    Maybe contact R whites in High Wycombe? You never knowthey may have some left.

    If not get the design off the internet and go to a Tshirt printers.

    No luck with britvic i emailed them and they said no they can't give any thing to cutomers even if i paid for it. I will look at the Truffle shuffle shop but i think i will have to get one made up from a copy of the many pics of him wearing it lol

    Mr Ben and Trip in Glasgow are worth calling. Mr Ben might have one, and Trip might be able to make you one.

    theres also a site called 80stees.co.uk
    I think you can go through quidco for both that, and truffle shuffle..............
    if you have the design on your computer, you could get some printing paper and iron it on yourself!
