The Ruffwear Knot-a-Collar™ is a lightweight, low-profile everyday dog collar inspired by the strength and simplicity of climbing gear. Crafted from durable 7 mm reflective kernmantle rope, this elegant collar settles comfortably into both short and long coats, helping reduce matting while providing exceptional comfort for everyday wear.
Designed with adjustable sliding fisherman's knots, the Knot-a-Collar™ offers a customised fit for growing puppies and adult dogs alike. The anodised aluminium V-ring provides a strong and secure leash attachment, while Ruffwear's signature Quick Ring™, separate ID tag attachment point, and silicone tag silencer add convenience and reduce tag noise.
The reflective rope construction enhances visibility during early morning, evening, and nighttime walks, making it an ideal choice for daily adventures, hiking, travel, and outdoor exploration.
