Eco Friendly Recycled Inner Tube Vegan Dog Lead
Upcycled Vegan Dog Lead
While we humans are focusing on eco-friendly and sustainable products, we shouldn't forget about our furry friends who also deserve the best from us.
This Eco-Friendly Inner Tube Dog Lead is made by hand using reclaimed rubber tyre inner tubes and colourful nylon webbing. The upcycled rubber makes a great vegan alternative to leather due to its durability and tactile nature.
The lead is water resistant and easy to clean, making it perfect for everyday use. It has a padded handle so it has a good grip and is comfortable to hold. The lead also comes with D-ring, giving you the flexibility to shorten the lead when required.
If your dog likes to be colour coordinated, you can also find a matching dog collar for the lead.

FAQ
Questions and Answers
Are our pieces comfortable? Suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes — our pieces are lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear, and generally suit everyone. Our recycled inner-tube jewellery has metal-free fastenings, ideal if you react to metals. Our earrings are finished with sterling silver, surgical stainless steel or brass hooks — nickel-free and kind to even sensitive ears. Please note our rubber pieces are made from reclaimed inner tubes, so they aren't suitable for anyone with a latex allergy.
How do I care for my piece? Is it waterproof?
It depends on the material:
• Recycled inner-tube jewellery – waterproof and hard-wearing; just wipe clean.
• Recycled inner-tube & army-canvas bags – water-resistant; they'll handle everyday weather, but as the zips and seams aren't sealed we'd avoid heavy rain or submersion.
• Recycled wood & skateboard – keep dry and wipe with a soft cloth; the grain and colour vary on every piece.
• Recycled brass – develops a natural patina; buff with a polishing cloth to restore shine.
• Resin – wipe clean; keep away from prolonged heat and direct sunlight.
• Recycled bike chain – keep dry and wipe after contact with water.
Looked after well, your piece is made to last
Will my item look exactly like the photos?
The design will be the same as pictured, but no two pieces are ever exactly alike — that's the beauty of handmade, upcycled materials. The threads and markings on each inner tube, the colours in every skateboard offcut, and the grain of each piece of wood are all different, making your piece genuinely one of a kind.
What is it made from?
Every Paguro piece is handcrafted from genuinely reclaimed materials — inner tubes from buses and trucks, recycled skateboards, reclaimed wood, recycled brass and more — given a second life by skilled artisans.
