Product description

Meet the BalmyBillows™ 5cm Summer Collar - the widest, strongest, and most stable collar in our summer collection, now wrapped in a vibrant ocean‑themed design inspired by warm days, pastel tides, and playful mermaid energy. Engineered using our Lighter Combat® construction, this collar is approximately 100g lighter per size than our standard 5cm models, giving powerful dogs the stability they need without the heavy feel of traditional wide collars.

Built for strength, control, and comfort, the BalmyBillows™ edition blends professional‑grade durability with a seasonal, feel‑good aesthetic perfect for summer adventures, beach days, and high‑energy outdoor walks.

Constructed from triple‑stitched nylon webbing, reinforced with a 4mm Aluminium Alloy D‑Loop, and secured with our dual‑lever Combat® Clip, this collar is trusted by owners of strong breeds as well as professional handlers, police units, and working dogs worldwide.

Inside, the collar is lined with soft, odourless, quick‑drying neoprene, preventing rubbing and irritation while keeping your dog cool and comfortable in warm weather. The reinforced emergency handle offers instant close‑range control, making it ideal for powerful breeds or high‑intensity environments.

FAQs

What is the best dog collar?

The best dog collar really depends on the breed, size and activity level of your dog. Slip-on collars are great to assist training your dog that pulls, whereas a Combat collar is perfect for everyday use and comes in various thicknesses, from 2.5cm for smaller breeds to 5cm for XL breeds. Our pin buckle collars are also a great choice among medium to XL dog owners, and the Billowthane collar range is 100% waterproof, ideal for pooches who love water! Read more in our Collar Buying Guide to find the right collar for your dog.

How tight should a dog collar be?

Similar to harnesses, a dog collar should be snug but not too tight. We’d recommend being able to fit two fingers between the collar and your dog’s neck - if you can fit more than two fingers, the collar may be too loose and could slip off. If you can’t fit two fingers, it might be too tight for your dog causing discomfort and potentially breathing difficulties.

Do dogs have to wear collars?

It’s a legal requirement for dogs to wear collars with ID tags when in public. The tag needs to display your name and address to help reunite you and your dog if they ever get lost. We know that a lot of owners prefer using harnesses, but a collar and ID tag are essential to comply with UK law when you’re out in public, so make sure you’ve got both on if needs be.

How do you measure a dog collar?

To measure a dog collar, wrap a flexible measuring tape around the base (the lower sections) of your dog’s neck whilst leaving enough room to fit two fingers in between. A lot of collars are adjustable, which is ideal for a puppy as you can simply extend the collar as they grow into it.
