    Ok, I'm going to make a confession.

    Ladies' purses often come with a detachable shoulder strap that has clips on both ends. I found that such a strap, from one of my wife's old purses, works perfectly. Obviously, you and the strap need to be the right size to make this work.

    Ask your wives if they have old purses, and wouldn't mind parting with the strap. Or, look for one in a thrift store.

    Sporran straps

    Since you live in Fredneck, Westminster is not to far to drive. The shoe repair and biker leather shop on Main St. does leather work and repair. He repaired the snap on my sporran. Second generation shoe repair and leather workers.

    Nope, I've been Frederick since 1986 when I came here in the Army. Before that I lived in southern Illinois near St. Louis. I did drive past Gaithersburg for over 14 years while commuting to work.

    A bought a similar pair of straps from Stillwater not too long ago. When I'm going to be riding in my wheelchair for a long distance that tends to be the way I wear my sporran as well. However, I find that the chains are a bit long and make the sporran hang much lower than I usually allow.
