I was interested to see that Slanj offers a red bridle leather sporran, too. We often see little pinked bits of red on sporrans, under cantles, but I do not think I have ever seen an entire sporran in red. Interestingly, they do not offer blue or yellow or green, just red. The do also offer one with a stamped skull and bones, so I am not suggesting that an offering from Slanj is a mark of tradition or authenticity, but I wonder about the opinions of the Rabble...
Personally, I do not care for sporrans in coloured leather. I prefer shades of brown and tan, or black - more traditional choices in my opinion.
Cheers,
