Sometimes we forget that we make amazing stuff and don’t blow our own trumpet loud enough. Well, for all those Lizard headgear wearers out there, we also make (amongst other things) a really cool and ridiculously lightweight and windproof jacket called a Zoot Suit – each one is individually made from redundant military parachutes, so every one is unique. Ideal for layering and the perfect piece of outdoor kit. If you’d like to order one or know anyone who might be interested, message us or go to our Ebay shop https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/The-Bus-Shelter-and-Original-Lizard?_trksid=p2047675.l2563
We’ve also had great feedback on it – here’s some of the comments from eBay and Facebook:
Chappy, it’s Phil (ex 131). I hope you’re well! I’m still using my zoot after 17 years. It’s been all over the world as part of my essential motorbike layering and camping kit. Highly recommended!

“One of you chaps made me a parasilk a while back. Original lizard? Well it literally saved my life the other day so thank you! Fantastic product. We had a freak rainstorm crossing the Kalahari on foot. Rains lasted almost 24hrs and temperatures dropped to -5C”. - jay

Greetings from Original Lizard in 2020.🥳
Been asked to make some plainer coloured beanies to add to our ebay Store, so have just included Olive / Red n Navy / Grey / Navy / Dusky Pink, along with a couple of other styles using Olive as the base! Think the really cold weather is peaking around the corner so be prepared!

Great to spot one of our Spike hats in use at the National Trophy Cyclocross Event at York last weekend. The lady owner said it was bought around 15 years ago and is still going strong 🥳

Had a few people ask about plainer coloured Beanies, so here's the first of the batch that have gone into our ebay store today - also sneaked in a funky Spike and our dog walker favourite, the Andean! More on the way! ❄️

This is a real "blast from the past" - a photoshoot at the very start of "Original Lizard" - fun times, and no, before you ask, we have no intention of recreating this image (although we haven't change a bit 😂)

We've been a bit remiss lately with making our hats, so have just revamped the website and have made more great Polartec 200 fleece hats to add to our ebay store. It's getting colder out there, so pull out your vintage Lizard headgear, or why not buy a new one from us!

Yeah, just received this great pic from Ben and his lovely girlfriend Charlotte - now that's what we call "tying the knot" - could be an alternative to the three legged race ... "knotted Te****le" race perhaps???

Clearing out some images and found a real "blast from the past" - the elegant Patrick at Hibaldstow airfield early in 2000 modelling one of Original Lizard's very rare but super cool dog jackets.
