Need suggestions where to buy a rolled nylon collar

I live in the UK and am having a hard time finding any collars suitable for long haired breeds. Pets at Home only stock flat collars and I want to buy a rolled nylon collar for my pup. Even online, shops only seem to do the flat collars or rolled leather which I'm not as keen on.

Any ideas where I could find a rolled nylon one?
 
It's not strong enough to have a leash attached (but still strong enough to grab is they try to dash out the door) but I use nationleash's collars for a tag collar and use a normal flat collar only when walking (getting a rolled martingale lead to replace that). I believe they ship internationally but I would double check before ordering.

There's a thread on them and their different collars using climbing rope here:

The only "rolled" nylon collars I can think of right off the top of my head is a show collar. I use these for my regular collars... as they work perfect for shelties. I don't even own a "normal" dog collar. http://www.cherrybrook.com/index.cf...0/catid/451/vname/Alvalley_Nylon_Slip_Collars
But, when I did some searching on UK show dog supplies I couldn't find these collars over there. I'm not sure if you want to pay the shipping charges to get these to you.
I did notice they have this... it might help with shipping charges, it does look good. http://www.cherrybrook.com/index.cfm/a/article.show/artid/34
 
My boys wear rolled leather. Love these collars. They were made by Amish folk in Penn. They are so soft,and look fab.

Or this martingale perhaps?

Darla's neck is starting to get wider than her head now... so maybe I should be looking for one of these. She doesn't wear a collar in the house or garden, she's all fenced in too.

The amount of collar choice is so confusing :confused2:

Yes, you will want a Martingale, or a slip collar for a sheltie, or even harness... to be absolutely safe... as with all the hair on the neck can make it easy for them to slip out of.

Plus I think a buckle would be pretty fiddlly to do up with all that hair so I was leaning more to the martingale. How do slip collars work? They look like they have nothing to stop them from choking a dog if it pulls on the lead.
 
I have been searching for a rolled nylon collar also...gave up and recently bought a rolled leather one for Mystique.
It seems to be working well although I prefered the ease of the snap on her old puppy collar to the buckle on this one.
Let us know if you find anything on your search....the closest I have come is the rolled nylon show collar which is fine on lead or when supervised but not safe to have her wearing about the yard because of the choke factor.
