This morning came with super fast delivery the small package with us.
The packaging was nice and small, to my delight and fit-I find it bad when small products are always delivered in huge boxes.
Enclosed was a care instructions for leather's, is explained beautifully in what you have to do in order to have maximum enjoyment at the collar.
First of all to our demands:
We have a very active and larger dog (40kg) and took a wide and robust neckband for "the way" and if possible in a beautiful shade of brown.
Home already runs the dog for convenience without something rum around their necks.
Anything I write, therefore relates more to the event that the collar is sometimes racks. In the article description, this is not empohlen by the manufacturer, but I trust it quite to the collar.
The form: Very good, I find the width here. Especially when the dog something attracts on a leash, the neck is so protected.
I wear it not themselves, but it makes me a comfortable feeling;) I expect it in time a little softer and more elastic is-at the beginning of the leather is quite stiff and the closure is not so easy to play.
The color: as shown in the item screen very nice shade of brown; the lining is dark brown. The metal parts are brass-colored!
Price I would classify this necklace here rather in the midfield (. What Lederhalsb terms) and accordingly is also processing:
- Well sewn
- Strong leather
- The braided ornaments look very robust
- Metal components make it very stable impression
Disadvantages, although not harming the function:
- Fairly strong odor after unpacking-probably a mixture of leather smell and the adhesive used. I think the warp over time.
- At the top of the belt, the lining is not sewn to the vamp. Here could one probably later. which supersede
- In the area of the closure, the darker leather lining is also not completely sewn. Since the collar here is right on the dog collar, it can happen here also that the leather times takes some damage.
In addition, the collar is thicker than I would have expected. This is not so much by feeding but through the thick leather cover.
In my experience, the collar not the leather the vulnerability, but the metal fasteners and rivets. Here one would thus perhaps can choose a thinner leather and so the collar would be something more supple.
After my (non-expert) impression the leather coated in color. How things are with the durability, I do not know, but dirt and water droplets can be so beautiful easily removed.
All in all for the price a good and beautiful necklace.
We will keep it and We'll see how long it holds out. I must say that the old collar of our dog of the brand manufacturer and a whole bar was expensive and after just now 2.5 years, the buckle broke down and bent (it was designed for outdoor use and should extra-robust be).
