Choosing Bondage Wrist Restraints and Ankle Cuffs


What is the Intended Use?

Before buying any bondage restraints, determine how you intend to use them. Is it a simple light bedroom play on the bed or an intense BDSM session in a dungeon? Also consider the positions you want to assume, are you thinking eagle bed bondage, hogtie, frogtie or suspension bondage? Because these will affect the designs and quality of the cuffs you choose.





What Material and Quality will Work for You?

Once you have considered how you need to use the restraints, think about the material and quality that will work for you. Most wrist restraints and ankle cuffs are made from leather, rope and metal. Leather is more recommended because it is flexible, strong and body safe. Go for genuine leather to make sure the cuffs serve you for a longer duration. Genuine leather also has a safety edge. It does not break easily when stress is exerted, making it perfect for intense BDSM play.

Most leather wrist restraints and ankle cuffs come fitted with metal fittings such as D-rings, 0-rings and locking buckles. Also consider if the wearer has metal allergies. If yes, choose those that the metal parts don’t touch the body. Inspect the type of metal used. It is also preferable if the bondage rings are welded to make they don’t snap when pressure is exerted.


For those who love the kicky hardcore look of rope and metal. For metal, choose a well-fitting size for more effectiveness. However, avoid attaching the wearer to anything, metal restraints tend to tighten when there is tugging and pulling during play. This can risk skin injuries and blood restriction to the fingers and feet causing permanent damage. Don’t choose rope unless you are advance and have training on how to safely tie the knots.


What the Wearer’s Size?

Most wrist restraints and ankles cuffs come in different sizes from small to large. Think about who you need to restraint. Do you plan to use the restraints on only your or multiple partners? If for you or your partner, measure the wrist and ankles to purchase your fitting size. For multiple partners, there are restraints and ankles cuffs that have adjustable straps hence can be worn by different sized people.


What Design and Color fits you play?

The design will be dictated by your personal preference and the type of games you plan to indulge in. Do you want a wrist restraints and ankle cuffs that can fit into multiple games such as bed bondage, furniture bondage? Are you planning to incorporate other bondage equipment's such as spreader bars, leashes and chains? Or you want specialized wrist restraints and ankle cuffs designed specifically for suspension bondage?



Another thing to consider is color. While most BDSM equipment's come in black. There are people who like spicing things up with different colors to lighten the mood and intrigue their playfulness. You will find wrist restraints and ankle cuffs in red, pink, animal print, neon and more. Pick a color that excites your sexual nerves and fits to your type of games.

How comfortable are the restraints?

Take consideration of the wearer’s comfort. Sexual stimulation does cause people to wriggle and sometime kick a lot during play. For that reason, consider how comfortable the cuffs will feel as the wearer wriggles and twist with pleasure and pain. For bondage beginners, pick wrist restraints and ankle cuffs that are lined with faux fur or padded. This will reduce friction and the possibilities of skin bruising. For intermediaries and advanced plays already used to intense body stimulation, a thin fabric lining will deliver the pressure that excites you. Another thing to consider is the body fullness of the wearer. If the wearer has thin bony hands, well-padded or furry restraints should be used even if the wearer is experienced to protect the bones from excessive pressure.



How easy are they to escape?

While you are buying wrist restraints and ankle cuffs to restrict the wearer’s movement, it is very important to consider how escapable the restraints are in the event of emergency. In case the wearer is in danger maybe restricted blood flow, extremely pain or unconscious, can you release them in a split second? What if the wheel turned and the Dom faints or has a medical problem, can the restrained person release themselves and get help? Always pick restraints that are easy to use and escapable especially if you are playing bedroom bondage.
