01 · The problem

Why waterproof the difference makes.

After a walk in the rain or through the mud, you can smell it immediately: that typical wet-dog-leash smell. Nylon absorbs water and bacteria. Leather cracks and breaks. Within a year, your beautiful leash becomes a stinking rag.

Waterproof material solves that. Our flex-poly coated nylon absorbs nothing: no water, no mud, no bacteria, no odor. Just rinse or wipe it off and it's like new. Every time. View our waterproof dog leashes.

02 · The material

Our material compared with leather and nylon.

We use flex-poly coated nylon: a sturdy nylon base material with a waterproof coating. Comparable properties to Biothane, but more flexible in hand. How does it compare to the classics?

01

Flex-poly coated nylon (our choice)

100% waterproof. Does not absorb odor. Just wipe off after mud. No maintenance needed. Lasts for years without cracking or fading.

02

Read

Looks nice, but absorbs water. Needs to be oiled regularly. Cracks when neglected. Takes on odors. Expensive to maintain.

03

Uncoated nylon

Cheap and light, but absorbs water like a sponge. Dries slowly. Becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. Smells after a month already.

03 · Dog leash

The waterproof dog leash.

Our waterproof dog leash is available in two sizes: Standard (dogs up to 36 kg) and S (90 grams, dogs up to 14 kg). Clip the snap hook securely and you have a comfortable handle - in the long position, that gives 168 cm (Standard) or 130 cm (S) of walking length. Want to keep your dog closer? Click it to the short position.

Do you want to walk hands-free? Check out our crossbody hands-free strap: the same waterproof material, but as a crossbody over your shoulder. Available in all four colors: Cocoa, Lilac, Moonlight Blue, and Moss.

04 · Necklace

The waterproof dog collar.

Same material as the strap, but as a collar. Sizes XS to L. Perfect for wearing a name tag while using a harness for the strap.

Modder? Rinse off. Beach? Rinse off. Ditch? You get it. Match with your belt and harness in the same color for a complete look. Check out our matching walking sets. Also, the poop bag holder is waterproof, by the way.

05 · Cleaning

Maintenance: just diverting and ready.

That's literally it. After a muddy walk: just rinse it under the tap. After the beach: just wipe it with a wet cloth. No special products needed, no greasing rituals, no washing machine. The material absorbs nothing, so there's nothing to clean. Just the dirt on the surface.

And what if you accidentally throw the belt in the washing machine? No panic. The material can handle it just fine. But it's simply not necessary.

Frequently asked questions.

Is your material the same as Biothane?

Comparable. Both are coated and share the same core properties: waterproof, odor-resistant, and easy to clean. We use flex-poly coated nylon, specifically selected for flexibility and grip.

Can I take the belt to the beach?

Absolutely. Sand and saltwater wash off easily. No damage to the material, no rust on the hardware (solid brass). This is exactly what it is made for.

How long does a waterproof belt last?

Years. Flex-poly coated nylon does not crack like leather, and does not discolor like uncoated nylon. The brass hardware does not rust. With normal use, the material lasts effortlessly 3 to 5 years.

Is waterproof also suitable for puppies?

Sure. Puppies are messy. Mud, pee, chew. A waterproof leash is the most practical choice during the messy puppy phase. Our size S (130 cm, 90 grams) is light enough for small pups.
