Vintage Highland Gentleman Kilts - Sporran Style

Curated vintage Highland gentleman kilts featuring various sporran styles are meticulously sourced by our team. We proudly present a diverse collection of vintage and antique Highland dress photographs, showcasing a blend of true Victorian studio portraits and early 20th-century snapshots taken amidst the vibrant backdrop of Highland Games and gatherings.

These sporrans are not only a wonderful reference source, but they also provide a comprehensive view of the diverse styles from the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Ranging from the elegant simplicity of brown leather 18th-century designs to the intricate full mask otter and badger head sporrans, the collection extends to the opulence of full dress goat hair and horsehair sporrans adorned with silver cantles.
