Great Dane Clothes: Introducing Our Polo and Rowing Dog Jerseys

Great Dane Clothes: Introducing Our Polo and Rowing Dog Jerseys

Great Danes have a distinctive shape, and finding clothing that suits those long bodies and deep chests can take a little more thought than shopping for a smaller dog.

That is exactly what inspired our D&D Polo Club and rowing dog jerseys: lightweight sporting pieces with a distinctly British feel, created with substantial dogs in mind.

Sporting style for very large dogs

Great Danes are tall, long-bodied and deep through the chest, so measurements matter more than a breed label alone. Before ordering, check chest circumference, back length and neck measurement against the individual product size guide.

Our jerseys are available in larger sizes and bring heritage sporting graphics to dogs who already have plenty of presence.

The D&D Polo Club jersey

The D&D Polo Club jersey takes its cues from traditional polo colours, sporting crests and old club kit.

With navy edging and an equestrian-style back design, it has the look of a proper sporting top adapted for a dog who is very likely to be asked whether a saddle is involved.

Smart, playful and unmistakably part of The Developer & The Dane world, it works particularly well for photographs, events and days out.

The rowing-club jersey

The rowing-club jersey is inspired by British boathouses, painted blades and the long tradition of dogs appearing beside rivers and rowing clubs.

Crossed-oar detailing, a club-style crest and traditional sporting colours give it an easy regatta feel. Angus, our blue Great Dane and honorary rowing-club mascot, is very much the spirit behind it.

Lightweight mesh construction

Both jerseys use a lightweight mesh-style fabric rather than a thick sweatshirt material, giving them the appearance of sporting tops without unnecessary bulk.

As with all dog clothing, fit and comfort come first. Use the size guide, supervise wear and remove the jersey if your dog seems uncomfortable.

Why a Great Dane in a sporting jersey works so well

Great Danes already have the stature for it. Their height and elegant outline make a simple jersey look like a complete club uniform, while their affectionate personalities ensure the effect never becomes too serious.

The jerseys may also suit other large and giant breeds depending on individual measurements. A Mastiff, Wolfhound and Great Dane can have very different proportions even at similar weights, so the size chart should always lead the decision.

British sporting style for dogs and their people

The jerseys sit alongside our wider polo and rowing collections, bringing the same heritage colours and club-inspired artwork to both sides of the lead.

Great Danes turn an ordinary walk into an occasion rather easily. They may as well dress accordingly.
