At Otis & I, we know that choosing the right accessories for your dog isn’t just about looks – it’s about combining safety, durability, and everyday style. That’s why we craft our leads using paracord, a material trusted for its strength, versatility, and low-maintenance charm.
Here’s why paracord dog leads are a smart choice for daily walks and big adventures alike:
1. Unmatched Durability & Strength
Originally developed for parachutes, paracord offers exceptional tensile strength – often supporting up to 550 pounds. That makes it ideal for dogs who pull, love to explore, or need gear that can keep up with their energy.
2. Water & Mildew Resistance
Whether your pup loves the sea, the rain, or just muddy puddles, paracord can handle it. It's quick-drying and resistant to mildew, so no more soggy or smelly leads after outdoor play.
3. Lightweight Comfort
Despite its durability, paracord is surprisingly lightweight. It won’t weigh down your dog or get in the way during active play – and its smooth texture is gentle on their coat and skin.
4. Vibrant Style & Personality
Paracord’s flexibility allows for a wide range of colours, patterns, and finishes. Whether you prefer bold tones or something more understated, your lead can reflect your dog’s unique personality – and yours too.
5. Easy Maintenance
Paracord is a low-maintenance material that cleans easily with just soap and water. It dries fast and doesn’t need special treatments, making it ideal for everyday use.
Built for the Bold. Designed to Last.
At Otis & I, our handcrafted paracord dog leads combine strength and style in equal measure. Whether you're hitting the city streets or heading off the beaten path, your gear should be ready for anything.
