I just bought these collars for our pups:

They had the plain nylon before and was grossed out by how dirty they get even after laundry washing. My pups just are drawn to water and mud, so this was a perfect collar! They are on the "stiffer" side, but I love how easy they are to clean. I usually use these for walks, outings, and such.
Small is good for puppies, but I believe a medium would be perfect for an average sized full grown husky. I got both sizes...the large I think would be huge unless your husky is on the above average spectrum.
