Question 1

How do I choose the right size collar for my dog?

Accepted Answer

Measure around the widest part of your dog's neck, then allow a little extra room for comfort — you should be able to slip two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. Small fits 13 to 16.5 inches, Medium fits 16 to 20 inches, Large fits 19 to 23 inches, and X-Large fits 22 to 26 inches. The collar is 1 inch wide across all sizes.

Question 2

What is the Guarda Pampa motif?

Accepted Answer

The Guarda Pampa is a traditional geometric pattern originating from Mapuche and Pampa indigenous cultures in South America. Stick & Ball uses the same motif across its throws, pillows, and poncho lines.

Question 3

What is the collar made from?

Accepted Answer

Argentine vegetable-tanned leather, hand-stitched with waxed nylon thread. Hardware — buckle, D-ring, and keeper loops — is stainless steel. The stitching pattern is formed by hand; not printed or embossed.

Question 4

How do I care for the collar?

Accepted Answer

Keep it away from moisture and prolonged sun exposure. Apply leather conditioner sparingly — patch test first, as vegetable-tanned leather will deepen in color with conditioning. Wipe clean with a damp cloth; do not submerge.

Question 5

Will the leather age and develop a patina?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Vegetable-tanned leather darkens and softens with use. The collar will develop character over time — the same way Stick & Ball's leather bags and belts are designed to wear in rather than wear out.

Question 6

Where is the collar made?

Accepted Answer

Made in Argentina by artisans, using the same vegetable-tanned leather supply chain as Stick & Ball's belt and small leather goods lines.

Question 7

What is Stick & Ball's return policy for dog collars?

Accepted Answer

Stick & Ball accepts returns within 7 days of delivery. No extended manufacturing defect warranty applies to pet products.
