    People often mix it up with a bearskin, the even taller black fur hat worn by the Foot Guards you see outside palaces. A busby is usually a bit shorter, and it often has a cloth bag hanging down one side. Though actually, even British speakers get the two hats confused, so if you mix them up you are in good company — but a careful book will keep them apart.
