Its products are made for dogs, cats and horses, with design details such as comfort-rounded leather collars and a patented slip-reducing collar slide reflecting its practical approach.
Coast BrandsCoast Brands grew from its founder Tara’s search for better American-made gear for her dog, Briggs, into a maker of handcrafted dog accessories designed for everyday walks and outdoor adventures. Its signature Coast Line leash is built to shift between traditional, hands-free, running and multi-dog use, while the company’s collars and harnesses pair American marine rope with Wickett & Craig saddle leather and stainless steel hardware. Coast works with American makers, including Amish artisans, and handcrafts every piece in the USA.PHILADELPHIA, PA
