Would you like to add a nameplate?

Give your cat the ultimate in comfort and style with our custom leather cat collar, made from beautifully soft Korba leather and paired with rust-proof solid brass hardware. The optional nameplate, featuring your cat's name and your phone number, is a great safety addition to help ensure your cat's safe return if they ever get lost.

Premium Leather: Crafted from 100% vegetable-tanned leather, our collars are coloured all the way through. The back of the leather has a suede-like texture, ensuring a comfortable fit for your cat.

Adjustable Fit: Custom-made to your cat's unique measurements, each collar features five holes spaced 1/2" (12mm) apart, providing ample room for adjustment. The collar length is tailored to your cat's neck circumference, with approximately 5cm (2") between the first and fifth holes. Additional holes can be added upon request.

Personalised Nameplate: Add a hand-stamped nameplate with your cat's name and your phone number. The optional nameplate is available in solid brass or marine-grade stainless steel, with 2.5mm hand-stamped letters and numbers on two lines.

Colour Options: Choose from 11 stunning colors of buttery soft genuine leather, each 1.2-1.4mm thick, to perfectly match your cat's personality.

Hardware Choices: Select from solid brass (gold) or solid brass with nickel plating (silver) for your hardware.

Safety Buckle: You can choose to include a Duraflex breakaway safety buckle, designed to release if your cat gets caught. While we recommend this feature for safety, please note that determined cats or those playing with other pets may pull the collar off. If your cat is small or lightweight, the breakaway may not work effectively. Use your discretion when deciding whether to include this feature.

Bell & Loop: Choose to include a rectangle loop with a high-quality jingle bell attached for an added touch of charm.

Give your cat a custom leather collar that combines elegance, comfort, and safety. Order now and enjoy a beautifully crafted, personalised collar for your feline friend.

Materials

Genuine Leather

Customisation Options

COLOUR
Choose from 11 colours in our range of buttery soft genuine leather (it is between 1.2-1.4mm thick).

LENGTH
Custom fit for your cat, based on his/her neck circumference . There is approx. 5cm (2") of length between the 1st and 5th holes. More holes can be added if requested.

HARDWARE
Your choice of Solid Brass (Gold) or Solid Brass with nickel plating (Silver).

Nameplate (optional): 50 x 9.5mm solid brass or marine-grade stainless steel. 2.5mm hand-stamped numbers/letters on two lines.

SAFETY BUCKLE
You have the option to include a Duraflex breakaway safety buckle (visible as the black clasp in the product images), designed to release with approximately 3 kg of force if your cat becomes tangled. This buckle transforms the collar into a 'breakaway collar,' allowing it to detach and help prevent injury in potentially dangerous situations.

We recommend choosing the safety buckle for added protection. However, please note that determined cats or those playing with other pets may be able to pull the collar off. If you opt not to include the breakaway feature, remember that the leather has little to no stretch, and your cat may not be able to free itself if it gets caught. Please also consider that the breakaway feature may not function for very small or lightweight cats that can't exert the required 3 kg of force.

Use your discretion to decide whether this feature suits your cat's needs.

BELL & LOOP
Choose whether to include a rectangle loop with high-quality jingle bell attached.

Collar Width

Leather Dog Collars:

As a general guide, we recommend that if your dog’s neck circumference is:

  • Less than 22cm (8.5”) or a puppy under 3 months old, choose a soft leather puppy collar.
  • 22 - 28cm (8.5 - 11”), choose a 1/2” leather collar.
  • 28 - 34cm (11 - 13”), choose a 3/4” leather collar.
  • 34 - 41cm (13 - 16”), choose a 1” leather collar.
  • 41 - 48cm (15 - 19”), choose a 1 1/4” leather collar.
  • 48cm (19”) and larger, choose a 1 1/2” leather collar.

BioThane Dog Collars:

The BioThane range comes in widths of 1/2”, 3/4”, and 1”. Because Biothane is stronger than leather, these widths are suitable for a wider range of neck sizes. When choosing a width, you can focus more on the look you prefer and the comfort of your dog, as the strength will be adequate regardless of the size.

  • 1/2” Biothane Collar: Suitable for necks up to 35cm (14”).
  • 3/4” Biothane Collar: Suitable for necks from 28cm (11") - 40cm (16").
  • 1” Biothane Collar: Suitable for necks from 35cm (14") and beyond. This width is highly recommended for most medium and large dog breeds.

General Tips:

  • Wider collars are stronger, so please consider this when selecting the width. For example, do not use a 1/2” collar for a medium-sized dog; choose at least a 3/4” collar or larger.
  • For medium-sized breeds and larger dogs, especially those that have a habit of pulling on the lead, we highly recommend choosing one of our D-End Dog Collars. These collars provide an additional layer of leather to pull against when attaching a lead to the dee ring, offering extra strength and durability to handle stronger pulling.

 

How To Measure

How to Measure For A Dog Collar

We strongly suggest providing an accurate measurement when placing your order. If you follow the instructions below, this will allow us to make a collar for your dog that will fit him/her well.

1. Using a soft tape measure, record the circumference of the neck at the point where a collar would naturally lie.

2. Pull the tape so that it is snug but not tight. Record the measurement.

3. Enter this measurement in the personalisation text box when prompted. This measurement will be the middle hole of the collar, we will add at least another two holes either side.

Puppies - If your dog is a puppy, please let us know and we will make an allowance for growth when sizing the holes for the collar. Please feel free to give us a range (up to 12cm, i.e. 24-36cm) so that we can make sure there are enough holes to suit your dog's growth. We can be very flexible with the number of holes provided in the collar.
