Multiway Brass Hands Free Leash - Medium Dogs (1/2" Width)

This is my third leash from High Tale Hikes and I have nothing but good things to say! The quality is amazing, the biothane is great for people with dexterity issues, and the customization aspect is unmatched. My first leash is a year old and as it’s worn I’ve only loved it more. My second leash was loved a little too harshly by my puppy (I’m still sad as it was the special edition pride month one), and I was so sad I purchased my third the same day! I love this small business and can’t wait to add a custom collar to match the leash that has become a permanent part of our everyday lives! (Pictures below are of first and second leash)

These are the only leashes I use to walk my dog. I have 3 or 4 of the 1/2inch hand free convertible leashes with several different lengths. I prefer using the 6’ for everyday walks. Such high quality and so easily to clean! Will absolutely be purchasing more

This was an upgrade for me from a store-bought crossbody leash that was a little too short for my sheltie/iggy mix to avoid being underfoot all the time, and I'm so happy I did. This hands-free leash is hands-down my favorite of the items I ordered. I chose the 1/2" width even though my dog is only 16-17lbs - the skinnier version just looked TOO skinny for the length I wanted, especially since I got her the 1" collar.

I'm not sure why there are those coating "ripples" on the wide part of the lead, but they don't impact function and don't bother me. I did not see the same texture on the ID collar I also got.

I will be picking up an even longer convertible leash for training, and probably a 4ft lead as well (6ft is a little too long for us on potty breaks or vet visits, but I didn't realize you could custom order a shorter one!)

I love this leash so much! I got the seafoam + lavender and the combo looks great. Helps on walks when I have to hold my dog's poop bag and other things.

I had been using a 6 foot High Tail Hikes leash for our daily walks through the neighborhood, which was great! I had my eye on the hands free leash for a while but was hesitant to spend the money when I had a perfectly good leash. I’ve been using the hands free leash for a month now and cannot believe I waited so long to purchase it! I LOVE IT! I got the 12 foot length, so when I have it secured around my waist my pup has several more feet of leash compared to the 6 foot leash and it makes a world of difference! I very rarely hold the leash at all on our walks but when I need to, the biothane is easy and comfortable to hold. Highly recommend this product and this shop!

This leash is very well made, but FYI the ocean color is more teal than sky blue like their instagram shows. Overall still a pretty combo. Pictured: ocean and midnight.

This leash is awesome! I love the versatility of being able to go hands free or give my dog more room to wander at the full length. The customizations are great as well. I got the 10 footer with the traffic handle at 12". It's a comfortable height for me and I can still use it even when she's clipped in front. All the clips and rings make it easy to attach to my 20 ft long line. It is very well made and feels very secure. Plus it's really pretty! I went with the Forrest Green and Flamingo combo and love it.

This is my second hands free convertible leash and I love it as much as the first one! We use it daily and it’s great when I need her close to me or when I know she can roam around. I only wish they made matching harnesses so my OCD doesn’t drive me crazy as the harness I have isn’t an exact match lol but that’s a me problem I guess

We absolutely love everything we have gotten from High Tail Hikes! Durable, strong, and expertly made!

One of the best investments we made for our 11 month old lab/hound mix puppy! The durability, versatility, and craftsmanship of the lead has been so helpful as we train our new dog. We both feel more secure when wearing the lead cross-body and the ability to practice recall and leverage the traffic handle that we added on busy streets is added security.

Love the versatility of this leash- extra length make it easy to wear around my waist so my hands are free. Nice material- light weight but strong and durable!

Absolutely love this hands-free convertible leash! It’s a total game-changer for walks, training sessions, and everyday outings. The versatility is unmatched—I can wear it around my waist, over the shoulder, or use it as a traditional leash depending on what we’re doing. It’s especially helpful for keeping my hands free while managing treats, training cues, or just sipping my coffee. The quality feels super durable, and the hardware is strong and reliable. I also love the feel of the material. Whether we’re hiking, training, or navigating the city, this leash gives me control and comfort. Highly recommend for any dog owner looking to simplify and elevate their walks!

We love this leash so much! We are often pushing a stroller with our toddler and walking the dog at the same time, so being hands-free has been incredibly helpful and has made walks together less stressful. Even when we’re not pushing the stroller we love to wear it. We feel much more secure knowing we can let go of the leash or hold onto it whenever we need. It’s strong sturdy and has several options to wear. We mostly wear it crossbody.

The construction of this leash feels very strong and high quality. I love how you can wear/hold it in different styles, and the built-in traffic handle is super useful for city living. Thanks High Tail Hikes!

It works great for me as a sash while my service dog pulls me in my wheelchair.

I love this dog leash so much, it’s stylish, comfortable, and multifunctional for so many walking methods! Love love love

I purchased the 12 ft hands free convertible leash (½ inch with brass hardware). I can’t rave enough about this leash! As it is convertible, I have plenty of options on how to use it. I tend to use it most as a crossbody leash when taking my puppy on walks. Being hands free allows me to reward him easily. My husband prefers to use it as a standard leash, so with just a quick snap to another D ring, he’s got a comfortable handle and nearly the full 12 ft length.

Love the lightweight BioThane too! Ozzy is just starting to discover the water so having a waterproof leash is a huge bonus! A quick swipe down the length of the leash and the sand is gone and the leash is dry.

Toughest part about this purchase was choosing the color. SO many choices! We also have a 30 ft long line from High Tail Hikes That we use for training and to give Ozzy a bit more freedom to explore when we are on the trail.

Love the quality and workmanship!

Exactly as advertised. The color is rich and vibrant. The leash is is comfortable in my hands and strong. The 7 foot length is perfect for walking in heel around stores and my dog is still able to lay down comfortably while I’m looking at things. It’s exactly what was looking for.

It’s just really long and impractical relative to what we were hoping for

This leash is a revelation. The longer length (10' in our case) makes it easy to allow our dog to sniff and explore on our walks while giving us all the control in the world. We use it in all three of its configurations: standard grip, around the waist, and over the shoulder (great for no hands walks). The biothane material is super easy to clean and particularly good at the beach (just towel it off). Great stuff High Tail Hikes.

Got this as a gift for my mom and she was instantly raving about it - so multi-functional and beautifully made!

This is my daily driver (of leashes). It’s very well made and I love the different options for how to wear it; it can be a long line or a hands-free leash. Love all of the color options too. Arrived promptly and as described. 5/5 no notes
