Leather
All of our leather goods are hand crafted of 5-6 oz Genuine Leather
We do NOT use vinyl, imitation leathers, or thin scrap hides. We do however buy a lot of leather and suede, accordingly we are able to get good quality sides at a very good price. Due to this we can purchase our leather, produce gear and sell it for less then most can even purchase the leather for.

Horsehair
Like our leather, we only use genuine, high quality, tail hair. We do not use imitation hair, mane hair, or unwanted seconds. We do buy our hair in mass quantities, accordingly we get it at a very good price and we pass these savings on to our customers.

Hardware
Many different types of rings are available, some use cheap rings that can and sometimes do split because they are not welded or are thin. These allows the manufacture to produce the rings cheaper but they are trading off quality for price.
We only use good heavy welded D and O rings. Have a look at this collar. As you can see these are heavy D rings. They will not give out.
