While BEEDEE is correct with the horse hair being associated with the regimental look, I personally believe that there should be a renaissance of sorts for this style into the civilian world. If you look at 18th and 19th century portraits and prints, hair sporrans were for crofter and laird alike. My avatar should attest to my ideas and I'm personally trying my best to reintroduce this style to anyone who will look, or listen at or to me! I am 100% into the hair sporran these days and thats about all I'm wearing with my kilts. I have INCREDIBLE RESPONSE everywhere I go.
