A different kind of hair sporran?

[ccga3359]

Our clan tent at Stone Mt. was next to the Highland Cows pen, and I got to thinking - why do we never (or rarely, if ever) see a sporran that features the hide of this long-haired Scottish icon?

Why am I thinking that had you had a slow spell at the tent that somebody would be soon showing a proud pic of Highland cow hide Thorfinn sporran?

If it was a full mask sporran I think it would be a backpack. That would be great for the hikers and campers out their

I would highly recommend the accessory carbon-fiber frame when wearing this one!

A sporran with handle bars.....hmmmmmmmmm.

I can think of only two heilan' coo sporrans that I have seen in person - both that eye-catching red.
I'm not sure if I would wear one myself, but the look worked for the gentlemen wearing them.

I think one of the reasons that the hair of highland cattle hasn't been used for a sporran is its colour, which seems to be the same colour as most toupees one sees on the number 47 bus moving through Edinburgh traffic...

MoR, sometimes your delivery is just too spot on. good thing I wasn't drinking at the time I read ithis.

I did see one fella wearing a pair of boots made from the hide at the games, he was working around the live display near the Gordon tent on Saturday. I thought it very strange!

He was the owner of the coo ranch. had a sporran too, although I didn't much care for the style.
