    Well how about this: the things aren't sewn symmetrically, so it's crude-looking for starters, and the "Union Jack" isn't made right...



    a sporran with a properly made Union Jack would be sort of cool, but not this thing.
    I saw that one, too. It was a real head-scratcher.

    Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...

    Surely these things can't be serious. Oh well, the entertainment value is priceless!

    (please, keep them coming)...


    Cheers,

    Made by an Australian company called Nifty Notions to very high standards for people with very small hands.

    Just thinking, they may be onto something! What about a full mount of an emu for day or a swan for formal, you can bring the legs around back and use them as the sporran belt. You can then take the head and hook it up to the epaulet. Ties it all together, albeit a bit "Bjorkish" and entirely consistent with the garish nature of these abominations!
    Oh lord, I'm back to wanting to shove a sharpened pencil into my mind's eye to make this nightmare stop.......

    Oh well. Horses for courses, or something like that. It might be funny to buy this sporran and then tell people that if they want to talk to you, they must lean down and speak into the zebra ears.
    Hahahaha! Well put. Utterly hideous. These so-called "sporran makers" need to take a serious lesson from Kate Macpherson.

    So true Kyle !

    These " so called " sporran makers must fancy themselves as the " Andy Warhol " of the sporran world . The next thing we will probably see is a Campbell's Soup can sporran !

    My goodness?! The horror never stops!

    An emu!! or they could venture to try an octopus. Plenty of meat there for a sporran strap...plus the PETA whackos can't really complain since it's not fur. Lol.
