How much leash length your dog gets depends on how you use it.

Hand-held	Crossbody	Around the waist
full length (e.g. 3 m for a 3 m leash)	about 1 m shorter (e.g. 2 m for a 3 m leash)	a little more than crossbody, depending on your waist size

Each leash is handmade and the rope may shrink a bit when wet, so there can be a slight variation in length.
