purse as a sporran.
