I've used it about 5 or 6 times outdoors. It's a hands-free item, making it convenient for walks. This hands-free leash with vibrant, pop colors is perfect for a summer vibe. Your hands are free, making it convenient for days with lots of luggage or when you need to use an umbrella. The original mountain motif woven name adds to the outdoor feel! The leash uses high-strength rope, also used for mountaineering and climbing. The swivel clip prevents the leash from twisting or tangling. It uses a Duraflex buckle, known for its strength. It's safe even for dogs that pull strongly. The rope leash part is removable. It can also be used as a standalone hand-held leash. Strength tested. Recommended weight is up to 15kg. *Do not use for dogs over 15kg.
