Durable & Biodegradable
Stylish hemp dog leash with wooden handle
Stand out from the crowd with this handcrafted hemp dog leash, made with high-quality natural materials and expert craftsmanship.
The strong hemp fiber rope is secured with hand-sewn full-grain leather parts, while the wooden handle is hand-carved from the wood of a dead ash tree. The solid brass hardware ensures a rust-free life regardless of use.
The hemp dog leash is non-toxic, safe for humans and dogs, and fully biodegradable after its long lifespan. No animal was killed for its skin, and the rawhides are discarded by-products of the food industry producing meat for human consumption.
Choose from five vegetable-tanned colors and just start strolling, walking, and exploring!
Lightweight & Compact
Functional and versatile dog leash
Weighing only 300 grams, the ASH hemp dog leash is lightweight and easily fits in a small bag or glove compartment. The polished wooden handle feels soft to the touch and provides a comfortable and secure grip even when your dog is pulling.
The leash can be conveniently worn over the shoulder by attaching the carabiner to the O-ring when your dog is off-leash exploring the surroundings. Tie a knot at any length (to have a knob) for easy control in situations where you need your dog closer to you, such as in crowded places, dog walk training, and in new or social settings.
The standard length is 140 cm (without handle) and can be customized to suit your needs.
Heritage, Craftmanship & Technology
Handcrafted in Europe
The ASH hemp dog leash is a meticulously handcrafted masterpiece designed by the German brand Band & Roll. The wooden handle is custom-made and polished by skilled artisans in a small family-run workshop in Ukraine.
The rope stoppers are made of full-grain vegetable-tanned leather, crafted by master tanners in Italy using a combination of ancient recipes, centuries-old knowledge, and advanced technology. The rawhide undergoes an environmentally friendly transformation into leather through a process based on the use of natural tannins from trees and plants, aided by innovative new technologies and the slow passage of time.
