Dog Tag

The so-called Dog Tags are a pendant in the form of a flat plate. This is rectangular and has a relatively large surface area, which makes it wonderfully personalizable. A dog tag can be engraved with names, initials, messages or dedications, but also with patterns or symbols. Originally, metal dog tags were used as identification tags for soldiers. This basic idea is still valid today. If a soldier has been killed in action, he can be identified by the dog tag. For military purposes, this is usually worn twice on a chain in order to be able to clearly identify the fallen soldier later. The dog tag contains personal data such as name, personal number, country code, blood group and, if necessary, the social security number and religion. But the dog tag is not only used for pragmatic purposes, it is also considered a real fashion accessory today. The dog tags are particularly popular in the music scene. Individually engraved, dog tags are worn by men, but also by women for the so-called boyfriend style. But even without engraving, the necklaces make something special, not least because of the wide range of different variations and styles. Dog Tags made of stainless steel, silver or gold offer a wide range of possible combinations on various types of chains, such as tank, ball or leather chains. By the way - dog tags get their name from classic dog tags. These are also worn around the neck to identify the human's best friend.
