What Makes a Quality Bondage Collar?

When it comes to leather goods, there are plenty of products out there that claim to be quality made, but few can stand up to the standards The Collar Shop employs on each of their products. In order to produce a fine leather product like a bondage collar, belt, or wrist cuff you need to start with the right materials.

 

Many companies try to pass off cheap bonded leathers that lack the suppleness and feel of a true leather. The Collar Shop uses higher quality materials like top grained lambskin which is prized for its softness and ability to hold dyes. Each hide goes through an oiltan process in which the hide is tanned once with a chromium salt, dyed with the color of your choice and finishes with tallow to give a rich oily or waxy look. This process ensures the leather is dyed through and protected.

 

Lesser quality products may only have a surface dye treatment that can easily scratch or fade, or be made from a rough leather that lacks flexibility. In addition, inexpensive hardware is often used on lower quality leather goods. These metal parts may discolor or break with continued use. The Collar Shop only uses reliable clasps and rings to ensure their collars will last longer.   

 

In addition each collar The Collar Shop produces is hand trimmed around its edges to create a rounded feel for added comfort. This finishing step can make a big difference when it comes to creating a collar that is comfortable for all day wear.
