Animal Stars: Braided collars

Okay so technically Animal Stars appears to be a totally vanilla company but they make a fantastic range of really beautiful braided collars, both flat and round, in customisable colours for comparatively reasonable prices (although they are based in the US so anyone outside of there may get stung for shipping).  Well worth a look if you like leather and fancy something more than just plain black.

Rivit Head: All the spikes and chains

Rivit Head have a whole range of collars available, and I'm not really going to point any out in particular as I'm more pointing out style of them, these are almost archetypal bondage collars - a whole line up of severe black leather covered in studs, rings, studs and lots of hanging chain :)  If you like your collars on the industrial/goth end of things then you may well like looking at these.

Actually in particular their 71C Leather Choker is quite an interesting design, a 2 layer leather collar the outer layer holds not just several O's all along its length, but  bunches of 3 O-rings at a time, really rather beautiful.

Decadent Transitions: Industrial Gothic Collar

Decadent Transitions is a company that seems to mostly concentrate on making really, really fantastic looking floggers (ahem) anyway, thats for another time, what caught my eye was also their interesting line of collars, including their Industrial Gothic Collar which is a segmented afair, sections of leather linking a whole long series of D-rings, giving the whole thing an interesting appearance and also about a million attachment points :)

Chained Desires: Celtic Knot and Pride Collars

Chained Desires do a number of leather bondage collars, among them are a couple of really interesting designs.  These include Collars with celtic knotwork over the throat and also one with cute gay pride flag colours on.

Black Market Chicago: Religious Collars

Well a good example of an interesting an unusual collar is this crucifix themed contoured collar, from Black Market Chicago.  They do a whole range of reasonably standard collars that look like nicely made leather work but some of the stuff they do is really rather interesting, in addition to the one above they also do similar shaped ones for medical play and also this rather cute soft leather day collar with a rose on.

Chainmail & More: Snake and Dual-braid half-round collars

Okay so Chainmail & More do a whole bunch of chainmail stuff, however what attracted me was the sheer sturdyness of how things looked.  They do two principal collars, the thicker and more substantial  Snake Slave Collar, a tightly woven weave of metal (with one edge flattened fractionally to rest against the neck) and also the lighter, and elegant, but still really robust looking Dual braid half round collar, which the example version of comes in an attracted bronze/bright mix of rings.

Bear's Leather

Okay so Bear's Leather is a site that specialises in producing really nice handcrafted leather, either in stock designs or apparently custom stuff.  They include a rather fine selection of collars including some awesome BDSM Collars with dropped O's at the front as well as some frankly beautiful and robust looking small posture collars / thick contoured collars as well as more emphasised V-shaped contours going to buckles V-shaped contours going to buckles .

They also do some really interesting stuff that caught my eye.  Wear a day-to-day turian collar and want a more substantially thick leather collar for play?  Well here's a first, a leather collar designed to clip to one.  Oh and all their stuff comes with locking roller buckles as well for keeping them on.
