Dog Collar - Medium Brown English Bridle Leather

Luxurious leather dog collar handmade in our workshop on the Central Coast, Australia. Made from premium English Bridle leather from the famous Wickett & Craig Tannery. Founded in 1867, W&C is one of only two vegetable tanneries remaining in the U.S.A. We source this leather for its quality, strength and vibrant colours (keep a watch out for new colours added regularly). The leather also ages beautifully.

To make the best collar possible, this high-quality leather is matched with solid brass hardware for reliability and longevity. Solid brass has all the properties needed - resistant to wear and tear, cracking and disintegration. It was even the go-to material for ships cannon barrels, let that sink in. Naturally corrosion resistant, brass was traditionally used for ship fittings meaning our hardware is ideal for those non-ideal environments some dogs love. Our fasteners are all hand-set burr rivets - the same used for equestrian saddlery.

SIZE GUIDE/MEASURING:
Measure (inches) around your dogs neck where the collar would sit naturally. Make sure two fingers can still fit under the measuring tape for your dogs comfort. Use this measurement to select the appropriate collar size according to the diagram or drop down box on this listing. Or for a custom fit, send this exact measurement directly to us and we'll make a custom collar to this exact measurement. This measurement will be the middle/third sizing hole of 5 sizing holes on the collar, allowing the collar to tighten/loosen two more sizes each way.


LEATHER CARE:
Avoid extreme heat or freezing temperatures - these will dry out any leather and make it brittle.
Use a reputable leather conditioner every few months to replace oils naturally lost in the leather.
If your leather gets wet, allow it to dry naturally and avoid extreme heat such as hair dryers.
