FAQ

There are a couple of methods to measure for your dog's collar. The best way is to measure the dogs neck directly. Take a measuring tape and wrap it around your dogs neck just where you would like the collar to sit. No need to add extra room or pull tight, we will make it adjust comfortably from the dogs actual neck size.   
You can also measure from a current collar your pet wears. If measuring from a leather collar, measure from the fold in the leather (by the buckle) to the hole that is most used and the best fit for your dog. Measure a nylon collar from the start of the material on one end to the end of the buckle on the other end. 

Here at KoKoLati we seek to create works of art that double as durable equipment. We use paint that is specially formulated for use on leather . That being said, you want to treat your KoKoLati Leather product as you would a fine pair of shoes, to preserve the artwork. 

Avoid water - remove the product for swimming, bathing, etc.

For dogs, remove collars when left unattended.

For dogs, remove for rough play.

Condition the back of the product once a month with a non-darkening leather conditioner. We recommend Bick 4 or Lexol non-darkening.

Customizations

Our goal is to provide you with a custom, handcrafted product with a relatively quick turn around time.   Like a fine dining restaurant, we want to keep our menu small but each item artisan crafted from top quality 'ingredients'!  Here is a guideline of what we can and cannot do to make the collar a perfect fit for you

We do not offer fully custom designs. We do welcome suggestions for new designs!

Yes! We display each design on the leather we find best fitting.  You are welcome to request any available and in-stock leather color for the bottom layer of your collar. 

Yes! We display each collar with the hardware we find best fitting for the design.    You are welcome to request silver or brass hardware for any design.  Free of charge, just drop us a message before ordering. 

Any design, even if not shown with crystals, can have crystals added by request.  We only offer Swarovski crystals in 20ss size.   You can message us to know what crystals we currently have in stock.  (+$15).
It is up to our discretion how the crystals are arranged on the design.   *No more than two crystal colors on a design.  

Not at this time. This is an addition to our product line we would love to include in the future! Keep any eye out for updates.

We do not offer changes to the appearance of a design. We do welcome suggestions for new designs!
