Product features
There are two rows of easy-to-use snap buttons down the front allowing for a more comfortable fit. There are no sleeves on the coat to allow your dog to walk and run naturally without constraints. The coat has been designed “on dogs” to suit their shape. The armholes are slightly larger for proper leg movement, making it also easy to put on and take off.
The lining is in bouclé 100% PL, a durable and moisture-resistant fabric which retains its shape and dries quickly. Bouclé is a type of looped yarn which gives the fabric excellent insulating properties to keep your pet warm and dry.
The outer brocade fabric is 100% PL making it durable and resistant to shrinkage, easy to wash and dry; it also keeps you warm thanks to the tight-weaving of the fabric and it doesn’t absorb moisture.
For those who use harnesses for their pets, you’ll find an almost invisible slit for the harness to fit through comfortably. If your pet wears a collar, you can close this slit with the internal flap and you won’t see anything from the outside.

Fun Fact
Brocade comes from the Italian word Broccato which literally means “embossed cloth”. It is believed to originate from the Ancient Far East (oriente in Italian, hence the name of our coat). The seamstresses would hand-embroider patterns on precious textiles to create works of art. These garments were used exclusively by royal families because of their high cost. The were also considered a symbol of luxury and royalty.
