Two-Part Dog Raincoat FAQ
The belly wrap provides removable, adjustable underbelly protection for quick, clean exits.
For low-to-the-ground dogs, the belly is ground zero for splash, mud, and street grime, from wet sidewalks to soggy trails.
Instead of washing the entire dog raincoat after a soggy, muddy walk, remove the belly wrap, rinse it clean, or swap it for a fresh one and head out again.
Either order works. Choose the easier method for you and your dog. To remove, reverse the steps.
The dog raincoat can be put on or taken off in two simple, quick ways:
Method 1) Slide the raincoat over your dog’s head and down the body. Attach the smaller end of the belly wrap to the chest loop on the raincoat, then fasten the left and right sides of the belly wrap to the matching side loops on the dog raincoat.
Method 2) Start by attaching the smaller end of the belly wrap to the chest loop on the dog raincoat. Then slide the raincoat over your dog’s head and down the body, and fasten the left and right sides of the belly wrap to the matching side loops on the raincoat.
It’s adaptive underbody coverage. The belly wrap anchors at the chest loop and wraps under the front torso for chest + underbody protection. It’s unisex and designed to fit male dogs, sitting more forward to avoid interfering with potty breaks.
Start with two key measurements:
1) Back Length — from the base of the neck (collar line) to the base of the tail.
2) Chest / Girth — around the deepest part of the chest (just behind the front legs), wrapping over the spine — the full circumference.
The adjustable hook-and-loop system offers a flexible fit, tailored for comfort and unrestrained movement. Depending on your dog’s breed and build, the raincoat fit may range from snug to relaxed.
If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up for an easier fit. Refer to the Measurement Guide, or reach out to us for sizing support before ordering.
If you’re between raincoat sizes, size up for an easier fit. The adjustable hook-and-loop system lets you fine-tune snugness without restricting movement.

The dog raincoat and removable belly wraps are water-repellent (not waterproof) and wind-resistant, designed for wet-weather walks and quick, clean exits. In heavy rain or long exposure, moisture can eventually work through — that's normal for breathable performance softshell.
The dog raincoat is made from recycled Dintex fleece-back softshell — a three-layer technical fabric that turns about 24 plastic bottles per yard into high-performance dogwear. The material blends 94% recycled polyester (Repreve®, a traceable performance fiber) with 6% spandex for flexibility, breathability, and warmth without bulk.
Finished with a plant-based, PFC-free water-repellent finish and made with OEKO-TEX® certified components, it’s water-repellent (not waterproof), wind-resistant, and built for movement. The two-part, modular dog raincoat design minimizes washing, effort, and impact — efficient by nature, not trend. Because landfill fashion isn’t our thing.
To maintain the quality and performance of your dog raincoat and removable belly wraps, follow these care instructions:
