Quick Answer

For a durable, stylish collar that shows off your love for Athletic Brewing Co., choose a collar made from strong materials with an adjustable fit. If your dog is a chewer or spends time in water, prioritize durability over softness. For matching human-dog style, pair the collar with Athletic Brewing Co. apparel like the Lettering Hat or Midweight Hoodie.

Shopping for your dog is more fun when you can find gear that matches your own style. Athletic Brewing Co. offers a range of merchandise that lets you and your furry friend rep the brand together. From collars to cozy accessories, there's something for every pup and owner.

But with so many options, how do you choose? This guide breaks down the key factors: fit, durability, comfort, and style. We'll also show you how to pair dog merch with your favorite Athletic Brewing Co. apparel for a coordinated look.

What to Look for in Dog Merchandise

When picking any dog accessory, start with fit. Collars should be snug but not tight—you should be able to slide two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. Measure your dog's neck before buying, and check if the collar is adjustable. A good fit prevents slipping and chafing.

Durability matters too. Dogs love to chew, roll, and swim. Look for materials that resist water and wear. Nylon and polyester are common for outdoor gear. Avoid soft fabrics that can fray or absorb odors. Also consider how easy the item is to clean—machine-washable is a plus for busy owners.

Style is the fun part. Athletic Brewing Co. merchandise often features clean, sporty designs that look great on both you and your dog. Choose colors that complement your dog's coat and your own wardrobe. Matching your dog's collar to your hat or hoodie creates a cohesive, Instagram-worthy look.

  • Measure your dog's neck before ordering.
  • Check if the collar has an adjustable buckle or snap.
  • Pick water-resistant materials for active dogs.

Caring for Your Dog's Athletic Brewing Co. Gear

To keep your dog's collar and accessories looking new, clean them regularly. Most collars can be wiped with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, check if the material is machine-washable. Air dry to prevent damage.

Inspect the hardware—buckles, D-rings, and snaps—for wear. Replace any cracked or rusty parts to ensure safety. Store collars away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. With proper care, your dog's gear will last for years.

Decision Rules for Choosing Dog Merch

  • Measure your dog's neck: Use a flexible tape measure around the base of the neck, leaving room for two fingers. Compare with the collar's size range. A proper fit prevents slipping and discomfort.
  • Consider your dog's activity level: For swimmers or diggers, choose water-resistant and quick-drying materials. For indoor pups, softer fabrics may be fine. Match materials to your dog's lifestyle.
  • Match style with your own gear: Choose a collar color that complements your Athletic Brewing Co. apparel, like the navy Lettering Hat or storm blue Hoodie. Create a coordinated look for photos and outings.
