Chin strap for my hat, please?

Post by Banksy »

I've just acquired an old leather bushman-type hat, and am well pleased with it.
Except that it does have a tendency to go airborne in a strong breeze!

I've searched on the internet for a strap which can be tightened with a toggle (woggle?)
but I don't think I'm using the right search words. The strap would preferably be some
sort of soft or plaited brown leather.

Can anyone help, please?

Hello Banksy

Try searching for 'Stampede String'.

I believe there are plenty on eBay.

It worked, and saved me from losing the hat on a rather windy day on Llyn Brenig last week!
