    OP mentions "absent belt keepers" which seems a ref to some GoS' practice of supporting the front of the sporran belt/chain with the kilt belt keepers. Kind of a makeshift combo of sporran belt with the sporran hanger concept. OP's new gizmos are kind of like sporran hangars for use without a kilt belt. . . Bob is far from GoS, but tried some hangars and found that all they did was pull his kilt belt out of position. As the belt is (I'm told by many on this forum) supposed to be decorative rather than functional, putting additional weight on it just doesn't fly.

    Another solution that's been shown here is to loop the sporran belt through your kilt side strap/buckles, assuming you have one on each side (and not the hidden left-side design a la Mr. Newsome).

    Be interesting to see how the OP's gizmos fare. I'm seeing some waistband rolling/folding happening. . . but I've been wrong before!
