Ruff and Tumble was born on a kitchen table by a passionate dog owner who believes dogs are happiest and healthiest when running around outside -whatever the weather.  Being realistic about the mess they make everyday and failing to find a dog drying coat that was easy to use, not made from man-made fibres, and one the dogs were happy to wear, Alison designed her own!

Ruff and Tumble is now a successful family business proud to be selling products all over the world.  The gorgeous range of dog drying coats, mitts, and leads are practical, use high quality materials, and a firm favourite of ours at Leather Noses.

Ella Peters, The founder of Skylos Collective brought her learnings from the ethical fashion industry into the pet world with products that combine great design with function and sustainable practices.

Skylos Collective products are made from Apple Leather.  When fruit juice and compost is made, there are lots of leftovers - stalks, seeds, skins etc which cannot be used. These are known as pomace and are what is used in making apple leather.

Every year 30,000 tons of apples are wasted. Approximately 25-40% of the apple ends up as pomace and normally is either thermally destroyed or goes to landfill. 

To make apple leather, the pomace is dried and then ground into a powder. This apple powder is then mixed with water based PU resin. At the end of the process, an innovative, vegan sustainable material is created. The apples used originate from Northern Italy and are processed into apple leather 10km from Florence, in the heart of Tuscany.

The apple leather is certified as; PETA approved Vegan, OEKO-tex, Global Recycled Standard, ISO and others!  

Skylos Creative work with female-owned, highly skilled manufacturing partners in Lancashire. The collection is hand made to the highest standards; quality levels which are synonymous with luxury handbags.  By producing locally they actively contribute to the preservation of leather craft skills in the UK and keep their carbon paw print reduced with fewer transport emissions.

All Skylos Collective products come with a unique QR code found on the tag.  When scanned it enables customers to see first-hand the value chain of the product, and learn about Skylos Collective's sustainability efforts, the UN’s sustainable development goals they are contributing to, and their commitment to donate 2% to the Animal Welfare Society of South Africa.
