Clothes For Dog Walking | How To Stay Warm and Dry<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

A dog walk is a delightful and healthy activity, but it becomes less enjoyable when the weather takes a turn for the worse. So what should you wear when dog walking? To ensure that you and your furry companion stay warm and dry during those drizzly or chilly outings, investing in the right clothing and footwear<\/a> is crucial. In this guide, we’ll explore the key items from outdoor brands<\/a> available at Outdoor and Country to make your dog walking experience comfortable, no matter the weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Firstly, Dog Walking Clothes for the Humans…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Waterproof Jackets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to staying dry, a high-quality waterproof jacket is a must. For example, Barbour waterproof jackets<\/a>, as well as brands such as Ridgeline, offer durable and stylish options. Look for jackets with breathable materials and adjustable hoods to stay comfortable in various conditions. Notably, men’s waterproof coats<\/a> and waterproof jackets for women<\/a> with features such as Gore-Tex materials and PrimaLoft lining are always a good option for walks in wet weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wax and Tweed Coats<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Waxed cotton jackets<\/a> repel moisture and provide a classic outdoor look that is perfect for countryside walks. These jackets are great for drizzly days, with a water-resistant outer layer that keeps you dry while exuding a rustic charm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, tweed jackets provide warmth and sophistication, making them ideal for dry but chilly outings. Their durable yet luxurious fabric offers insulation against the cold while adding traditional elegance to your outdoor ensemble. Women’s tweed coats<\/a> can also be incredibly flattering thanks to their beautiful tailoring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both of these jacket styles combine country heritage with practicality, keeping you stylish and comfortable during your dog-walking adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cosy Mid-Layers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For colder days and winter weather, consider building up layers beneath your waterproof jacket. Hoodies, sweatshirts, fleece layers and knitwear are all perfect for adding insulation to your outfit. Browse our menswear<\/a> and womenswear<\/a> to find the best cosy layers to form the perfect walkies kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose your favourites from the above and pair them with your comfiest joggers or leggings (leave the jeans at home if it’s torrential outside!) and you’re almost ready!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Next, the All Important Dog Walking Footwear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to choosing footwear<\/a> for dog walking, versatility, comfort, and weather protection are paramount. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wellington boots<\/a>, such as Le Chameau wellies<\/a> or Aigle wellingtons<\/a>, are ideal for rainy or muddy days, as they provide reliable protection against moisture while keeping your feet dry and comfortable. Good boots for dog walking feature sturdy construction and deep-treaded soles for excellent grip on slippery surfaces, ensuring stability during outdoor excursions. <\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking boots<\/a> are an obvious choice for more intense walks with unpredictable terrain, while tall boots such as the Dubarry Galways<\/a> are a perfect combination of style, comfort, and protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, Dog Walking Essentials for Your Furry Friend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now that you’ve got yourself ready, you can say the magic word and let the canine chaos commence. Walkies requires certain items to keep your pup safe and secure, so what should you keep in your dog walking bag? Most important are your dog’s collar<\/a> and lead<\/a>. This will help to keep your dog under control and the tag will provide contact details if they manage to get lost. Dog harnesses<\/a> are also useful if you have a particularly energetic dog that likes to pull! A ball or your dog’s favourite toy<\/a> is good to have at hand, and of course, don’t forget those little plastic bags that keep our streets nice and clean!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
