I'd like some fresh ideas on sporran chains and belts what have you all come up with........

I only wear a chain for formal evening wear. I made this one for really high formal and I use a rather plain belt for all other times.

That is pure dead brilliant.

RKilts leather braided sporran belt. Custom made in colour choice.

One I've not seen done before, which I intend to try myself, is to make a maille box chain out of silver wire, should look rather good.

Here's the sporran belt I made from a small womans belt found at Walmart for $7 and a few extra parts. I like it cause it's reversable.
Black inlay side

All metal side.

Otherwise I just use a nylon strap with a ladder lock buckle on one end. It's a backpacker's tie down strap.

My favorite is still just a plain leather strap, either black or brown to match the sporran. That's about all I wear, formal or casual. Why mess with simplicity?

Once I get into some money (and other formal attire) I want to get a big fancy chain like James' or OFCJAX, and mount it to some black felt to stop it from wearing on the kilt.

Putting a black velvet backing on a formal evening sporran chain has a lot of attraction for me too. Sounds like a cool idea!
