Do you often find yourself being scolded by your partner to "Keep quiet", or "Use your head"? With Aslan Leather's "Chin Up Harness", now you can do both, and actually enjoy it!
The Chin Up Harness is a finely crafted leather harness, designed to attach securely around the "giver's" head. It is constructed to hold the harness-compatible dildo of your choosing (not included) as a virtual phallic appendage of your face, providing your partner with a "mustache ride" to remember. (Please note that a mustache is not actually a prerequisite for this toy. In fact, if you did have a mustache it would be covered by the harness anyhow.)
The Chin Up Harness comes packaged in a re-sealable ("Ziploc" style) plastic baggie, where, upon opening you'll find that the intoxicating aroma of leather has obviously been brewing. Upon removing the harness, the first thing you'll notice is the quality of the garment-grade leather, which is thick enough to be strong and sturdy, while completely maintaining that velvety-soft texture. Attached to the harness, is a small bi-fold of Aslan Leather information and care instructions. As with all Aslan Leather products, this harness comes with a LIFETIME GUARANTEE!
The harness itself is attached to the wearer and adjusted by two strong Velcro closures: one that connects each of the side straps and sits at the base of the skull, and the other which goes over the top of the skull, and straight down to wrap around the first strap. The first time I put it on, it was a little awkward to get the hang of tightening it, and attaching the Velcro by myself, but still took less than a minute to get a secure fit. After that, it becomes much simpler, and you can even leave the top strap of Velcro closed when removing it, so that you don't have to adjust it every time you put it on. Once adjusted properly, this harness is SOLID. I must admit, I was a bit skeptical about Velcro closures at first, especially on a harness that will likely get ridden, pulled, and ground-into pretty hard; but after putting it on, my doubts were quickly put to rest.
The opening of harness is about 1 3/4" in diameter, and easily accommodates almost any harness-compatible dildo. Although that opening is near universal, a potential down-side of the harness could be that the opening is not adjustable, nor will it use any "harness rings" to hold anything in place. So, someone who is in love with their minuscule or monster sized dildo, may not be able to use it with this harness, but my guess is that those are few and far between. To mount a dildo in the harness, you simply slide it in from the back, prior to putting the harness on. This is an incredibly simple system, but it leads to my only complaint about the harness: The harness provides nothing between your mouth and the base of the dildo. While wearing this harness, the base of the dildo rests directly on top of your lips. It's not a huge deal, and it does hold the dildo in place very well, but if you try to open your mouth the dildo can shift, or part of its base can go inside your mouth. I would've preferred another leather flap (or even better a GAG) on the back of the harness that could be closed by Velcro or something after the dildo was inserted, to enclose the base of it. I'm just being nit-picky though, and the simple solution is to just keep your mouth closed, and there aren't any problems with it.
As far as performance, it works VERY well. The harness stays in place quite firmly, even under extreme... er... "stress," and the dildo stays in place equally as well, as long as you keep your mouth closed. This harness is also tons of fun because not only is it something different, but it provides the wearer with QUITE a show, and there are countless positions that it can be used in, from cowgirl positions, to doggie style, standing, sitting, etc... if you can think of it, you can screw it with your face!
All Aslan Leather comes already treated, so maintenance is minimal. To clean it, just wipe the leather off with a damp rag and mild soap, but avoid submerging it in water. After cleaning, dry it a best you can (you can use a q-tip to get into tight crevices), and store it out of direct sunlight which can dry leather out.
We are very pleased with pretty much everything about this harness from the quality, to the performance, and it is a great addition to our toy box, that will be used for a long time to come!

Experience
When the toy first arrived and we opened it, my wife was immediately pleading with me to try it on. Not being one to disappoint her sexual desires, I ran upstairs, bee-lined to the toy box, grabbed the first dildo on the top of the pile (the Tantus Silk medium in this case), and returned back downstairs to her; and that is how it came to be, that on that particular afternoon, I ended up gallivanting around the house, with a sizable purple dildo strapped to my face. I bet not to many people can say they've done that!
My wife being a dominant, and me being a submissive, a harness such as this one panders to us quite well, and gives us a lot of flexibility for experiencing new types of play. For example, I'm no stranger to face grinding. In fact, I probably enjoy as much as my wife does... well... almost. This harness offers a completely different dynamic though, as now we have the option of adding penetration, which also raises the action high enough off of my face, that I can get an amazing up-close show to drive me wild as well.
Overall, my favorite way to use this toy is while tied up. There's nothing quite like giving her all the pleasure she wants as she rides my face, while being completely transfixed on all the action, as she touches and teases me, while helplessly bound to do anything about it.

Follow-up commentary
11 months after original review
This harness has held up great over time. Granted, we don't get it out and use it daily, or even weekly, but every time we do pull it from the toy box (and out of its bag) we're reminded of the amazing quality of Aslan products. The leather is still as soft and supple as ever, the sweet scent is ever present, the velcro holds as well as the day we got it, and the stitching is still perfectly intact. As far as I'm concerned, Aslan products are among the best in leather craft, and this harness motivates me to buy more from them in the future.

Thank you for viewing Chin up harness – sex toy review page!



Great review LiftedUp! I'd been thinking of requesting it but always seemed to forget, it looks like a really nice harness!
One question: in the cons you said nothing to protect your mouth, do you think if you thrust to hard that there is a chance of hurting your mouth in any way?
Excellent review! Humorous too
Thanks for the comments guys.
Avery,
I can't imagine that any strength or amount of thrusting could hurt your mouth from it?! We only use 100% silicone dildos though, which means they have a bit of give to them, and the bases are relatively soft. I certainly wouldn't ever try using a plastic or glass dildo or something like that in this harness, but I think I'd have a hard time finding anyone foolish enough to do something like that?! From normal use with a silicone dildo, your lips might get a little bit sensitive or tender after using it, but no more than they would be from a normal session of face grinding.
Great review. I had been looking at this for a while. I'd love to give it a try, but I don't have anyone to play with it. I bet the view you get is an entirely different set of visuals than before. I do want one now!
Awesome review. I've always wondered what it would be like to stick one of these on my boyfriend's face... I guess that's a "someday" for us!
I'd really be more concerned about getting too vigorous with it and breaking teeth...is that a possibility?
Mr. Sauce,
Did you read my comments above? I addressed the mouth issue here in the comments section. But to reiterate, we only use high quality 100% pure silicone dildos, which act to somewhat cushion any pressure from the dildo on to your mouth. I generally keep my mouth closed while wearing the harness, and we have had no issues with it hurting my mouth or teeth in any way. I can't imagine it breaking any teeth unless the wearer tried something foolish like holding a glass dildo in their mouth while the rider mounted it?!
LiftedUp
Brilliant review!
Great Review!
freaky
I'm fucking obsessed with this.
Great review. It looks like it could be a lot of fun for both me and the wife.
Good review, though the lack of any backing behind the dildo is a bit of a concern. But, glad to know that silicone dildos work fine with it and don't hurt your mouth. Thanks!
Thanks for the review!
