The cantle isn't my style but I wouldn't call someone a moron for designing it. The targe and cantle mix is growing on my. I have seen some nice Margret Morrison designed sporrans with this combination. To each his/her own.

I will agree that many black leather sporrans are dreadful. I am not fond of the Rob Roy style. Most look like someone wadded up a piece of leather and added a snap.

Finally, if you are wearing a tweed coat with a brown sporran make sure you have brown brogues on. I think brown sporran and black brogues is another faux pas.


I will try to remember to post some pics of my sporran.

1.) Margaret Morrison - Pierced celtic knot cantle, grey bovine fur with 3 chrome balls and leather and fur tassles

2.) L&M - Black leather with 3 tassles



Cheers.
