This 100% genuine leather option is for the casual walker, and what it lacks in ergonomics and functional versatility it makes up for in a tasteful, durable, and simple design. It features a coupler for walking two dogs at once, and customers can choose between a longer (4.5ft) and shorter (4ft) leash depending on requirements. It can be used in multiple configurations, including hands-free when looped around the shoulder, or as a regular one-handed leash.
The cowhide, thin as it looks, performs well with large and energetic dogs, and only becomes softer and more comfortable with use. Customers familiar with leather upkeep know it will benefit from maintenance – leather wax after periods of rain, and double-checking the stitching every few months. But this does not appear requisite.
This model is perfect for the casual walker with an eye for optics, and makes for a thoughtful and classy gift – but runners will want to prioritise the other more shock absorbent, practical options above.
