0 or 3 for daywear, 3 or maybe 5 "cross link" for a dress sporran. I'm not fond of the fluffy fur tassels...I prefer the "brush" type.

For semi-dress I prefer a leather sporran without fur...with a cantle and studded tassels.

I like the look of the classic Argyll and Sutherland badger sporran with the 6 tassels...will look great with a full dress doublet outfit :rolleyes:
