Italian Greyhound cotton shirt, designed for slender bodies and narrow waists
This Italian Greyhound cotton shirt was specially developed for the unique body proportions of this sensitive and delicate breed. The fine rib cage, narrow waist, low body mass, and overall very delicate build place special demands on dog clothing. Standard cuts often fit too loosely in the chest area or wrinkle in the waist area for these proportions, and we have developed the solution with this shirt.
The sleeveless cut ensures maximum freedom of movement for the front legs and supports the natural movement sequence when running and playing. Soft cuffs at the armholes and an elastic waistband in the belly area keep the shirt securely on the body without exerting pressure. The back is fully covered, while the narrow waist is cleanly sculpted, so the shirt neither slips nor restricts.
This model is particularly suitable for Italian Greyhounds and other small, delicate dogs with a similar build.
High-quality cotton material
Our popular shirt is now also available in French Terry, a high-quality blend of 95% cotton and 5% elastane.
This lightweight, elastic material is particularly comfortable on the skin, breathable, and offers your dog maximum freedom of movement. Perfect for transitional seasons or as light protection on fresh days.
Handmade in our Berlin manufactory
Each shirt is carefully handmade in our own manufactory in Berlin. Our aim is to develop high-quality sighthound fashion and whippet clothing that adapts exactly to the anatomy of the sighthound, is functionally well thought out, and reliably accompanies the dog in everyday life as well as during sporting activity. And also looks very good.
Fit & Size Selection
To ensure the shirt fits your dog perfectly, please refer to our size chart and the measuring instructions:
- Back length: starting between the shoulder blades to the base of the tail
- Chest circumference: at the deepest point of the rib cage
- Neck circumference: centrally around the neck (where the collar usually sits)
When measuring, make sure your dog is standing calmly and straight. Do not measure too tightly or too loosely; a consistent, natural fit is the goal. First, choose the appropriate back length, then check if the chest circumference and neck circumference also fit the chosen size. Your dog's weight can also serve as a guide. ATTENTION: the measurements in our size chart are not the measurements of the garment, but those of the dog.
Despite careful measurement, it can happen that the size is not clear, or a product does not fit optimally. If you are unsure, we always offer a non-binding and free size consultation. You can reach us at shop@karma-hund.de.
Sustainability is important to us, so we would be happy if you contact us before placing your order. This way, unnecessary returns, shipping routes, and packaging material can be avoided.
Our Appeal for Sustainability
Please order consciously! Every return burdens the environment and resources. Please avoid multiple orders for selection if possible. We are happy to help you find the right size beforehand. If the shirt still does not fit perfectly, we will of course exchange it. However, we do not offer free return labels.
