Impressions crop - bondage toy by Sportsheets - review by Danielle915

So I have never experienced crop play before. When I saw this crop, the price was right and after all, I just wanted to try it out. I had planned on buying a more expensive crop after trying this as I really wasn't expecting much based on the price. I even had a "better" crop picked out for when this one broke on me or just was a bad quality nightmare. Overall, I was very impressed with the quality of this, especially given the EXTREMELY low price tag.

I got this in the mail and opened the box immediately. The crop came attached in two places to a white cardboard piece that had some very basic information on the front and back. It also had a spot on top where it could hang, possibly in a sex store. The crop top is made of a black phthalate free faux leather with three metal studs and the handle has one metal stud and is made of the same material, with a plastic rod connecting the two. This makes for a very flexible crop, so keep this in mind when it comes to performance, if you like flexibility then you will like this. For something more rigid, go with a more expensive crop. There is no smell or taste to this material at all. Directly beneath the handle is an attached loop that can be put around your wrist while in use, this was very comfortable for me and is how I used this. For some this could get annoying, but I did find that if I didn't put it around my wrist that it did get in the way. It could be used either way though. The top part is faux leather wrapped around a red piece of plastic which is shown through a heart cutout. This is called the "impressions" crop because it is supposed to make an impression of a heart on the skin. I haven't been able to do this, and I'm not sure it is even possible, but I will keep trying.

This is great for role play, being dominatrix woman (haha), or just anyone who wants to experience some light or heavy pain (a hard beating is also a nice way to describe it). It makes a great costume prop too.

This crop is not very long at all. With the loop at the end it measures in at 23 inches long and the crop part is 2 inches wide. This makes it a great beginners crop because it is easy to control. This crop, depending on how it is used can give off a lot of pain or very little pain. Basically, the more fabric you use to hit, the more pain or sting will be given off. Of course the more force you use, the more pain or sting will be inflicted, as with anything. I noticed it did get stingy when I just hit with the tip or corner of the top, which I personally enjoyed. This is a great beginner's crop not only because of the price but also the ease of use and control. The more intermediate to advanced users might need something with a little more "oomph" and probably some length too. For me, being a beginner, I really do love it. It was very satisfying to use this on my husband, as he did enjoy this just as much, or more, than I did. I can see this being great for both heavy and light play and seems to be holding up so far.

Cleaning is very easy and can be done with a warm washcloth and soap, hang to dry.
