Crafted with Care in the USA

Every leash is handcrafted with attention to detail using genuine BioThane® and quality hardware built to handle whatever your dog throws at it.

Our products are crafted for durability and everyday adventure. They should be matched to your dog's size and activity level. They are not rated to specific pull or load thresholds, so selecting the right product for your dog is key.

Gear Up for Every Adventure.

Why Choose BioThane®? Unlike traditional nylon or leather leashes, BioThane® is completely waterproof, and it maintains its flexibility in all weather conditions. It's the preferred choice of outdoor enthusiasts.

• Genuine Beta 520 Standard BioThane®

• Machine riveted

• A stationary D-ring (of your hardware choice) on each
end (optional extra D-ring)

• Adjustable tab with o-ring

• Solid brass, matte black zinc alloy, or silver hardware options

• Made in the USA

Due to lighting and monitor differences, actual colors may vary slightly from what appears online.

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR DOGS WHO PULL OR LUNGE. Our products are not rated to specific pull or load thresholds — selecting the right product for your dog's activity level is key.

The lengths listed are measured from end to end. Length will vary when used around the waist or shoulder. Please keep this in mind when deciding which length to get! We are always here to help if you have any questions.

• Available Widths: 5/8" or 3/4"

• Length options vary (6' - 10')

Taking care of your Biothane gear is easy! Just follow these simple tips:

• Handwash your Biothane gear with mild soap and water, then dry it with a soft cloth.

• Brass hardware will develop a patina (tarnish) over time, but you can minimize this by regularly polishing and cleaning it.

• Don't worry if nickel-plated and matte black hardware shows wear and tear over time—it's normal and won't affect its integrity. To keep nickel-plated and matte black hardware in great shape, wash them with mild soap and water and dry them thoroughly after use, especially if they've been in water, like salt water, to prevent rusting.

While BioThane® is incredibly versatile and repels most of the dirt and grime it encounters, please note that it is not completely stain-proof in all circumstances. Regular cleaning is recommended to keep your BioThane® gear looking new.

We only use Genuine BioThane® on our gear. BioThane® is a Polymer-coated webbing. The Polymer coating makes this webbing a great leather alternative, as it is more durable, waterproof, and easy to clean. BioThane® rinses clean in seconds, will not mold or mildew, and will not absorb most common pet and outdoor odors. BioThane® is manufactured in the USA. Regular cleaning is recommended to keep your BioThane gear looking new.

Biothane Leash FAQ

Which hardware finish should I choose?

Solid Brass stays looking like new with regular cleaning. Silver (Chrome-plated) and Matte Black (Zinc Alloy) trigger snaps are plated finishes that stay sharp with minimal upkeep. Aluminum and Matte Black carabiners are extremely resistant to corrosion and wear and are very light.

Heavy use on plated finishes may affect appearance over time, but won't impact performance. Rinse and dry all hardware thoroughly after any exposure to water.

What width should I choose for my dog?

For most dogs, 5/8" works great for small to medium breeds, while 3/4" is ideal for medium to large dogs or those that need a little more control.

Can I get a custom length?

Yes! Our standard leash is 5 ft, but we're happy to make a custom length. Just reach out to us before ordering — we're happy to make it happen.

Can I use this leash in saltwater or a pool?

Yes — BioThane® webbing is fully water-resistant and won't absorb moisture or most common pet and outdoor odors. The hardware is where finish matters: Solid Brass handles water well with regular cleaning. Plated finishes (Silver and Matte Black) and Solid Brass should be rinsed and dried thoroughly after any exposure to water. Prolonged saltwater contact can affect the plated finishes over time.

Is this leash right for my dog?

Our leashes are built for active, adventurous dogs, but dog safety always comes first. These leashes are best suited for dogs that walk well on leash — if your pup is an aggressive puller or needs specialized training equipment, we recommend consulting with a trainer to find the right fit.

Do I need to condition my BioThane leash?

No conditioning needed! BioThane stays flexible and strong without the need for oils or treatments.

What's the difference between a trigger snap and a carabiner?

Our trigger snap is a spring-loaded clip — quick to clip and easy to use, perfect for everyday walks. Our carabiner uses a twist-lock mechanism, offering added peace of mind for adventurous dogs.

Our trigger snaps have a breaking load of 290 pounds, and our carabiners have a breaking load of 880 pounds.
