Cognac is the warmest tone in our range – a red-brown leather that darkens and takes on a patina over the years. This is the lightest build we make: one centimetre of oiled leather, no stitching, no buckle, just leather, two rings and a snap hook. A dog under ten kilos does not need hardware, it needs something that weighs no more than necessary.
Small dogs up to about ten kilos. Pulling strength matters as much as weight: a dachshund that walks calmly is well served by 1 cm, while a terrier of the same size that pulls will feel safer on 1.5 cm. If you are unsure, get in touch.
Two rings act as sliders. Move them and the leash becomes shorter or longer – no holes, no buckle, no fixed steps. That way the same leash works over the shoulder, in the hand, or held short at the roadside.
Leather works: under daily pulling it gives a little over time. With natural leather that is normal, not a defect. What you can do about it depends on how the leash is made – on the infinitely adjustable models you can reset the length at any time using the two rings that act as sliders, so any give in the leather does not matter. Regular greasing keeps the leather supple without stretching it further.
Largely a matter of taste, and of how the leather works with your dog's coat. Cognac stands out clearly against light and red coats and suits brindle dogs. On dark coats it looks warmer than black and quieter than olive. If collar and leash are worn as a set, we recommend the same leather colour. If you are unsure, send us a photo of your dog and we will advise you.
Work in leather grease two to three times a year, more often with heavy use. Brush off coarse dirt when dry, never machine wash and do not use detergents. Oiled leather is highly water-repellent but not waterproof: rain and wet grass do it no harm, and after prolonged exposure the leash should dry at room temperature – avoid radiators and direct sunlight.
