Creating the perfect Gilet for you
To the fun part!

For a size 'XS' Please choose our 'S' size and request XS in your basket notes before checking out. For sizes 'XXL Slim & XXL' Please choose the XL size and do the same.

- Do you want the fur collar Gilet? This option can be requested in your basket notes.
- If you use a harness? Opt for the harness hole. Choosing this option will require a less tailored, loose, wider fit to accommodate enough room for the harness to sit comfortably underneath the gilet. Please keep this in mind when opting for a harness hole.
If you do not wish to have the harness hole, simply leave the tab on 'without'.

We are very happy with the Margot Gilet we bought recently. It is a good medium-weight coat for slightly cooler days, and it helps protect Elio's sensitive underside skin from the rashes he sometimes gets from running in long grass. It has had a lot of admiring comments from other dog walkers. However, there are two small problems with the gilet. One is that Elio has an extremely deep chest, and even the XL size is a bit snug vertically. The other is that it can be difficult getting underneath him to zip it up, although that part just takes a little practice. On balance, we are very happy with the gilet.
We got Leo an Olive Gilet a while back and find it works really well on cold damp days. he gets hot but also needs wind protection and it works a treat.
I love this gilet, I wish my husband would agree the girls NEED it in every colour so I could get them all. Looks lovely but also really practical for our camping trips and walks to the pub.
I rarely write reviews, I ordered the mustard colour gilet with a fur collar and it's so beautifully well made, the least I can do is give it the 5 stars it deserves. I'm actually very pleased with all the items I've ordered from this company and will continue to order more.
Thank you!
Just received our gilet, really pleased with it, fantastic quality and can't wait for the cooler weather to put it to good use 😀
We just love our gilet, it's super stylish and love that you can wear it as is or layer up in the colder months! Rainproof also a big bonus for dog walks in the UK. Perfect fit for our boy (L slim) and beautiful material, as always!
Really impressed not only by the quality of the gilet and the effort in making them by hand but also by the care and attention in the customer service. Turnaround was rapid, ordered on 6th Feb and received 17th Feb. I'm made up with the gilet, the Sweet Mustard shade is beautiful and I think it really suits my Maya. She's a long lurcher but with quite a narrow chest relatively, so the XL fits perfect on the length but with a bit of wiggle room in the chest which I'm happy with as she's got room for a fleece underneath if it's extra chilly. Now I've checked the fit and am suitably impressed, I shall go ahead and purchase another gilet for my Myrtle to match Maya! Thanks so much to Donna and all the team :)
Great quality material and product! I am a 4 time repeat customer with SpeedRay.
Great quality and fit as usual. The Cairo jumper fits well underneath too.
We now have 3 Speedray gilets! They're an absolute wardrobe essential and such head turners. We love the uniqueness of the design, but also how practical they are for rainy or windy days (which we get a lot of in the UK!). They look equally stunning worn on their own or paired with a stylish snood or layered with a jumper. The pups love them as the lining is so cosy and the fit is perfect so they don't interfere with them exploring when we're out adventuring. Perfect for dogs who see the outdoors as an urban agility playground! They also wipe clean super easily so that's perfect for us too! The Margot gilet will forever be our most adored piece of sighthound clothing and the one thing we'd keep if we had to choose only one wardrobe staple for our boys 🤎
