    There is a dealer on eBay which I was considering using, and they are about £16.00. I cannot vouch for their quality. I find that some Balmorals have to big a "top" and I am loking for one which is a litle more likely a British Army beret ( but not quite that small on top).

    Scottish Tartans Museum...

    The Scottish Tartans Museum would be a good place:

    can you post the link? I'm starting to lean more toward the beret style as well

    Just log onto eBay and enter Balmoral cap in the search box.

    I have just received my new Balmoral from the firm off eBay. It is just beautiful !

    It has a double thickness brim; it is very soft to the touch; it fits perfectly ( they are made to measure); the quality of the workmanship appears to be first class; it cost me £20.00 including postage to UK, which is very cheap.

    I recommend them wholeheartedly.

    You can order them from:
    Lynda McDowell
    71 Moss Road
    Millisle
    Newtownards
    Co Down
    UK
    BT22 2DS.
