Pretty, plain, and perfect.
This collar is worth every cent! I would recommend this to any one who is new to collars or anyone looking for something nicer than what they already have. It really is a beautiful and well made piece, that I hope to enjoy for many years to come!Published: December 9, 2009
Pros:
High quality leather, soft and comfortable. Pretty but plain design allows for discreet public wear.
Cons:
Generous length requires something to hold the extra leather in place.
Follow-up commentary

I still use this collar several times a week. I wear it anytime we go out and when my Daddy calls me from work and instructs me to put it on. I love the way it feels, so simple, but so sexy. It has held up to some pretty rough use. The D ring is a little small, but it works. We use this collar more for "show" than anything else though.

Thank you for viewing Pretty plain collar review page!
Hi Maiden
Glad you liked the little thing! If you find there is excess leather on the collar, you can also trim it to a custom fit using a sharp box cutter type knife with a straight edge on a decent cutting surface!

How does the buckle stay in the center in the back?
Thanks, Bill! I do love it! I had thought about cutting it, but it's so beautiful! I will if I have to, but it shouldn't be a problem to get a little metal slide to hold it in place!
The buckle isn't attached to the leather, Sammi. Each end of the leather has holes for adjustment. It is a little hard to explain, but maybe you can get the idea from the picture. Both ends slide into the buckle, one resting on the inside, one on the outside. It was a little tricky at first to figure out, but it does keep the buckle centered. Also, I was afraid the buckle would be irritating, but it isn't. I have pretty sensitive skin and was able to wear it all day with out even noticing the buckle.
Ha! Okay, I know that no one will believe this, but my dorky aunt voted on my review while it was logged on under my name. She has an account too, and wanted to see my review. I was already logged in, so when she read it she voted out of habit. So ,yes, it looks like I voted for myself.
Unfortunately, I emailed Gary about removing it, and it cannot be done
He said I could say something about it on the review.... so here it is...lol
Great review, Maiden. I agree that the buckle is hard to explain, as I am not sure of what its exact name is. It's good that the larger size fit you though and that you and your Daddy were able to enjoy it! It is really a simple, adorable collar. Leatherbeaten is great.
Sir - it's called a Conway buckle.
Thanks, Sir. My Daddy does love it on me; he hardly lets me take it off!
Great review!! Extremely beautiful collar!!
