Q: My rope leads fray or snap after a few months. How is this different?
A: The Heritage Line uses recycled rPET rope with a 48-strand sheath and climbing grade hardware, tested to a 1650kg breaking point. Standard leads aren't tested in the same way Sledline materials are.c Generally basic leads will be very limited in their build and strength of the material used.
Q: Wet leads are uncomfortable and start to smell. Will this one?
A: No - the rope is UV, mildew and water-resistant. The rPET rope won’t absorb odour and will hold up even in the toughest of conditions.
Q: I struggle to keep control of strong dogs. Does this give better handling?
A: Yes - the 10mm rope gives a firm grip, and the zinc die cast cord tube system allows quick adjustments on the handle for close control when you need it.
Q: I want eco-friendly gear but don’t want to compromise strength. Does this qualify?
A: Absolutely - the rope is made from recycled plastic bottles, combining sustainability with the strength required for powerful, larger dog breeds. Polyester is lightweight even when wet. Polyester ropes are highly valued thanks to their low weight, weather resistance, excellent knotability and universal range of applications.
