Choose your webbing: the standard 1" heavy nylon is rated at 4,200 lb; where the menus offer it, super heavy nylon is rated at 6,100 lb.
Buckle: a YKK plastic side-release buckle as standard, with a metal buckle available where the menus list it.
Leash and tag ring: a welded triangle ring, which the maker prefers to a standard D-ring for strength.
Sizing slide and keeper: metal slide on most designs (plastic on some older or smooth-nylon ones) with a metal or plastic keeper.
Made by a small workshop: Doot's Pet sews each collar by hand in the USA and gives back to homeless pets in its community.

How to measure
How to measure: take the measurement where the collar will sit, snug but not tight, and allow two fingers of space. If you land between two sizes, the one with your measurement nearer the middle gives the most room to adjust.
A collar that is too loose can slip over the head; one that is too tight rubs. Re-measure growing puppies every few weeks.
Check the menus above for extras: super heavy webbing, metal hardware, a martingale version or a matching 6 ft leash are offered on some designs only.
