Exploring New Kinematics
Creating this K9 Jump harness was a fascinating endeavor that pushed our design thinking and perception as the bone structure and movement of 'man's best friend' is considerably different than their human counterparts.




Asymmetric Hardware
Utilizing tailored, laminate foam profiles, load rated webbing, strength tested tack patterns and PPE hardware allow this work harness to be incredibly strong, yet comfortable and unrestrictive for the working canine. Precise fit can be fine tuned via an expandable chest plate that ties into double pass buckles on one side, and Cobra quick connect buckles on the other. This asymmetric hardware design allows the harness to be donned or removed from the dog very quickly.

Integrated, removable hind leg loops adjust for length and girth, providing complete security when vertical.
