Great looking collar but poor Buckle design

Great looking collar, and made of durable material. However the buckle design is faulty. I have 2 of these, in black and in elevated II colors that my black lab wears. When she plays with my other dog, or sometimes just playing fetch, the buckle will come apart and the collar falls off. It has happened multiple times to both collars over the past year. Unfortunately I can’t trust it for working dog use, or even if she just decided to run after something at home. If it fell off, nobody could contact me when found. I had to switch to a different brand collar.

Love the dog collar

Love the dog collar but it’s heavy on my pup. I keep my collars kind of loose on him so they don’t rub his skin. Wish they would have done a lighter material on the buckle.

Ok collar minus the buckle

Collar is nice but the buckle is horrible it’s pops off on its own all the time, i usually get lucky and find it but not this time. Should really consider using a different buckle.

A little disappointed

The buckle on the collar tends to come apart. It’s happened numerous times since I purchased it. It started the first day I got it. It looks good but doesn’t function up to my Sitka standards

Sitka dog collar

This is a beautiful well-made collar. The clasp is horrible! The first trip in the woods, the dog lost it. I contacted Sitka and they were kind enough to send me a replacement. However, the replacement was found on the floor one day when I came in from being gone. The clasp comes undone too easily. We like it so much, we might try to take it somewhere and have someone sew a better clasp on it.

Great look but flawed …

The collar repeatedly unsnapped from my dogs neck and became so unreliable that I had to take it off. The look is perfect but this was a flawed product.

Dog collar

Twice in the last week the collar unlatched while petting my dog. Normally you need to depress both sides of latch to put on or take off. 2nd time was on a walk with people and other dogs and my dog in training didn’t want to come back right away. Little scary because we walk by the Mississippi River and still had some ice on it! Put the old, boring collar back on. Loved the look and matched her colors but don’t trust the latch, maybe got a defective latch? Sucks, cause I’m a huge Sitka guy and everything else Sitka is Top quality, my Best stuff! Latch should maybe curve with the neck, large bulky buckle isn’t cutting it!

Sitka dog collar

I’ve been really impressed with the Sitka Dog Collar. The build quality is excellent and it feels very durable while still being comfortable for my dog. The materials hold up well to mud, water, and everyday wear, which is exactly what I was looking for. The fit is great, it adjusts easily, and the design looks sharp. Overall, it’s a high-quality collar that’s clearly made to last—definitely worth it.

Disappointed

Bought two of these collars for my dogs, one of them came unlatched in the yard and I found it. Two weeks later we got home from walking out in the country and my other dog was missing hers. I would not recommend these, they will not stay on your dog and you are wasting your money.

Looked great, but lost forever!

Wish I would have read the reviews before I wasted my money. The latch doesn’t stay closed and the collar falls off. This has happened 2 previous times, once in the field and once at home. But today’s hunt it fell off in the river to never be seen again. Medium is about max size for a 55 pound female lab.

Cool collar terrible functionality

Collars look great but they come undone way too easily. Collar came off while they were in the woods. Now I’m out of a collar, name tag, and rabies tag. Cobra clips are probably best used under tension which I would not do to my dog. Maybe should be redesigned with the classic buckle clip. Will not be buying again.

Cool collar, very flawed latch design.

Collar looks great and is super cool, except for the latches which come undone very easily. My dog would move and the collar would come undone. Also came undone when playing with other dogs. Not very secure or safe in wild situations where you absolutely must trust that your dog won’t come free or escape. One side of the latch moves and it opens up completely. Shouldn’t happen for a pricier collar. Collar came off when my dog was in his crate and he chewed it to pieces.

Great Looks but needs a fix

I'm giving this collar 5 stars for looks (I've got a ton of Optifade gear) and a one star for the buckle. It's popped off Hudson twice. See the 1 star reviews. They're right on. Yes; the latch springs need to be way stronger. BUT! there is fix for this. Go to your local hardware store and buy a 1-1/16 in OD by 13/16 in ID neoprene O ring. Put over the tab end and stretch it up onto the large part of the buckle. Snap the tab into the other side and roll the O ring into the gap in front of the tabs you push to unbuckle the collar. They won move unless you pry the O ring out and up over the buckle. A 1-1/16 OD x 7/8 ID installed the same way can be opened with moderately strong hand pressure on the tabs but can result in losing the O ring if you don't keep an eye on it.
