What is grease leather?

Would you like a leather collar or leash for your dog? The NOOFFยฎ collars and leashes are made entirely of greased leather, BioThane, or a combination of Biothane with greased leather.

Greased leather is a type of leather that only becomes more beautiful as you use it. It is treated with natural oil or wax, which is why it is called grease leather. The leather is always matte in color and does not shine.

Do you quickly get blisters on your hands because your dog pulls a lot? It is super soft for your hands and therefore you will no longer get blisters.

The color of oiled leather is deeply impregnated, so that the structure of the leather is clearly visible. But this also ensures that the color remains beautiful for a long time.

How do you ensure that your greased leather collar and/or leash remains beautiful?

  • the NOOFFยฎ grease leather collars can withstand a little water and mud, but not too much. Clean it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use cleaning agents or too much water. This can damage the leather.
  • Are there scratches on your leather collar? Then rub the leather with your hands, because then the oil in the leather will come back to the surface. The scratches will then disappear like snow in the sun.
  • In principle, oiled leather does not need to be greased with oil or wax, because the leather is already impregnated. Do you still want to do this? Then use an oil or wax that is specifically suitable for greased leather.
  • If your collar or leash has become wet, place it to dry on a clothes rack, for example, and not on a warm radiator, as this can cause the leather to dry out. Do not let your leash or collar dry in the sun.
  • Greased leather can transfer color if it gets wet on your hands or your dog's coat, keep this in mind.

Some advantages of a leather collar or leash:

  • it is a durable, soft and wear-resistant material. It can last for years, even if you use the leash or collar every day for your walks
  • greased leather has a matte look and does not shine
  • available in many trendy colours
  • it becomes smoother over time
  • grease leather is super strong, therefore also suitable for the strongest dog breeds
  • good grip, feels comfortable and soft in the hand and does not cut
  • simple, timeless design and therefore extremely durable

But there are also some disadvantages:

  • Also keep in mind that oiled leather can stretch slightly, so don't make your collar too big
  • Do not let your dog swim with a leather collar and/or leash. The more the leather is exposed to water, the more the leather will stretch.
