I had my dream sporran made a year or so ago. It is made of long white goat hair, with three tassels, and a sterling silver cantle bearing my shield. the bells on the tassels are silver, as well. I wanted a goat hair sporran that will become an heirloom, and that is what I got. It wasn't cheap, but I will treasure it always. It certainly is very traditional, but I can understand that it isn't for everyone.
