A few weeks ago I received a package in the mail from Chris (Redshanks) and the Dunadd trading co. After a few emails back and forth about what I had in mind, (I wanted a smaller crown than usual) colour, Dicing etc. After we had got everything down and just as I was settling in for a nice long wait for my custom bonnet. It arrived, Took less than a week from sending the money through PayPal to a package arriving thru my door. I was going to Jock it but about an hour after submerging it I got worried about wrecking my new Bonnet I took it out shaped it and hung it up to dry.
Some pictures just to prove it really exists.

Ive just today bought some blue thread to stitch in the bow at the back and my cap badge to stop it flapping about.

And last but not least my apologies to Redshanks, I said I would post a thread almost a month ago now and just haven’t got round to it before now.

Nice!
& very vibrant! That's an eye catcher!

Very nice!

I didn't know they did different brim diameters.

I recently got one myself, the usual diameter. It still has that "new" shape, not the cool shape they get after a while.

Here it is in a photo taken just a couple hours ago...

Thanks, It is a little lighter blue that I expected myself but after a little

moment I really like it and wouldnt think too many people have one like it

Nice photo Richard. They dont usualy as far as I know. I got the idea from Jock and he suggested talking to Redshanks about it, Thats what I would suggest if you want something different too.
