Security of the Sporran

[ozmeath]

I finally tried on my Sporran with a kilt in anticipation of going to an event kilted. I must say, that the presence of the sporran is kind of soothing. It is almost like wearing armor for your family jewels. It gives me an odd sense of comfort.

I do enjoy the sporran presence myself but I'm an on-the-thigh wearer. one reason is simple "bounce factor" when I'm walking, gets a bit anoying after 50 yards or so. and i think i'm used to going for side pockets to get stuff so it seems a bit more natural to me.

I don't even notice the bounce factor. Of course, each time I take a step I get shooting, searing pain up my left leg so that kind of keeps my mind off almost everything else.

As I've stated elsewhere, I'm also an on-the-thigh wearer. The "bounce factor" is the primary reason, plus, having only a Freelander, with those 8" long tie cords whipping around, the bounce factor turns into the whip factor when I get moving!

I do tend to move it to the center when I sit, to take advantage of the sporran's convenient ability to protect one's modesty!
