Question Ask for the Original Fox 40 NBA-style(Noose-like) Lanyard

Who could tell me that how to get an original Fox 40 NBA-style(Noose-like) Lanyard? I'm a Chinese ref, asked my cousin living in Las Vegas got 3 noose-like lanyards, they were just made by the ref equipment website but not the original Fox 40. And I would be very pleased to exchange some ref stuff with the original Fox 40 NBA-style(Noose-like) Lanyard some one could offer me . Thank you .

Fox 40 & Smitty are not the same lanyard. I have both and prefer the Fox 40 lanyard.

The smitty lanyard has a round slide while the Fox 40 lanyard is a rectangle. Fox 40's lanyard is also a higher quality braid and doesn't break as easily as the Smitty.

Alright, I'd never seen the Fox 40 noose before. I use the Smitty noose, so I know what it's like. Thanks Official99.

No problem... glad I could help. The Smitty lanyard usually sticks to your skin, especially if you sweat, the Fox 40 lanyard doesn't... also a benefit.

Good luck in finding a Fox 40 lanyard, they are hard to find. I had to buy mine at the Hoop Mountain camp store. Redding Trophey in Redding MA, sells them.

Where are you finding these lanyards Official99? I have searched and the only thing I find are the Smitty Noose (which is what I currently use). The only information I can find on them is on the Fox40's website. Even the sites they list on their "Shop" section don't sell the noose lanyard. They have every other Fox40 lanyard, except the Noose.

tjones1, the smitty noose you are using are exactly the noose what I'm using. Yes, I've been looking for the original Fox 40 noose for a very long time, and the only info is on the Fox 40 official site... not for sale.

They do not have a website, but if you contact them at Redding Trophey (look 'em up in the yellow pages) they will ship & bill you.

Good Luck.
