Every of the dog collars is completely handmade to order for each particular dog, so any possible size can be made and the design can be fully customized. You can choose from many styles, colours of leather, buckles, decorations, etc. and we will create something unique according to your and your dog’s needs and wishes. I can also make you a matching lead.
SIZES
The length of every custom dog collar is made to measure so it will fit your dog perfectly. To find out how to measure your dog for a custom dog collar please visit the blog.
The width of the collars can be 16, 19, 25 or 30 mm depending on the chosen buckle.
I can also make shaped collars in any possible width (also more than 3 cm). These shaped collars are wider in the middle (this can be any size you wish) and in the ends, they taper to width fitting in the buckle (one of the sizes listed above). For example, 40 mm wide collar tapered to 25 mm in the ends.
You can choose from the following styles and most of them can be combined. I can also create a different style upon request (you can send me a photo or a drawing for example). I can make collars for cats too.
CLASSIC (PLAIN) LEATHER DOG COLLAR
- made from a single stripe of leather
- simple but beautiful – it highlights the natural look of real leather
SHAPED LEATHER DOG COLLAR
- wider in the middle than in the ends
- it distributes the pressure on a bigger area and a buckle of smaller size is used, so it's more comfortable for your dog
- the width can be constant all along the main part of the collar or it can be shaped into a greyhound/ whippet style
- can be classic, lined, doubled or padded
- possible to combine with different styles
PADDED LEATHER DOG COLLAR
- collar with a soft padding made from thin sheep and calf leather
- it gives more comfort to your dog
- possible to combine with most of the other styles
- available in many colours (see more below in materials section - padding leather)
- please notice that the padding adds extra width to the dog collar (about 6 - 10 mm)
LINED LEATHER DOG COLLAR
- lining (in the main part of the collar) with a second layer of vegetable-tanned leather, stitched along
- stronger
- a more eco-friendly alternative to padding

LEATHER DOG COLLAR WITH SMALL CRYSTALS
- glittery glass crystals in-stock colours (you can find all the colour options below in materials)
- genuine Preciosa crystals possible to order - single row or multiple rows of crystal chain (in the standard 25 mm wide straps we can insert up to 4 rows of crystals) - each crystal is stitched-on by hand - please notice that the crystals have more of a fashion character - I recommend handling the crystal collars with care and taking them off during bad weather

VEGETABLE-TANNED LEATHER
I use only high-quality Italian vegetable-tanned and English bridle bovine leather. Currently, I have in stock leather for dog collars and leads in the following colours.
PADDING LEATHER
If you wish to add some more colours to your new dog collar you can choose from these 18 beautiful colours of soft (European, mostly Italian) sheep and calf leather. They are primarily used for soft padding but they can be also used for specials such as colourful piping.
HARDWARE
The dog collars are available with durable and rust-resistant solid brass (golden colour) and stainless steel (silver colour) fittings in several styles and sizes.
For each size and colour, there's a suitable D-ring for attaching the lead.
I have now in stock the following combinations:
(There's also a chrome-plated buckle and matching strap loop with crystals (13 mm) but notice that it has more fashion character and it's suitable for small dogs. If you're looking for something more strong and durable I recommend you to pick from the other buckle options.)
THREADS
Normally I use for the stitching a colour of thread matching with the vegetable-tanned leather but on request, a different colour can be used. I have threads in colours to match all of the leather hides.
DECORATIONS
crystal chains
There are available 12 colours from both silver base and golden base crystal chains to match with our stainless steel and solid brass fittings. The size of the crystals is 4 mm in diameter.
All crystals are made from glass so they reflect the light better and their colour is more stable in comparison with acrylic/ plastic crystals. The crystal chains can be combined to create a unique design.
studs, rivets and other metal decorations
Even though I try my best, the colour representation can’t be 100% accurate and it may slightly vary from reality depending on screen type, browser settings and some other factors. If the exact colour is of high importance, please contact me - there is a possibility to send the physical samples of materials upon request.
If you are interested in ordering a handmade leather dog collar or dog harness, please enquire.
If you didn’t find what you were looking for, don't hesitate to contact me with your requirements. I can also create something special - what is not in the standard offer - and I can eventually stock in some more materials and different colours for you. Every dog collar is made to order so we can consult any special wish you may have.
