    I'm looking for one of these as well - a squashy kangaroo - but I can't find a stockist near me (Glos) to try them. I'm told that they can vary in size a bit and I don't want to risk £50 on one that doesn't fit.

    You could be in luck up there - try this link:

    proadventure in Llangollen has them.

    I know that's a bit further than 50 miles but it's the only place that I know of that has them in stock.

    Now sorted from Keswick went for a Barmah Bronco and had half the shop on to find one that fitted well so glad I did not get one mail order probably paid a bit over the odds but at least it fits

    Got mine delivered today from the Hat Company - fits a treat though I reckon this might be a stroke of luck rather than judgement. Can't wait to use it for real (rather than posing in front of the bathroom mirror...)

    Nice hats.

    Mudhuggers - I have let the hyperlink in as it is your first post. If you want to trade in the future or post links to your site you will need Trader status.

    See the FAQ link on how to do this http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53527

    Cheers
