Our Story — Jacaranda Collars

We're Sarah & Adam — and we make collars for dogs we'd be proud to own

Some businesses start with a business plan. Ours started with a gap in the market, a passion for dogs, and a workbench in Orange, NSW.

Jacaranda Collars is the creation of Sarah — designer, maker, and the driving force behind every collar and lead we produce. Sarah spotted what was missing: waterproof, durable, genuinely tough dog gear that didn't cost a fortune and didn't fall apart after a day on the farm, a muddy paddock, or a hard week's work in the Central West. She knew PVC webbing was the answer, and she built Jacaranda Collars around it from the ground up.

"We make gear we'd put on our own dog. That's the standard everything has to meet."

Adam handles the admin, the website, and everything behind the scenes — because behind every great maker is someone keeping the wheels turning. Together we work out of Orange in the Central West of NSW, the same town we both grew up in. There's something fitting about building something here — regional Australia is exactly the kind of place where dogs work hard, play harder, and need gear that keeps up.

Sarah

Founder & Maker

Sarah is the creative force behind every Jacaranda collar — designing, cutting, punching and riveting each one by hand. With a lifelong passion for dogs and an eye for what's missing in the market, she created Jacaranda Collars from scratch and keeps pushing it forward with innovations like the adjustable martingale with buckle and dual leads. She's also the reason the workbench is always a little chaotic and a lot of fun.

Adam

Operations & Web

Adam keeps everything running — website, Google Ads, admin, markets, and making sure orders get out the door even when that means big days and late nights. He also makes collars alongside Sarah, which mostly involves goofing off, making each other laugh, and somehow still producing brilliant work. It's almost the perfect partnership. Almost.

We still do the markets — and we love it 🛒

You'll still find us at local markets around the Central West, and that's never going to change. There's something irreplaceable about meeting our customers face to face — watching them pick up a collar, feel the quality, and understand immediately why it's different. We're genuinely proud of what we make, and the markets are where we get to show it. Come say hi — we don't bite. The dogs might.

Made by hand. Every single one.

Every collar, every lead, every martingale is handmade by us. No factory, no shortcuts, no batch production. Each piece is measured and cut by hand, holes punched precisely, and finished with rivets — a stronger, more waterproof construction than stitching that holds up to everything an Aussie dog can throw at it.

When your order arrives it's been made from scratch by the same hands that designed it. That's not a marketing line — that's just how we do things.

Sarah doesn't just make collars — she improves them

Our adjustable martingale with buckle came from Sarah's frustration with traditional martingale designs that have no buckle — meaning you wrestle them over your dog's head every single time. She solved it. Our dual leads came from watching how people actually walk their dogs. Every product we sell exists because Sarah saw a problem and fixed it.

Why Jacaranda?

Sarah has always loved the jacaranda tree — bold, distinctive, unmistakably beautiful. It felt right for a brand built on colour, character and a bit of regional Australian soul. If you've ever seen a jacaranda in full bloom you'll understand — there's nothing quite like it. That's the standard we hold our collars to.

What we stand for

🇦🇺

Handmade in Australia

Every piece made by us, every time. No exceptions.

💧

PVC that performs

Waterproof, odour resistant, built for real Aussie conditions.

💰

Honest pricing

Quality shouldn't cost a fortune. We keep it fair, always.

🐕

Dogs first

Every decision starts and ends with what's best for the dog.

We could have charged a fortune. We chose not to.

We could have built Jacaranda Collars around Biothane — it's a name that sounds premium and carries a premium price tag. But here's the thing: Biothane is simply a brand name for coated PVC webbing. The material is fundamentally the same as what we use. We chose to be upfront about that, price our products fairly, and let the quality speak for itself. You shouldn't have to pay a fortune for gear that genuinely works. That's not how we operate.

We started Jacaranda Collars at the local markets around the Central West and have grown from there — now shipping Australia wide and beyond. We're a small business and proud of it. Every order matters to us, every customer is real, and every collar that leaves our hands has been made with genuine care.

Thanks for supporting something handmade. It means everything.

Received my collars promptly. Great quality, beautiful finish. Very happy with the product.

Collars are superb super soft and flexible fit well

BEST EVER 10/10!!!

first of all i am a total gear snob! there are few and far companies i truly love and Jacaranda is a huge winner. you cannot substitute a good PVC collar, its so wet this winter, i really needed something that didn't need to be hung up to dry all the time, especially during club days and at sport trials where dogs are running on muddy ovals These collars are soft and flexible unlike other brands of this sort. i also found the sizing very generous. We normally use ruff wear collars which can go upward of $50 each, but you cant beat Jacaranda! under $20 , Handmade in AUS , Waterproof , Soft to the touch , Grippy (my new MUST for walking 3+ dogs together) and i trust these clips not to snap (i ordered custom from a well known CA company and that's how i found out we have good recall! thank you jacaranda , this is the kind of business we need to support, from farmers to city pups these collars are amazing for all <3

Super strong and really lovely colours!

We brought multiple different collars and leads we love the martingale sets, the training lead and ute straps we have a working pup and a house dog and they work great for both of them my house dog would break everything collar and lead we ever used and I'm happy to say that these have held up I'm a very happy customer we definitely never look back now

These collars are outstanding. The material is heavy-duty but soft enough that it doesn’t irritate any of my dog's skin. The buckle snaps tightly and feels completely secure against hard pulling dogs. I absolutely love the range of colours you can choose from. It has been through mud and water, washes easily, and does not hold odors. Fits all my dogs perfectly according to the size chart. Highly recommend these collars if you’re looking and needing something that’s durable and something that also looks nice! Great quality and bloody affordable!

Sarah from Jacaranda Colas was lovely she was able to answer my questions. I put my order in on the Monday and got it Wednesday in the same week.

We were ordering several different items but had some confusion regarding the name of the particular "pink" colour we wanted.
Sarah replied promptly to our emails and supplied pics/names so we could get exactly what we wanted.
Everything arrived quickly and we just love the feel of the PVC. It gives grip but doesn't rub or scratch your hands. Everything wipes clean easily and the colours are perfect.
We highly recommend Jacaranda Collars for quality and service.

We had some queries regarding colours when ordering our items. Sarah answered our emails promptly and with photos to make sure we could order exactly what we wanted. Great service and very quick for our parcel to arrive.
