Sporran- often misspelt as 'sporan'

Sporrans available to buy online today- including a leather sporran. All Scottish made, and all at low prices. See our kilt accessories page to view our selection.

The word sporran is actually Scottish Gaelic for 'purse' and was originally a practical item but has since become a decorative item for highland dress. It is worn at the front of the kilt, and as the traditional kilt does not have pockets, the sporran served a practical use for containing money or other necessary items such as a hip flask.

Dress sporrans usually have chrome or silver cantles over the top of them, with a set stone, jewel or emblem on the cantle. They tend to be made from animal fur such as seal and rabbit. Day sporrans are typically leather and smaller than dress sporrans and have three leather tassles and celtic knots embossed in the leather.

Day sporrans that are needed for everyday modern use are becoming very popular- rather than traditional styles for weddings. Therefore we offer both dress sporrans and day sporrans in our online store at very competitive prices, along with chain for fitting. Not only are they affordable, but they are Scottish made, so they have the authenticity and quality you will most likely be looking for.
