Because of its exceptional strength and weather resistance, Sedgwick bridle leather was originally developed for horse tack. Bridles, reins, and harnesses that had to withstand English rain, horse sweat, and decades of daily use.
At PK9 Gear, we use Sedgwick bridle leather to craft heavy-duty dog collars and leads. The leather's density means it will not stretch out or lose its shape over time, even with a strong dog pulling on the end of the lead. The heavy wax and tallow content provide natural water resistance, meaning a run through the wet grass or a splash in a puddle will not ruin the collar.
On top of all that, Sedgwick leather develops a beautiful patina. Instead of peeling or cracking like cheap pet store leather, it softens slightly with use, moulding to your dog's neck while maintaining its structural integrity.
