Upholding tradition

Handmade leather Day Sporrans

A classic take on traditional design for a contemporary world

Before the rise of the tailored kilt in the late 18th century, a belt was needed to secure the kilt and prevent it from falling down. It also served as a convenient place to hang a sword, dirk or pistol.

While the need to keep weapons close at hand has, thankfully, disappeared, the kilt belt and sporran have remained key pieces of traditional Highland wear. The sporran design has been refined over the centuries, and these beautiful day sporrans from Mackenzie reflect a more contemporary take on this traditional piece.

Our sporrans are custom made from a wide range of colours and finishes to make it perfect for you.

Our skilled artisans work with the finest leather from Italy, Spain and Britain, and use traditional saddlery techniques to produce handmade products that are as unique as our customers. All our products are custom made from a wide range of colours and finishes to make it perfect for you.

Since all our products are handmade using traditional methods in the heart of historic Edinburgh, your sporran has already been on quite a journey. Where it goes from here is up to you.

Just as we change with age, so too does your Mackenzie Leather bag. We use the finest leather hides which gains character as you use it.  Over time our bags develop a beautiful and distinctive charm.
