Our Quick Release Dog Collar in BioThane® is designed for both convenience and security. It features a sturdy, all-metal quick release buckle that lets you take the collar on and off in seconds – no plastic parts here. For everyday wear, you still have the traditional buckle and D-ring for a secure, adjustable fit, so you truly get the best of both worlds.
Made from waterproof BioThane®, it’s strong, lightweight, and easy to keep clean. You can choose two colours for a custom two-tone look, and add a hand-stamped nameplate if you’d like silent identification built in. Handmade here in New Zealand, each collar is crafted to order, giving your dog a piece that’s as practical as it is personal.
Custom Fit: Crafted with a minimalist design and custom-made for a bespoke fit.
Waterproof & Easy to Clean: Made from genuine BioThane® - this collar is waterproof, odour-resistant and easy to clean, making it perfect for outdoor activities and everyday wear.
Hand-Stamped Nameplate: An optional solid brass or stainless steel nameplate can be securely attached to the collar with matching solid brass rivets. Your emergency contact details will be clearly visible, ensuring your dog can be quickly identified if they wander off.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Materials & Craftsmanship
BIOTHANE®
BioThane® is a premium brand of coated webbing, created by bonding a PVC or TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) coating to a polyester or nylon core. The result is a strong, durable, and waterproof material that’s lightweight, easy to clean, and resistant to chewing and scratching.
We only use genuine BioThane® because of its proven quality and reliability – unlike cheaper alternatives on the market, it maintains its strength, finish, and performance over time.
HARDWARE
The quick release buckle is crafted from plated zinc – strong and durable, though it may show some wear with heavy saltwater use. All other hardware, including the traditional buckle, D-ring, and rivets, is made from premium solid brass, chosen for maximum strength and to remain rust-free for life. Everything is held securely in place with solid brass rivets for lasting reliability.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Our dog collars are custom made with quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design that prioritises your dog's comfort and safety.
Our nameplates are hand-stamped. Minor tooling marks or inconsistencies in the stamping enhance the unique charm and human element of your custom dog collar.

Care Note
This collar is fine for everyday wear and can handle water, but we recommend rinsing after swimming and avoiding prolonged saltwater exposure. Over time, plated hardware may show signs of wear if regularly exposed to sand or salt.
Size Note
This collar is suitable for small, medium, and large dogs. The extra hardware adds a little weight, so keep this in mind for very tiny breeds.
If your dog has a history of being extremely tough on collars, such as, excessive pulling behaviour, we recommend using a specialty collar when attached to a leash or tie-out and keeping this biothane dog collar for 'good'. While our collars are extremely sturdy, and will withstand forceful tugging, there are determined dogs out there for which any collar is no match!
Please see our Sizing Guide for recommended collar widths.
