My partner bought this for me, and it’s become my go-to. Being able to go hands-free is fantastic for walks where I need to carry things or just want to feel more relaxed. The webbing is soft and doesn't chafe. I love the Blue Pool color.
The concept of this leash is great for its versatility, allowing different configurations like waist-worn or over the shoulder. However, the webbing, while supple, feels a bit thin for my taste, especially when my large lab pulls unexpectedly. It feels like it could fray quicker than my previous leash. It’s also a little complicated to switch configurations on the fly; it takes a moment to get everything just right.
I bought this leash in Basalt Gray mostly for the hands-free options, and it works well for that. The webbing feels comfortable and the length adjusts smoothly from 2.5 to 7 feet. It's much better than trying to juggle a phone and a regular leash when my dog needs attention. I do wish the clips felt a little more robust for my stronger puller, but it's generally reliable.
This leash is exactly what I needed for daily walks and hands-free training.
The sliding V-rings are a nice idea but can be awkward to adjust quickly, especially with a wiggly dog.
