Members venator Posted October 17, 2016 Members Report Posted October 17, 2016 So I have a client who wants a dog collar made in black on black. Black hardware, black, leather etc. She wants it 1.75" wide and I'm having no luck finding someone who carries black 1.75" buckles. Any suggestions? Thanks. Quote

bikermutt07 Posted October 17, 2016 Report Posted October 17, 2016 Maybe look for some wrought iron?Midevul style hardware maybe? Quote
Members rejerome Posted October 17, 2016 Members Report Posted October 17, 2016 Can you taper down the ends? That'll open up a lot more options on the hardware. Quote
Members rejerome Posted October 17, 2016 Members Report Posted October 17, 2016 A bit pricey, but here's a 1-1/2". http://www.belts.com/p3blbebu.html Quote

Members Beret Posted October 24, 2016 Members Report Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) I like to encourage customers to taper at the ends to at least 1.5". Keeps the bulk down and the taper frames the center panel nicely. Plus then I only have to stock hardware in 3/4", 1" and 1.5". Win win! Crazy Rebels offers black hardware on their collars. If you butter em up and ask nicely they may share their supplier with you Edited October 24, 2016 by Beret Quote
