The traffic handle needs to sit close enough to the collar end for quick control but padded enough that it does not dig into the owner's hand during a firm grip, which is a balance we adjust based on your target leash length and webbing width.
Options include padded grips at both ends, reflective webbing, printed patterns, and swivel snap hooks that reduce leash twisting. The print method and hook size are confirmed on the sample for your webbing and dog size.
Important Checks Before Requesting a Quote
- Confirm traffic handle placement distance from the clip end suits your target use case.
- Ask whether padding is sewn-in foam or a wrapped neoprene sleeve, since durability differs.
- Check swivel snap hook rotation and holding strength under sudden pulls.
- Clarify print method durability (heat transfer vs. screen print) against washing and sun exposure.
