Jaguar - jock style by ASLAN Leather - review by ellieprobable

This harness is of fantastic quality and will be great for anyone who wants to incorporate strap-on play and enjoy the look and feel of leather. The shaping is sturdy and works with a variety of body types. This is the easiest harness I've ever used and the cost is the only thing that might dissuade beginners. However, it should also be the only harness you ever need to buy.

ASLAN Leather is not messing around with their products, and the Jaguar harness is no exception. This black leather harness is supple, soft to the touch, and very sexy. You get the leather smell and feel against your skin. The harness hugs curves in a satisfying manner so you can get it very snug to your body. Leather is not a strictly waterproof material so you can't saturate it, but you can clean the surface with a damp cloth and use leather conditioner to keep the material moisturized and supple. Of course, this material might not be ideal for very messy play and obviously is not vegan. The leather is finished on both sides and did not bleed, crack, or shed in any way.

The first word that comes to mind when I think about this harness is "sturdy". It has an almost imposing look and feels like you're putting on something pretty serious. All of the straps are adjustable to your body shape and intuitive to maneuver. The variety of included O-rings mean that you can use toys of several sizes in it without having to get any accessories. The finishing on it is impeccable. I've had mine for a few years and see no defects in quality or workmanship with appropriate care.

The size is widely adjustable. At a size 20 (5'5" 230 pounds) I was at the far end of the range of the straps. Anyone much bigger might have trouble. The manufacturers suggest 42" as a maximum hip size. I managed to fudge that by several inches and still feel sexy in it. Smaller people should have little trouble adjusting it down, as I've loaned it to a size 6 friend who was still able to get everything snug and comfortable.

I've never had a toy fall of of this harness. I've never had this harness fall off my hips. I've never had it dig in uncomfortably or get twisted. Basically, none of my complaints about other harnesses have applied to this one. It just works. Once I have it adjusted, I can usually slip it on and off without unbuckling the straps so I can get in and out of it very quickly. I've used it in every position that I can come up with on both male-bodied and female-bodied partners.

I know this harness is performing well because after I get it on, I don't think about it anymore. It lets me attach a toy and then focus on what I want to do with that toy. I think this is the most anyone can ask of a great harness.

I wipe this harness clean with a damp rag after use. I have used a mild detergent on it as well. I would not submerge it in water to prevent damage to the leather. I do think it is important to care for it promptly after use. It can also be conditioned with a leather cleaner to help keep it shiny, moisturized and supple. Some users have reported the metal fasteners rusting but I have not experienced this. Drying it promptly after cleaning would help avoid this problem.

This harness comes in very simple packaging. It arrived in a plastic bag with a small tag on it. There were no instructions provided for use or care. I might have appreciated maintenance instructions but otherwise it was self-explanatory.

I don't get a ton of use out of any of my harnesses but this has been the one I've reached for continually since I got it. I think it would serve a person that was using it constantly as well as someone that only dabbles with it.
