Ideal Strap/Restraint Types

In reference to the female anatomy, soft leather straps are the most appealing form of restraint for the wrists, ankles, arms, legs, waist and chest (above and below the breasts). A straitjacket would also be great, but only those with the double crotch strap so as to keep the crotch clear for "treatments".

Straps that are too narrow and cut into the skin, which is not permissible in my research. What widths do most people see to prefer. Squeeky leather (makes a sound when stressed) seems to add to the experience.

When a vibrator is applied, it is important to keep the hips immobile and unable to move aware from the device. The thighs must also be keep at bay due to the powerful muscles.

Anyone have any stories of successful restraints, do's and don'ts?

I could probably handle the straps as long as I have some give-the straightjacket,no.I can't handle that much restraint.At least with the straps,your arms are able to be apart and not constricting against you.

I have seen videos of straitjackets both tightly applied and with some slack (but not enough to allow escape). My favorite is a leather straitjacket popularized by an artist that I believe resided in England. The jacket was like a second skin upon it victims (I mean, wearers) and utilized a two leather crotch straps that permitted access to those vital regions between the legs.

The classic, institutional canvas straitjackets with the single crotch strap are also nice. I wonder what a lady would experience wearing one with no garmet to cover her breasts. I imagine the rubbing of the canvas material across the breasts and nipples would possibly be pleasant. while the single crotch strap could permit the lady to pleasure herself with enough struggling, this could possibly be prevented if where were laying on her back on a bed with her legs spread and strapped down.

Oh, to see a feminine form in a snug straitjacket, on her back on a bed with leather cuffs around her ankles, legs separated, struggling to escape or to get her hands free.

I think it would be fun to be strapped down but I have to be able to dictate the details of what would take place unless I want to be placed in a mental ward!Everyone has limits to how much restraining they can mentally take and pushing past that limit would do more harm than good for the person if they can't trust the person to respect the boundries.I realize that alot of people like that part but I need to be able to say hey-I can't do this-either loosen up or get me out!If the restrained person knows that he/she won't have that ability,they won't do it again.Don't know if I'm the only one like this but I do feel this needs addressed for the mental well being of anyone who does volunteer for this type of activity.

I absolutely agree with you. Your comments emphasize the importance of establishing important safe words.

Equally important to the dominant knowing his/her submissive partner, the submissive must also be proactive in communicating his/her likes and dislikes prior to the activity (along with the safe words). It is way too easy for either person to get lost in the moment, either failing to recognize negative responses, or, being unable to coherently communicate feedback.

I like to be tied with soft things like scarves or stockings, but it's more symbolic and sensual, with her authority being the stronger bond. But that's a male perspective as the sub.

Everyone is different on their preferred restraint type. I am particularily fond of leather. I agree with you, tommieboy, with the point you made about the authority of the woman over the man in the play scenario. It would be so wonderful to be able to stop having to worry about anything and be in a submissive role while she takes care of me. The recharge of such an encounter is so revitalizing.Referring back to the above comments, straitjackets do not always have to be applied in tight, constrictive fashion such that the experience is so unpleasant. A lady can wear a canvas jacket with a significant amount of slack in the sleeves to not cut the circulation or make her feel uncomfortable or "boxed in", yet with no hope of escape. In fact, I think the more slack in the arms allow more comfort but adds a lot of pleasant and foreplay-like frustration. This, I think, would have the potential of multiply the sensations; however, it still may not be for everyone.I would encourage you to give it a try with someone you really trust.

My preference is leather - wide, soft leather.

Have you ever tried shackles, either metal or leather?

I think that half inch wide leather straps well soaked in warm water make the best type of strap restraint for limbs and a harness gag.

They tighten slightly as they dry out so just when she is getting used to them they keep reminding her of their presence on her arms and legs. Specially effective when the wearer has to be strapped up for more than an hour.

I never was a fan of handcuffs - to thin. They never appealed to me.

Rope never caught my interest. Too simplistic, though cost effective.

There is something about seeing leather against the skin, but not too tight. Carefully wrapped around a wrist or ankle, cinching her waist enough to keep the strap from sliding up the chest of down the hips. The image of the end of the strap bobbing up and down as she vainly tries to move or slide her wrists through the imprisoning loops. Her frustration trying to bend her hand and fingers to reach the buckle.

Thank you for the tip about soaking the leather in water prior to application how wet do the straps have to be before putting them on and do they get damaged if they shink ? thanks for the info

I'm thinking that if you're going for forced stimulation, restraining someone to bondage furniture might be a good idea. This could be something purchased complete with straps, or something home made (if you're handy).

Aside from that, a little creativity in bondage goes a long way. For example, if your subject if flexible enough, place her on her back with her knees drawn up to her chest. Place her arms between her legs, then draw them out to her sides behind her thighs, and restrain the wrists spread-eagle style. Voila...her arms now lock her legs in place, no additional apparatus needed.

You can problably think of similar situations, given some time and inspiriation.

Take a look at this item. It should be easy to set up as well as to remove. Most important, it should be even easier to use to secure you. I have heard from one friend that the velcro cuffs are not easy to remove. She said there was no way she could get free without her husband's assistance.

I'm pretty casual at this stage , the padded, velcro sportsheets cuffs and tethers have been alot of fun, of course they don't lock or look as sexy as leather cuffs but they do a great job of restraining the person in a variety of ways.

I agree that the Velcro cuffs did not look as sexy as leather. The is something about leather against the skin that rope or any cloth cannot seem to emulate in my mind. I read a post by someone years ago in which it was mentioned that the mind perceives leather as a "second skin." This seems logical for leather that is comfortably cinched around the wrists, ankles and waist; however, I just like the look of a woman struggling to pull her hands and ankles free of leather. Her fingers attempting in vain to reach the buckles or the often small length of strap coming out of the strap that bounces teasingly with every move she makes.

I'm sorry, but it seems my train of thought became slight derailed.

The restraint bed and Velcro cuff system appears to fit the bill of being portable, easy to apply to any bed scenario without relying on bed posts of the support frame, and easy/quick to remove by simply detaching the cuffs and pulling the main strap from underneath the mattress. It also appears to be adjustable for possibly any mattress size.

I would like to make a similar system, but with detachable leather cuffs versus the Velcro. Regardless of the material, maybe someday I can rendezvous with a lady on a business trip, prepare the restraint system on the bed in the hotel, then wrestle her into the straps. Better yet, I would like to trick her into those restraints, and watch her surprise once she realizes her predicament. Excuse me while I brew a fresh pot of coffee and ponder what I will do to her next.

I find leahter belts work great for this type pf bondage !! cheap easy to use and almost immposible to break !!! and if left around nobody thinks any wiser

The thought of a woman, lying on her back on the bed, looking at the leather cuffs around her wrist and ankles, testing her ability (or affirming her inability) to wiggle either of her wrists free. Each hand can almost reach the buckle on the cuff on the opposite wrist.

Standing at the side of the bed, smiling and looking into her eyes, I reach down as if to unbuckle one of the wrist cuffs only to pull the tethering strap tighter so her wrist is pulled closer to the side of the bed. The same is done with the other wrist and both ankles. Eventually, she is comfortably stretched out spreadeagle on the mattress.

Her helpless situation is confirmed as I reach and begin to unbutton the the top of her blouse. She can only watch, realizing she is about to be undressed, and she cannot do anything to stop me. The only torment she will experience from me is a slow, teasing process of being unclothed.

Squirm all your want - you're not going anywhere.

Not to hard to get leather cuffs that lock and also have a D ring that can attach quickly to tethers on the bed, Visible or hidden if your into surprise. I use carribeaner clips with my cuffs, They aren't locking but they are just far enough out of reach when cuffed and strapped down that the girl can't get to it to release it. Have to think it out a bit too so the forces go against getting closer to release also.

I'm with Strapherdown on this one; got quality, supple and strict black or brown leather does it for me - whether through a body harness or cuffs, or preferrebly a straitjacket? BD MAX has some good pictures of attractive ladies in leather straitjackets incorporating a leather face muzzle type aware.

Delicious!

My gf and me just use ropes soaked in wet water

My Gf and me use Segufix system belt

Hi

I found this, hope you enjoy it

I've never tried leather but know that velcro is IMPOSSIBLE to get out of and usually pretty comfy. I have very small hands and I can pull right out of anything else unless it is so tight it hurts and where's the fun in that?

Segufix system is for me the ultimate bed restraint! Once secured in, there is no way to exit. I try since few months but without any result.

Re: wetting leather straps, usually 10 minutes is enough. In any case, just soak them until they feel softer and more flexible.

I always wet my girls' gag straps first anyway so it is softer on their cheeks.

When drying, new leather may shrink over an hour more then you expect so make sure her gag ball is securely in place so the neighbors aren't disturbed too much by excess noise.

Hope to try soft scarves soon, both in being tied and tying someone else up. Not sure about a mouth gag though, at least not the first time, but blindfolded would I think enhance the experience for me.

I like leather, too. On a budget, the "dollar stores" sometimes have leather dog or cat collars. Might have to add a hole or 2 to make 'em fit, but they work great.

If you are skilled at sewing, you can make you own under the bed system. I have made my own that tethers one to the four corners and very securely, and hides away when not needed.

I use and enjoy pretty much any form of restraint as long as I cannot get free, I have a modified Posey straitjacket, all the straps have been replaced with locking versions, also it now has twin crotch straps which also lock, I like to be put in this wearing thick nappies and plastic pants. The single crotch strap used to eventually slide of the diaper and become loose in the gap between the nappy bulk and thigh which is annoying, the twin straps prevent this and get tightened up tighter in the thighs and therefore cannot loosen. Once locked in I can be left wandering the house trying to get free, with the normal jacket it is easy to get out by rubbing the straps against door handles ect, no way with the locked versions though! I also have fetters locking mitts, they can be soooo frustrating when trying to escape, they can be locked to a bed ect and do not leave marks on your wrists even if you struggle quite hard, you can feel the wrists are a little sore the following day but nothing much to worry about.

When I visit my cross dresser friend, I bring extra nylons to tie him up. I like the feel and so does he.
