Professional Insight

A good lanyard is one of those pieces of kit that serious handlers take for granted until they’ve used a great one. The Keeper+ stands out because it’s genuinely handmade — the braid quality, the cartridge cap detail, and the brass clasp all reflect a level of craft that mass-produced alternatives simply can’t match. For handlers who spend long days in the field, the comfort and reliability of a well-made lanyard is not a small thing.

Why We Recommend It

The Keeper+ is the lanyard we’d choose ourselves. The combination of military-grade paracord, a genuine cartridge cap, and a smooth brass clasp puts it in a different class to the generic lanyards you’ll find elsewhere. It’s built to last through seasons of hard use in all weathers, looks genuinely smart on the shoot day, and at £9.99 it’s exceptional value for something handmade in the UK. The 15 colour options mean there’s one for every handler — from classic black and dark green to Camo, Partridge, and the eye-catching Mayday patterns.

FAQs

Is this really handmade in the UK?

Yes — every Keeper+ is individually braided by hand in the United Kingdom. No two are identical, which is part of what makes them special.

Will it fit my ACME whistle?

Yes — the brass clasp is designed to fit ACME whistles and most standard dog training whistles and clickers securely.

Which colour should I choose?

For the field and shoot days, Dark Green, Graphite, Camo, and Partridge are the most popular. For training and everyday use, Black, Navy Blue, and Sky Blue are classic choices. The Mayday, Flamingo Pink, and Neon Green options are popular as gifts and for handlers who like to stand out.

Is this a good gift?

Absolutely — at £9.99 it’s a brilliant gift for any gundog handler, dog trainer, or field sports enthusiast. Practical, handmade, and genuinely distinctive.

Training Academy Tip

ProTrain Academy Tip: Keep your whistle on your lanyard at all times during training — not in your pocket. Consistency in how and where you carry your whistle builds muscle memory, so that in high-pressure moments on the shoot day or in a field trial, your recall signal is always instant and reliable. The Keeper+ makes this effortless.
