The ShukaBlue Check leashfrom Hiro & Wolf is craftedfrom the tartan Masaiblanketfabric in blue, yellow and black with thick vegetable-tanned leather.
The fabric is backed onto tough polyester webbing andstitched together usingnylon thread.The leash uses high quality 'lobster claw' trigger snaphooks with spring-gate and d-rings made from nickel-plated solid brass, for that added security for large dogs (and small strong ones!).
The Masai 'shuka' blanketfabric is durable and has been sourced from and woven in Kenya, East Africa. Woven with the striking Shukapattern, thetraditional Kenyafabric is extremely hard-wearing, easy to clean and looks fabulous on both long- and short-haired breeds.
These collars and leashes are hand-made in the East London studioand rigorously tested by Hiro and Wolf themselves on muddy walks through Hackney marshes (grassland on western bank of River Lea in Hackney) and occasional shopping trips to Liberties!
Takethis leash with its matching for the most stylish houndin the park!
