Hitch Hiker™ Leash

portable hitch & leash combo

Color

Selected: Slate Blue

The Hitch Hiker is a climbing-inspired adjustable-length leash and hitching system for ultimate connection versatility with your dog on the fly - from the crag to coffee shops and all the paths in between.

The adjustable strap shines equally whether being used as the handle for a hand-held leash, waist belt for a hands-free leash, or wrap for a hitch secured around a single tree or post. And, with 12 feet of rope to work with, you can fluidly shift from long line to short lead and all points in between with the ergonomic HitchLock™ rope adjuster. It's designed for hands-on adjustment that acts as a braking system when the rope is under tension. A durable stow bag keeps rope tails contained, marking its unrivaled portability and utility as a hitch and leash combo.

The Start of A Beautiful Belay-tionship: Much like the climbing gear that inspired the hardware and the mark of a trusted climbing belay partner, human participation is required. While the Hitch Hiker uses an auto-blocking technique to lock the rope under tension, slack must be let out and taken in by hand.

Dimensions: Rope length is 12 ft (3.65m); Stow Bag is 6 x 7 x 2 in (16 x 18.5 x 5 cm), Waist Belt Maximum Length 49"

    Great product!

    My dog has great recall off leash but sometimes when it’s crowded on the trail or there are other dogs who are less friendly, she needs to be on a leash. This is the perfect product, it’s lightweight for me to wear and easy for me to attach to her quickly.

    Go to hiking leash

    Love that the length can be adjusted so my pup Miles can safely ascend/descent. I have excellent control when we approach other dogs on the trail which most conventional rope leashes are very difficult to manage shortening the lead. All hands free!!! Drawbacks are no adequate storage for treats or waste bags. I have to carry a secondary bag. Overall excellent choice.

    game changer

    this is perfect for my high energy puppy! I can give her slack when we're at a park or make it tighter when walking in the neighborhood. I will sometimes attach the switchback to it to walk both of my dogs.
