You sound like my mate Belzeebob. He wears one every day all day for work. So much that folk know him by it and nicknamed him Indy (after Dr. Jones), he's worn out about 5 Tilleys over the years and they've replaced the lot and let him keep to kaput ones for his wall of memories.
The hemp one does age nicely though, mine looks awesome at the moment if I do say so myself. :D

Sent via smoke-signal from a woodland in Scotland.

It took me about 7 years to wear it out so that's not too bad I reckon :)

John Fenna does similar with all the ones he's worn out. Not sure how many he's up to now but it's a respectable amount :)

I wanted to buy a new lantern, but I can't decide which one. I want something small and light enough to backpack with when I've got my cuben shaped tarp out but big enough to light the inside of a canvas tipi effectively when I'm not backpacking - these may be two different lanterns. Hmm. I did buy a new firebox though, after reading a lot of posts on here!

Cannot see your pics lizz, a regular problem, any fixes from the mods, ad-blocker is disabled if that helps.

This works for me, compact and various light settings, robust too.

Treated myself to a candle lantern after trying a number of DIY ones that never really came off that well.
