Color Disclaimer
Many variables go into webbing/thread colors.
Finished Products
- The same color may appear drastically different depending on the background color that accompanies it as well as the item’s setting and surrounding context (including but not limited to neighboring colors, lighting conditions, size, etc).
- Webbing color and dye lots can vary. Color shades may vary within the same color. Our mills may change the color or shade without notice.
- Embroidered items receive a cleaning and pre-soak before shipments. Some colors could bleed onto white or some light color embroidery threads.
- The "hot" colors are known to have a lot of bleed to them. Some of the others can as well depending on the manufacturers dye lots but those are less frequent than with the "hot" webbing colors.
- Metallic and glittery threads aren't as durable as the standard thread colors therefore I would only recommend those for dogs that are gentle on their collars, only special occasions, certain events, etc.
- Keep collars with these threads away from chemicals, sun, and friction as much as possible to preserve their life.
Digital Proofs
- Digital images do not factor in things like the textures of the different materials which may slightly differ from the colors they are representing going from digitally vs real life.
- Metallics and glittery threads cannot be represented in their real life states but instead would be represented by the closest solid color.
- Multicolor/Blended and Confetti threads also cannot be represented in proof form.
Photography
- While I do my very best to represent colors accurately, photography isn’t an exact science, therefore colors may be slightly different in person when the setting and context changes.
Please take this into consideration when placing your order.
