Town Dog Collar Color: Burgundy – a leather dog collar cut from full-grain leather rather than the bonded or split leather most pet goods use. Full grain keeps the outer surface of the hide intact, which is the layer that carries the strength and the part that darkens with use instead of cracking.
Leather on a dog is a long game: it takes on the shape of the animal, and it survives being wet repeatedly if it is real hide rather than a laminate. Hardware is where cheap versions fail first, so the buckle and rings matter as much as the strap.
Auburn Leathercrafters has manufactured dog collars, leashes and harnesses in the Finger Lakes region of central New York since 1950. Made in Auburn, New York by Auburn Leathercrafters.
