Behind the Design: Color Stories

The subtle hues and bursts of color in the landscapes we explore with our dogs inspire and influence the colors of Ruffwear gear. 

Sure – dogs see the colors of the rainbow a little differently than we do. But what if it's more about their experience of it than it is the looks? The feel of icy blue water as they dip a paw into an alpine lake, the whiff of a wildflower that's as fragrant as it is red, and that sense of peace in a glowing sunset as another day outside together comes to a close.

That's the beauty of color – it draws you in and invites you to linger in the moment a little longer. It holds sentiment and energy, and it's why we choose our hues so carefully.

Here’s a look at the inspiration behind some of the colorways in our line.

BLUE MOON

Deep, mysterious, and worthy of howling at – blue moons are when we get a rare second full moon in a single month, and perfect for lighting an evening hike. Explore Blue Moon gear.

RED CURRANT

No doubt the tart-sweet combo of currants catches the attention of our dogs’ noses as much as the stark red pops against the surrounding greenery. Explore Red Currant gear.
