This collar is handmade out of Biothane and it has a width of approximately 1".

Sizing:

To measure your dogs neck, use a soft measuring tape and measure their neck where their collar will sit comfortably. If your dogs neck measures between sizes, I suggest going with the smaller size of collar, unless your dog is still growing. For example, if your full grown dogs neck measures 15", they will fit a small or medium collar. However, I would recommend getting a size small. 

Size Chart:

Extra Small - 8-12"

Small - 12-16"

Medium - 15-19"

Large - 18-22"

Extra Large - 21-25"

The biothane we use for our collars is called Beta Biothane and it has a soft coating that gives it the look and feel of leather. It has a low gloss or matte appearance and is soft and very flexible. It will hold its flexibility even in very cold weather, and is waterproof and lightweight.

The hardware used for this collar is solid brass, with a PVD black matte coating.

"PVD = "Physical Vapor Deposition". PVD is a highly accurate plating process carried out in high vacuum environments at temperatures between 150 and 500 *C. It produces an extremely (emphasize EXTREMELY) durable finish to prevent scratching. Typically, black hardware that is found in the marketplace is not PVD, and is generally considered a black spray paint causing it to chip and scratch off within days. PVD plating is the process used to plate high end watch hardware, golf clubs, etc., and the only successful way to make a black that will not wear off."

Biothane is very easy to clean by simply wiping it down, or soaking and using a soft scrub brush if it gets really caked with mud. This is the perfect material for those adventure loving dogs!
