This is a how-to guide to show you what to look for in your collar, and how much you should expect to pay for a collar. That said, collars can be for anyone- puppies, kittens, foxes, or littles and etc.
I'd personally recommend collars that are made for people to wear, but some pets like to buy pet collars, and that's perfectly fine too. Here's a few to things to look for when buying:
- Toughness. Most pets should expect a little rough play in them, and it's worth a few extra dollars to ensure it won't break on you. Leather and nylon are usually good choices.
- Fit. The fit should be tight enough that it doesn't easily fall/ slip, but it should be loose enough where you can breathe/ eat easily. Typically, if you can slip two fingers underneath, it isn't too tight.
- Style. There are different collars that lock, buckle, snap, and etc. There are also collars that clip on to a leash, and others that don't. Choose what you like. (Tip for gifting: Choose a favourite colour.)
- Material. Most collars will be made of nylon, ribbon, or leather (faux leather is very popular), so choose which material carefully. There's no point in an uncomfortable collar.
- Purpose. Most collars are not made for exceedingly rough play, so make sure your collar is made for what you want to do with it. And if you need a little help, read the reviews on the product.
With all that being said, price is an issue for most submissives still. We've all seen pretty, fancy collars whose price tag isn't budgeted. Most decent collars will cost around $6 to $15 depending on use, and as I get into buying more, I'll be sure to post my opinion up!
