Why We Recommend It
A lanyard is one of those pieces of kit you use every single day in the field, so it's worth getting a good one. The Bisley recycled lanyard ticks every box — it's adjustable, well-made, available in practical colours, and at £6.50 it's exceptional value. The recycled construction is a genuine bonus: 40 plastic bottles go into every kilo of braid, and Bisley's production process is energy-positive. It's a small purchase with a bigger story behind it.

My friends, I hear that whistle every single day and the lanyard it hangs on matters more than people think. This one from Bisley is made from recycled bottles — which I think is brilliant, because I've seen what plastic does to the countryside and I'm firmly against it. Practical, adjustable, eco-friendly and £6.50. Craig has the olive. I'd have chosen pink. 🐾

Care Guide
- Rinse with clean water if muddy and allow to dry naturally
- Hand wash with mild soap if needed — the recycled braid is durable but avoid harsh chemicals
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry
- Store in a dry place — the recycled braid is resistant to moisture but benefits from being dried properly between uses
Professional Insight
The lanyard is one of the most overlooked pieces of kit in gundog work — handlers spend a lot on whistles and very little thought on what holds them. The Bisley recycled lanyard is a quality product at a price that makes it easy to have a spare. The adjustable design is the key practical feature: being able to shorten it when wearing a t-shirt and lengthen it over a heavy coat makes a real difference to comfort and accessibility in the field.
Training Academy Tip 💡
Keep your whistle at chest height on your lanyard — not tucked away in a pocket. In training, the speed at which you can deliver a whistle command matters enormously, especially for stop whistles and recall. A lanyard adjusted to the right length means the whistle is always instantly to hand, which keeps your timing sharp and your commands consistent. Consistency is everything in gundog training.
Complete Your Setup
Pair with an Acme 210.5 gundog whistle for the complete field setup. Add a treat pouch and a Bisley slip lead for a fully equipped training day. Available in four colours to match your field kit.
