    Funny, but I say the same for a chain strap.

    Yeah, it's all a matter of taste. Whenever I see a chain with casual gear, I just think, "No, no, no, no NO!"

    The only time I wear a chain sporran belt is when I wear my formal seal skin sporran. I do so because I think it looks better than with a leather belt.
    If I wear a hair sporran to to a formal event I will however wear a leather belt because I think it looks better than with a chain belt.

    I wouldn't wear a leather strap with one of those typical dress sporrans one sees these days (i.e. - sealskin, rabbit fur, etc), but for a hair sporran or a full-mask sporran I think it is perfectly fine!

    I typically wear a chain strap with any sporran with a metal cantle. I just like the look.
