Waterproof Dog Collars - Handmade and built to last
Handmade Dog Collars Australia — Built to Last, Not to Replace
Every collar we make is cut, measured, punched and riveted by hand in Orange, NSW. No factory. No shortcuts. Just proper gear built for real Australian dogs.
There are a lot of dog collars out there. Most of them are made in bulk, stitched together somewhere overseas, and designed to a price point rather than a standard. They do the job — until they don't. Until the stitching frays, the webbing soaks up six months of beach swims and starts to smell, or the hardware gives out on a big dog mid-walk.
We built Jacaranda Collars because we knew there was a better way. Tougher material. Better construction. Honest pricing. And made right here in Australia by people who genuinely care about the dogs wearing them.
"Some of our very first customers bought their collars two years ago. They're only just starting to see normal wear and tear. That's the standard we build to."
How we make them — every single one
Every Jacaranda collar starts as raw PVC webbing and quality metal hardware. From there it's all done by hand — measured precisely, cut, holes punched individually, and finished with rivets. Not stitching. Rivets.
- Cut by hand — every collar measured and cut individually, not batch stamped
- Holes punched precisely — clean, accurate, no fraying edges
- Riveted construction — stronger than stitching, won't unravel under pressure
- Solid metal hardware — quality D-rings and buckles built for big dogs and hard use
- Quality checked before it leaves — because we made it, we stand behind it
- Zero returns due to faults — not one, since we started
Why PVC and not nylon, fabric or leather
The material matters more than most people realise. We chose PVC webbing because nothing else performs the way it does for Australian conditions — and we've never looked back.
❌ Nylon & fabric collars
- Absorbs water and takes days to dry
- Soaks up bacteria, sweat and odour
- Frays, fades and degrades in UV and salt air
- Needs replacing every 3 months with active dogs
- Stitched construction can unravel under stress
✔ Jacaranda PVC collars
- 100% waterproof — doesn't absorb a drop
- Non-porous — bacteria and odours can't penetrate
- UV and salt-air resistant — colours stay vibrant
- Customers still on their first collar after 2 years
- Riveted construction — stronger, longer lasting
The numbers behind the build
Built tough for every Aussie dog 🐾
Our collars aren't built for one type of dog or one type of life. From kelpies running fence lines in the Central West to greyhounds doing beach zoomies, from tiny dachshunds to absolute units of Rottweilers — PVC handles it all without flinching.
Working dogs
Kelpies, cattle dogs, farm dogs — full days of hard yakka in all conditions. PVC keeps up.
Beach dogs
Salt water, sand, daily dips. Rinse it under the tap. Looks brand new every time.
Adventure dogs
Hiking, camping, trail running — built for every chapter of your dog's adventures.
Suburb dogs
Morning walks, backyard zoomies, the odd muddy puddle. Looking fresh without any fuss.
Escape artists
Any breed that pulls or backs out of a standard collar — pair it with our martingale.
Best dressed on the block
Bold, vibrant, fade-resistant colours. Your dog will own every walk, swim and market day.

A nylon collar on an active Aussie dog typically needs replacing every 3 months — wear, damage, or that unmistakable smell that won't wash out. That's four collars a year. Our customers are still on their first Jacaranda collar after two years of hard use.
Even if our collars cost a little more upfront, the maths is simple. Better gear, less often. That's not an expense — that's an investment in your dog.
Handmade in Orange, NSW
We started Jacaranda Collars in 2024 — literally making the first collars on the floor of a garage in Orange, NSW. Every collar since has been made by the same hands, to the same standard, with the same obsession over materials and construction.
We still do the local markets because we love meeting our customers face to face — watching them pick up a collar, feel the quality, and understand immediately why it's different. That connection matters to us. These collars go on dogs we genuinely care about.

Great quality, quick delivery.
Thanks heaps! Glad you’re happy with the quality and it got to you quick 🐾
I am super happy and impressed with my recent order! I ordered 2 x 1.5m leads and 2 x 10m long lines... Best of both worlds! Perfect for our around the streets walks and market wanders... But also the option to enjoy some more slack at the beach or bushwalking! So many beautiful colours to pick from and incredibly quick and helpful responses from the team via their Facebook page. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be ordering some more colours in the future! 🩵🐾🩷
Sounds like you’ve got every outing covered, from a wander round the markets to a good sniff out bush! We’re glad we could help on Facebook. You’ll have to let us know which colours you go for next 🩵🐾
Amazing quality and cute colours
So glad you love the colours and how well they’re made! 🩵
This is the second collar we own. This time we are puppy testing it! It’s is great not annoying on his neck or being chewed. Have the whole orange collection and they are just stunning!
Will be buying every size as our pup grows up.
The whole orange collection! Your little fella must look a treat in it 🧡 Glad the collar’s passed the puppy test and he’s happy wearing it. We’ve got his next size covered when he’s ready! 🐾
We absolutely love them! I ordered 4 collars and chains and a ute tie up and we received them within 6 days. They work a charm and look absolutely amazing too might i add!
our crew love them🤩
How good! Bet your crew looks pretty sharp in their new collars 🤩 Glad it all landed nice and quick and the ute tie’s doing the job! 🐾
Very good quality collars. You would spend similar money on Chinese crap at Big W or a pet shop but they’re nowhere near the quality of these collars. Great to see something is still made in Australia. Thank you
Cheers, mate! For that money, you might as well get a collar made right here in Orange that’s built to cop a bit of abuse. Thanks for backing Aussie-made! 🐾
Love the photos! Looks like you picked just the right colours for your crew. Thanks for sharing them with us 🐾
Discovered this company on Facebook, have had two orders, they deliver quickly and are well priced. I love supporting a regional business and these guys are just that. They have a great colour range and their collars and leads are well made. Delivery to rural areas within the week. Highly recommend A+
An A+ made our day! It means a lot that you’ve come back for a second order and chosen to back our little business here in Orange. Glad both orders made it out to you nice and quick 🩵🐾
I found the 80cm leads are way too short. However I have been able to exchange for the 1.5m lead. Thanks to Jacaranda collars for prompt service.
The extra long training lead I ordered is good and the green is a great colour.
We were more than happy to swap the lead and get you sorted with the right length for your little one. Lovely to hear you’re happy with the green training lead too 💜 Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to get the right products lined up for you.
Loved the collar and lead! Currently buying another one, now for my partner and one to keep in my car. Great quality!
Not only are these Collars top shelf, recently their distinct colours, in my case Teal, helped identify my dog who had been missing for over 12 hours. If.you haven't yet bought stuff from Jacaranda Collars, it's your turn, do it!
Mate, I’m so glad you got your dog home safe. Twelve hours is a long wait, and that teal collar really came in handy, hey? Now it’s your turn to shout the dog a treat 😉
Amazing quality collars. Fits my dogs perfectly and has withstood farm life.
The catching lead look a fantastic love the vibrant colours great quality so thankyou very much 😊.
Bought the seatbelt ties. They didn't fit in the polaris buggy plugs but perfect for the ute. Love the colours 🎨
I wish I had found these puppy collars earlier! Finally we can tell them apart! The tiny string collars from the Vet disappeared among the fur. Now we can see what pup is greeting you first every time or attacks your toes. A wonderful soft but sturdy product.
Great service, fast delivery and answered all my pesky questions! Excellent quality leads and collars
I have just moved to the coast where I walk the beach most days with my greyhound! She loves the water but cannot be off leash. This long waterproof leash is absolutely perfect for trotting in the waves!
Lightweight, but not TOO light, great colour too! Thanks so much!
I found jacaranda collars at Dubbo show! Bought 4 items,the BEST collars I have ever had. Soft but durable,keep there colour perfectly,don’t get hard and brittle after a few months of wear and tear!
I seen them again at Nyngan ag expo,a few friends bought some things,nothing but good commmets.
Now my entire working crew (8 kelpies) are sporting jacaranda collars!
We LOVE THEM!!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Product is better than expected!
