    Sporran for Union camo kilt


    My latest purchase from Fredonline, an English e-bay seller of casual kilts and accessories. Its a sporran to match my Union Kilts Hunter Green camo kilt.

    The sporran came complete with belt/chain and cost about £16 including postage. On opening the packaging, the smell from the leather sporran and/or the glue used to attach the camo material to the front was rather overpowering but sooon dispersed in the open air.

    The sporran is of black leather material and is very firm. It has a single stud fastening.

    Looks good Alex.

    The camouflage sporran is camouflaged by the kilt!

    It does look good, nice that you were able to match the kilt.

    That's such a close match and yet it looks really cool!

    That is a perfect match, Alex. Well spotted.

    I have a similar combination with my KiltStore Green Camouflage 8 yarder from three years ago. The matching sporran also came from KiltStore.



    Alas, this kilt is now archived as I can no longer squeeze into it.

    Not sure I'd want a camo sporran.. it'd be too hard to find it

    Sorry Kallen, but I have no idea! I am not sufficiently militarily-minded to recognise the different camo designs out there. Kiltstore lists this one in three colourways - mine is simply "Green Camouflage", which description I accepted.

    A quick Google search indicates to me that it is "Woodland", but it does not state if it is "US Woodland". Sorry I cannot be of more help with this.
