Frequently asked questions about leather dog collars
Yes, leather collars are a very good choice. High-quality leather is robust, soft and adapts perfectly to your dog's neck over time. As a result, the collar fits securely and comfortably without chafing. With the right care, you will have a long-lasting, natural accessory that offers your four-legged friend maximum comfort.
Many dog owners swear by leather collars. Leather is breathable, skin-friendly and impresses with its durability. Compared to synthetic materials, a leather dog collar is more durable and develops a unique patina over time, making each piece one of a kind.
Yes, we use soft elk leather and high-quality cowhide for our leather collars, combined with rounded edges and pure brass fittings. This prevents irritation and the collars are also suitable for sensitive dogs. Our leather collars are available in various designs, so you are guaranteed to find a collar that is comfortable to wear for your dog.
Clean the collar regularly with a slightly damp cloth, use leather balm or special care products if necessary. Always allow the collar to air dry and avoid direct heat sources and strong sunlight - this keeps the leather supple.
For large dogs, the width and thickness of the leather and sturdy buckles are particularly important so that the neck is relieved and the collar does not cut in. Softer leather and lighter fittings are more comfortable for small dogs.
Particularly wide leather collars or robust oiled leather collars are suitable for dogs that pull strongly on the lead, as they distribute the pressure evenly. Good workmanship with a sturdy buckle or solid clasp also ensures safety. A pull-stop collar can also be useful if used correctly.
Why leather dog collars are the best choice for your dog
A dog collar is much more than just a practical item to put on a lead - it is a daily companion that combines safety, comfort and style. Our leather dog collars are the perfect choice if you are looking for a durable, natural and stylish accessory for your four-legged friend.

High-quality materials for durability
Leather is considered the classic material for dog collars. It is naturally robust, breathable and develops a unique patina over time. Properly cared for, a leather collar will accompany you for many years - even in wind and weather.
Different types of leather are used to make leather collars, each of which has its own advantages:
- Cowhide: particularly sturdy and hard-wearing - ideal for strong dogs.
- Elk leather: velvety soft, extremely supple and robust at the same time. Perfect for dogs with sensitive skin.
- Greased leather: particularly weather-resistant, non-slip and durable thanks to special oils - popular for outdoor use.
- Nubuck leather: velvety surface, elegant look and pleasantly soft.
- Nappa leather: fine, soft and luxurious - ideal for elegant styles.
All types of leather impress with their high quality, but differ in appearance, feel, care requirements and price.
SABRO leather collars in detail
At SABRO, we deliberately use cowhide and elk leather because these types of leather are not only particularly comfortable, but also skin-friendly and durable.
- Classic Standard collar - the robust all-round collar for everyday use, made from hard-wearing cowhide. Ideal for dogs of all sizes that need a durable and classically elegant leather collar.
- Classic Light collar - Light, soft elk leather meets Nordic design. Particularly comfortable to wear, even for sensitive dogs that value high wearing comfort.
- Classic round pull collar - An elegant round collar that is characterized by its special shape. It distributes the pressure evenly and is therefore also a good choice for greyhounds or strong four-legged friends.
All of our leather collars are available in different colors and sizes, so you are guaranteed to find the right one for your dog. Each item is made with attention to detail, has a timeless design and becomes even more beautiful with every walk.
Comfort and fit - that's what matters
A good dog collar must not only look good, but above all fit perfectly. Our leather collars adapt to the shape of the neck over time and therefore become increasingly supple.
Measure the circumference of your dog's neck at the exact point where the collar will later lie. We have already allowed for the necessary margin of about two fingers in our sizes. Then refer to our size chart to choose the right size.
A wider leather collar is recommended for large dogs as it distributes the pressure better. The result: your dog wears its collar securely and comfortably - without any friction or skin irritation.
Natural, breathable and skin-friendly
- breathable, so that your dog's skin can "breathe",
- free from harmful chemicals,
- pleasantly soft thanks to natural materials.
Dogs with sensitive skin in particular benefit from a leather dog collar, as it prevents irritation and fits gently on the neck.
Timeless design with functionality
Our leather collars impress with their simple, Nordic design with clear lines. Whether classic in black or natural in cognac - the colors are timeless and suit every dog. In addition to classic models, we also offer pull-stop collars, which are particularly practical for dogs that pull hard. They combine functionality with the elegance of a leather collar.
What is important when making a selection
- Size & measurement: Measure your dog's neck circumference correctly and use the size guide as a guide.
- Material quality: Choose high-quality leather, not cheap alternatives.
- Safety: A robust buckle and sturdy fastener are a must.
- Design & colors: Decide how you want to match your dog's character and your own style.
- Tip - consider price-performance ratio: Invest in a durable collar that will give you and your dog years of pleasure.
