Pink candy jaguar cuffs - bondage toy by ASLAN Leather - review by SydVicious

Can I just say I am in love with these cuffs. They are PINK and they don't suck! I love me some girly colors but most of the time bondage items in cutesy colors means they are cheaply made and won't stand up to rough play for long. These cuffs, however, are the real deal. So, struggle all you want, you arn't going anywhere.

These Pink Candy cuffs are the same design as the regular Jaguar cuffs only prettier. Once you have the cuffs on, there a little ring on the buckle that allows for a small lock to be put in place. So not only can you be bound to something, but you can also be locked into the cuffs making escape pretty much impossible.

Out of the box there is no way to connect the cuffs together. That part is up to you. You can easily tie a rope, or use a lock to connect them together. For me, I want something that is going to be visually appealing as well as practical. The best I have come up with so far is a simple steel lock with a key. Although, in some situations I need to have a bit more space between my wrists. Aslan makes a two-way connector that will give you a few inches space between your wrists, but it doesn't match these cuffs. Another option is snap hooks. They don't "lock" but it's an easy way to hook the cuffs together or to a spreader bar.

This is my first product from Aslan leather, but it won't be my last. These cuffs are awesome. I love the color choices. I don't want to have to settle for black leather, just to get a quality pair of cuffs. Candy cuffs are made of soft magenta leather with a firm heavy white leather strap. The inside is lined with a soft vegan leather that creates a tiny bit of padding. It's all held together by seven smooth flat studs. Equipped with a nickle plated D ring as well as a buckle that can be locked in place. You (or your partner) arn't going anywhere.

I have a jewel studded dog collar that I wear as a bracelet very frequently, and I was hoping to be able to wear one of these as a bracelet also. The only problem is they are a bit bulky at the buckle. When I have them secured, there are about 5 layers of leather overlapping and I can see that thick buckle area getting bumped an awful lot when wearing as a bracelet. Now if these were made a black leather, the bumping wouldn't be a very big deal, but I think this white leather might get marked up pretty easily. It's a pure crisp white and although it is great quality, white tends to show every little imperfection. So, because I want to keep these babies and pretty as possible, I'm going to keep these at home.

I have larger wrists and I had no trouble getting these to fit, with a couple notches to spare. I don't imagine there are many people who wouldn't be able to use these on their wrists. I imagine if you have very dainty ankles, they might fit there also, but they didn't work for me.

The 2 inch wide magenta area of the cuff is just a hair shy of 9 inches long. The buckle and white leather strap measure just over 12 inches long. I would say these cuffs should fit a wrist or ankle up to 9.5 inches in circumference.

I have nothing but good things to say. They are made for restraining, and that's just what they do. They really are wonderful cuffs. They have held up really well so far, and I think they will be a favorite for years to come.

I can easily get these on myself, but they fit much better when a partner puts them on. It's much easier for my husband to get a nice snug fit than it is for me to do it myself. Also, it's much more fun to have someone else strap you in. ;)

During use, I though these cuffs were very comfortable. The soft vegan leather on the inside of the cuffs is about 1/8 of an inch thick and creates a bit of a cushion. Now that being said, these arn't super plush padded cuffs. I have come away with a bit of tenderness on my wrist after pulling while restrained, the skin around that little bone on the top outside of my wrist was a bit tender.

There is a little tag attached to the cuffs that explains how to care for these cuffs. It instructs the user to wash with a "moist cloth and a little soap." Rub a little dish soap on the area that needs to be cleaned, wipe with damp cloth and they dry immediately. There is also a little blurb that states that you should never soak or submerge leather in water.

Aslan leather is guaranteed for life. If the item has a defect or something breaks due to normal use, you can simply contact them and they will repair or replace your item for you. Now that is what I call standing behind your product.

The packaging is almost non existent on these cuffs. They come in a clear plastic bag, bound together, laying flat with one tiny little tag that explains care and warranty issues. The the first this I did was curl them up and buckle them so they would be ready to go for the next play time. I have been keeping them in the plastic bag, but I think keeping them in plastic may not be the best idea. Leather really should be able to breath, but I don't want them to get scratched or damaged, so a cloth toy bag is a good idea.
