On care
Leather is a natural material — colour can run if it gets properly wet, so avoid soaking it, let it air dry rather than using heat, and treat it with a leather conditioner about once a year to keep it supple.
Why we chose it
Bridle leather is a genuine step up from a dressed leather that cracks within a season, and it shows in how it ages rather than how it looks new in the box. It's worth the small bit of annual care for a lead that outlasts several nylon ones.
— Matt, founder
Size guide & how to measure
Leads are chosen by length and width rather than your pet’s body size. Pick the width to suit your pet’s strength and the length to suit how you walk.
How to measure
- Width: lighter, narrower webbing for small dogs; wider, thicker webbing for strong pullers and larger dogs.
- Standard lead (1.2–1.5 m): everyday pavement walks and training.
- Long line (3–10 m): recall practice and open spaces.
- Short / traffic lead (under 1 m): close control in busy areas.
| Length | Best for |
|---|---|
| Under 1 m | Traffic / close control |
| 1.2–1.5 m | Everyday walks (most popular) |
| 1.8–2 m | Relaxed walks, more freedom |
| 3 m + | Recall training, open spaces |
Always check this product’s Specifications for its exact length and width.

Full description
Leather leads outlast nylon ones by years if they're looked after, and fail years earlier if they're not — the material rewards a bit of care rather than being maintenance-free just because it says "leather" on the listing.
This lead is made from finest-quality European bridle leather, finished with a trigger hook and a clean, unfussy design. It measures 1m x 1.9cm and is rated to a maximum weight of 50kg.

Who it's for: owners who want a leather lead and are willing to give it the occasional bit of care that keeps it lasting years rather than months.
