No, not yet another: why do you wear a kilt?

(I haver not yet seen any threads about : why do you wear trousers? but that is beside the point)

What I'd like to ask is: why do you wear a sporran?

Not that I really want to know your answers (i can guess most of them in advance); it's just that apart from simple, plain day sporrans, I find anything bigger, shinier, or hairier offensively ostentatious -- if not downright ugly. And pipers' horse-hair appendages dangling below their knees are quite ridiculous -- how can they marhc comfortably with such an object?

I used to wear a day sporran, because everyone else did (and because I imagined people might notice a bulge under my kilt if I did not -- back in the days before skin-tight jeans appeared!), but I am happier without, and only use one when I need a safe place for my wallet.
