After a trip to the beach, we discovered that a horrible smell lingered in both a leather and a cloth collar from Rover rolling around in dead crab. Even after multiple washings! We were looking for a collar that was strong, waterproof, and attractive looking. I bought 2 of these collars last December, one in black and another in Violet.
They have held up exceeding well to rolling, jumping,washing and trips to the beach. No wear marks, no smell, quick release bands are heavy duty. Recommend highly. I have a 90 lb dog and a 45 lb dog. collar is great on both of them.
