Eeeek! Thank you Steve and MacMurdo for the references to my album photos (I have a lot more to add - it is sadly out of date now!) but I have to confess to wearing my sporrans just where they are comfortable - as Andrew states. I have eleven sporrans and they probably all sit in slightly different positions when worn, because of their shapes and weights. As Andrew also states, a "hand's width below the belt" is a good place to start, although I prefer a four finger width below the buckle, which is about the same thing!!

As we always state: there are no rules regarding these points and, since we are all built differently, we really have to find the best positions that suit us personally.

Finally, too low looks plain comical (and uncomfortable!), so if you are going to err, wear your sporran fractionally on the high side, but best of all, find the most comfortable position for YOU.
