Pink candy Minx - double strap by ASLAN Leather - review by AngelvMaynard

The Pink candy Minx is a double strap on harness made of fantastically crafted leather by Aslan Leather. This hot little number can be used by beginners on up to the more experienced strap on user. The design is obviously for strap on use but this baby is so pretty and sexy you can saddle up in it just to wear around the house if you are feeling "randy" (I just got back from the U.K. and I'm feeling very Austin Powers like). With it's corset design and hot pink and white colors, I would say this has a very feminine appeal to it. However, don't let the color keep you guys from putting this on and using it with your partner. Role reversal can be very empowering and sexy! While some strap ons can look intimidating to the beginner, this piece invites you to put it on and feel pretty; pretty in pink!

The Pink candy Minx is made of 100% leather (well the hardware is made of stainless steel) and has the look, feel, smell and sound of a nice saddle. I love the creak of well fit leather when you move in it. At 0.75 pounds this garment has enough weight to stay in place on your hips once you strap it on. The leather feels of high quality and you can smell the sweet leather perfume as soon as you take it out of the bag. It already has somewhat of a broken in feel to it straight out of the packaging, but I've worn it 3 times now and with each use it gets more and more pliable without losing it's intended shape. That's the sign of a top quality leather product. The leather molds well when wearing it and is thick and soft enough not to irritate the skin. It is body fluid safe but I wouldn't dunk it in the tub or take a shower in it, it is real leather after all and it will stain and warp if you get it too wet.

Expertly designed, the Pink candy Minx is meant to settle on your hips with the added back straps to hold up your buns (butt cheeks). Looking at the strap on from the front you have a triangle shaped front piece that has the opening for the inserted dildo of your choice (within a 2" diameter) the O-ring is held in place by three leather straps with metal snaps that can be opened for replacing the O-ring. The O-ring that it comes with is made of rubber. So, you could easily replace that with some other material O-ring if you like. From the top of the center piece triangle you have two D-rings that attach the hip straps. This is a genius design because they have made enough fitted holes to have this garment fit a hip width of 28" up to 60".
The back side attachment is made up of two solid pieces of leather that corset together with 6 eyelet gatherings on each side. There is nylon string holding them together with enough length to either cinch it in super tight or let it out as far as you need to for comfort. The two leather center pieces graduate to thinner strips as it curves around the hips and buckles together in the front. The back buckle straps have two looped pieces of leather strapping that angle down and wrap around the butt. This too can be adjusted by a double loop tightener. I pulled those suckers up so high my butt cheeks were sitting up like a shelf! You could have set you coffee cup on it, if you were so inclined!
All of the straps come together in the crotch area and attach again to the front triangle piece.

I can't speak highly enough about the excellent way this garment fits! Almost every piece of it can be adjusted to fit almost any size. From the hip straps to the lacing of the corset to the butt tuckers (as I like to call the straps on the back end) you can adjust everything. Each side is individually adjustable too. So, if you have one hip or one butt cheek bigger (or smaller, however you want to look at it) you can accommodate it.
This also can sit rather flush on your body, so it can be worn under clothes if you wanted to. If you are on the smaller side, it might be a little harder to hide the straps, but I'm sure where there's a will there's a way!
It did take me a few minutes, at first use, to figure out the right configuration for me. So, I would give this a test run before you decide to incorporate it into a play session to get the right fit. The one thing that I wasn't over the moon about was the double loop securing back straps on the back. They are more or less behind you when putting the garment on, so I had to look behind me to get them tight enough. I tried tightening them before putting it on and couldn't get the fit right. I had trouble with the double loop getting it tight enough. Once I did get it tight, it would loosen up on it's own during play. I'm hoping with time and softening of the leather it will eventually stay in place better.

The Pink candy Minx is designed to fit an up to 2" size dildo in place with the O-ring while fitting snug on your body. I found that it was very comfortable to wear and once the dildo was in place it didn't go anywhere I didn't want it to. I would suggest a dildo with a flush or flanged bottom. This will not work well with balls attached. I tried and my big balls kept getting in the way! Because the leather conforms to your body it doesn't slip around much after you have it secured with the buckles. There was no chafing, no irritation and no pinching involved any of the times I've worn it. It does however creak like leather, which I think is very sexy. I'm on the look out for some hot pink cowboy boots to wear with it. I kind of feel like saddling up and going for a ride every time I put it on!

Like I said above, this is 100% real leather and you have to care for it as such. If you do need to clean it, I would suggest damp cloth and a minimal amount of soap to wash it up. I would also think that leather cleaner would work on it as well, just not in the crotch area where that could irritate and cause problems. I'd keep the crotch cleaning to a damp cloth and a little soap. Make sure that you dry it off and keep it in a dry place for storage. I've kept mine in the plastic zip lock bag it came in to store.

The packaging is pretty basic. It comes in a clear thin plastic zip lock bag. It has an Aslan Leather logo tag attached to the strap on. I've used the bag for storage since I received it. It has held up well. Of course being a simple clear plastic bag, all the contents are visible, so if you don't want anyone to know what's in the bag I wouldn't open the package in front of them.

I already own a Doc Johnson's Ultra Harness 3000. I knew that it wasn't a great fit, but I never knew how very ill fitted it was until I got the Pink candy Minx. I believe had I owned an Aslan Harness first, I would not have ever looked for another one again. This product is well worth the high dollar amount. Even the difference in the leather quality from the Doc Johnson Harness to this one is unbelievable.

I found this strap on to be the best quality leather I could possibly imagine. The adjustable fit is perfect for me and the comfort while wearing it is amazing! It is of course on the pricey side, but when was the last time you bought a good quality leather product that didn't cost on the higher end? You absolutely get what you pay for. I look at a product like this as an investment in your sexy life. You might pay a little more for it now, but with proper care and maintenance you will never have to buy another one.
