To me the easiest solution would be to go with a plain leather sporran belt, which is super easy to adapt to a smaller size: just punch more holes, and chop off the unneeded extra.
Myself I would make my own leather sporran belt. You can buy a length of the 3/4 inch leather and use one Chicago screw to fasten the buckle on. I've made quite a few sporran belts and waistbelts over the years, with Chicago screws you can make a belt in a few minutes. For thickness, I prefer thinner/more flexible sporran belts and might go with around 6 ounce leather.
The caveat is that I take basic leatherwork and the required tools for granted. I have to keep in mind that many folks don't have that stuff around the house.
I do prefer plain leather sporran belts to chain straps, don't know why.
Not a sporran belt, but here's a waistbelt I made in around a half hour with a leather strap, three Chicago screws, and a buckle I bought in deepest darkest Appalachia nearly 50 years ago.
