Senso-sleeves - penis sleeve by Cal Exotics - review by PropertyOfPotter

Senso-sleeves by Cal Exotics are thin textured sleeves that can be placed around the penis like a condom, or on a toy to add additional stimulation to intercourse and solo play.

These sleeves can be put on standard vibrators and dildos to make them more exciting and are especially nice if you are very sensitive to textures. Using these on a penis during intercourse can add additional pleasure for both the giver and receiver, and work nicely to desensitize if there's an issue with pre-mature ejaculation.

These work for both new toy users and advanced users, and can be used with a partner or during solo time since they can be placed on a variety of your favorite solo toys.

Please keep in mind that these should not replace condoms! Though these might look like thicker, glorified condoms, they do not compare and the transfer of STD's and possibility of pregnancy are still possible if used in that manner.

These sleeves are made from TPR Silicone which rates a 6/10 on the Eden material safety scale. They are hypo-allergenic, latex free, and phthalates free, but are somewhat porous and caution should be used when sharing with multiple partners.

This thin material is very soft and stretchy, but holds it's shape very well. It can stretch to accommodate average to a little above average penis girth, but don't work the best when stretching lengthwise.


There was only a slight smell when I first received these, but after washing and airing out, the smell was no longer there. There's also a lot of drag to the material even when used with lubrication, which also means that these are total lint magnets! Make sure to clean before and after each use because of that fact.

These sleeves are covered in a variety of textures, and are very obvious when you run your fingers along the outside, but aren't picked up on as much vaginally since the material is so soft. The inside doesn't have obvious texture, but since they are so thin, the texture can be felt by the wearer as well.


Some parts of the sleeves have a bumpy texture while others give off more of a tickling feeling. The sleeves each have a slightly different look to them, but feel about the same though there's an obvious difference.

These sleeves are made to fit the penis or toy you're using, like a glove. They are supposed to be fitted and feel almost like a second skin to the wearer. This might be a problem if you're on the larger side when it comes to penis girth, as you might feel like the bottom is cutting off circulation to your penis. My husband is slightly above average, and these were a little tight, but not uncomfortable on him.

The look of these when not in use, truly remind me of a highly textured, thick, unrolled condom.


I imagine that these would be fitted on any size penis, but you might find that it swims on smaller toys. I would only suggest using these with a toy that it is fitted to.

These can be a little difficult to put on. The way that worked best for us, was to stretch the sleeve with both hands and put the top of the sleeve directly on the head of the penis (or toy) and gently lay the sides down, putting it into place. We tried rolling it like a condom and that didn't work as well. And trying to just slide it down with some lube didn't work out great either.

There's no way to adjust the size of this toy. It either stretches to fit you, or it doesn't. With that being said, it would work on a variety of sizes, but does have more trouble stretching lengthwise. If you're more than a little above average in length, you might find these sleeves to be too short to comfortably use.

The comfort during use is going to depend on the size of the wearer. For a shorter period of time, they were fine for my husband, but I think extended use would end up causing some discomfort since they're so fitted.

Length: 5 1/2"
Tip: 1/2"
Unstretched Diameter: 1 3/8"
Nubs: 1/16" - 1/4"
Thickness: 1/32"

Senso-sleeves can be cleaned with antibacterial soap and warm water or your favorite sex toy cleaner and should be left to air dry before storing.

TPR Silicone is safely used with water based lubricants only. Any other type could cause harm to your toy and make the material break down. Also use caution with storing these around toys of similar material for the same reason. The package that the sleeves come in works great for storing them.

These sleeves came to me in a very simple package. It's thin, clear clam-shell plastic package, with only a small paper at the toy saying what the product is and the company that makes it. There's no description or instruction on how these should be used. The package isn't discreet since you can see right through it, but it doesn't have any nudity or anything offensive on it either.




The package works great for storage, but does take up a little more room than necessary for these toys. Storing them in a small plastic bag would work fine, but I would suggest using something as a package, since they pick up dust and lint so easily.

Our experience with these sleeves was less than desirable. I tried one first on a vibrator and was highly disappointed. It fit the vibe nicely and I liked that, but when I slide it inside of me, even trying desperately to focus on feeling, I couldn't feel anything different! I turned off the power and tried that, and none of the texture was obvious to me. I think it's because the material is just too soft to really stimulate.

When my husband and I decided to use them, I became even more disappointed! When we went to stretch the first one to put on his penis, the material tore; leaving us with one dud and one we could still hopefully enjoy together.


The second one went on without a problem and he slide into me. I was trying to focus on feeling the nubs again, and had no success. He said that it felt okay to him, the texture wasn't super obvious, but he could feel that there was something. We don't use condoms and prefer that there's nothing between us, but I thought this might bring us a little something different. We were both disappointed by the experience. Being intimate with each other still felt good, but the sleeve didn't feel any different and didn't add anything to our love making.
