Leather Alternative (from apple waste)
A cruelty-free alternative to animal leather made from waste from the Italian apple juice and jam industry. Blended with polyurethane, it creates a soft, durable material. Unlike animal leather—which contributes to 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, consumes up to 15,000 litres of water per kilogram, and relies on toxic chemicals—this option is eco-friendly and sustainable.

Low-Zinc Solid Brass Hardware
Our custom solid brass hardware is durable, recyclable, and crafted with low zinc content to reduce environmental impact. It requires less energy to produce, minimises reliance on harmful zinc mining, and offers corrosion resistance for a long lifespan.

Short Supply Chain
The vast majority of our materials are exclusively sourced and produced within the same regions of Italy where our products are made. This reduces environmental impact, such as a smaller carbon footprint, while fostering strong relationships with our production partners and supporting the local economy.

That occasional bit of extra love and care will keep your items in top shape.

• Clean with a damp cloth; use mild soap if needed, and air dry.

Extra Care Advice:

• Rinse the entire item with clean water after extended exposure to the beach or saltwater. Dry with a cloth or allow it to air dry.
• Occasionally, use a soft toothbrush to remove any debris buildup between the smaller solid brass parts, like buckles or clasps.
• Avoid drying in direct sunlight or near heating sources.
• Do not apply leather protector or moisturiser.
• Do not machine wash.

The adjustable length leashes from our Mela Caspita collection are designed to suit dogs of all sizes and breeds

Use and Attention points

For first time users: Want to try the cross-body and hands-free function of our adjustable leash but haven’t used it before? We recommend starting slow. If you’re new to using a hands-free leash, begin in a quiet, low-distraction area like your backyard or a calm park. This gives both you and your dog time to adjust to the new walking arrangement without overwhelming distractions.

When using the cross-body and hands-free function in a busy area for the first time, keep your hand close to the leash. This allows you to redirect your dog and intervene quickly if needed, such as when your dog attempts to pull or step in front of you unexpectedly.

Please be mindful
Ensure your dog is comfortable walking at a consistent pace beside you before fully relying on the hands-free function. If your dog tends to pull, gets overexcited, or is easily spooked during walks, it’s best to wait before using the cross-body function. This is especially important when walking larger or stronger dogs, as their weight and pulling force could throw you off balance and potentially cause a fall.

Please note that our leashes are not designed to be chew-proof or chew-resistant.

We offer a one-year warranty on defects in materials or workmanship, excluding normal wear and tear.
