Thighcuffs by Sportsheets - review by rmiles124

These thighcuffs are the first edition to my soon to be extended beginners bondage collection. I never thought I would ever try bondage myself, but these have opened a whole new world to me. These are more for beginners, with a light restraint that can be easily worn, adjusted, and removed without fuss. I say they are for beginners because you can still minimally move around or unclasp yourself, unlike more advanced bondage which is meant to fully restrain the wearer. They're also not intended for suspension which some advanced users look for. Comfort is a MUST for me when choosing something like a restraint and these were comfortable to wear without any pinching or chaffing. There is a metal clasp on each harness that can withstand a good amount of pulling, tossing, tension, and tugging during play when hooked together. These would work perfectly paired with wrist cuffs, bed restraints, or almost any other restraints you already own. When I used them I connected them together first, then to wrist cuffs attached to a homemade bed restraint, paired with an eye mask and a ball gag. I was a very bad girl.

I've found myself wanting MORE!

These thighcuffs are made beautifully for such a low price. The neoprene (a synthetic rubber) material is very comfortable, feeling like the outside of a wetsuit on the part facing away from you, and the inside of a wetsuit on the material that is touching your skin. No matter how tight I cinched them in around my thighs, there was no discomfort, no pinching or poking. It is an easily cared for material that does not absorb dirt or debris and can be wiped down with a damp cloth when needed.

The clasps are made of some sort of metal and could be a little more heavy duty for confidence in extended use, but they do the job. They held up way better than velcro ever has or could. I despise velcro; it can scratch, come apart, and collect fuzzies and hair and thus fail to work correctly, where these clasps cannot! Without these clasps, the thighcuffs would be a completely different product that would fail miserably for its intended use.

When on, I could not fully extend my legs apart but could easily bring them together. When paired with wrist cuffs, it was harder to maneuver around. The adjusting tether is made of a nylon blend which held up against being snagged or torn and is almost impossible to rip. There is no real smell before or after use; perfect for those that are sensitive to smelly products. The cuffs do adjust up to 30 inches for desired fit and snugness around your thighs. My pictures show the material on the inside and out, and also the smallest and the largest size they will adjust to.

The thighcuffs have gone above and beyond my initial expectations. I figured with the first few tugs and pulls from my thighs the clasps would come apart. But to my delight, they have withstood it all. They work well alone or with a full restraint setup. They are very versatile and a necessity for anyones collection. They keep you feeling that bittersweet lack of control combined with the sexiness of not knowing what may come next.

The thighcuffs are easy to care for. The material is made to not absorb any foreign material or debris, so they do not stain. But if things get a little messy, wiping down with a damp washcloth will take care of it. Storing is a breeze as well; keeping it in its original container or in your bag or storage box will suffice. They are easy to discreetly hide in an underwear drawer or even beneath baggy pants if you want to be able to start "playing" at any time.

These restraints came in a clear plastic container. It opens easily and can be resealed. The container can be used as a storage box for after use and for traveling. I keep mine in the original container and slide it under my bed for easy access. It is thin enough that it can be slipped between a few clothes in a suitcase but not hidden easily in a purse or bag. Because it is clear, it can easily be identified in this box. An instructional and care pamphlet is included.

I suggest these to anyone who has ever thought about bondage but has been wary, or any person with experience in bondage. This is a great piece to spice up things. Anyone can be pleased in the experience with this light restraint.

When I ordered these thighcuffs I wasn't really sure of what I was getting into. My boyfriend had asked me about wearing wrist cuffs that he had, and I always avoided the subject not sure how I would actually feel about it. So when the thighcuffs arrived I had butterflies in my stomach. Why was I so nervous?
But it wasn't all nervousness, it was also the novelty of this adventure to come, and excitement I felt to bring something new out of myself into my sex life. So after opening the package and examining my new toy, I put on my favorite lace up black leather vest, lacey panties, and fishnets. Turned off the lights and turned on the little twinkle lights around my bed.
I sent a text to my boyfriend that I needed him upstairs. I told him I had "done something really bad". He ran upstairs to see what was wrong. When he walked in and saw the thighcuffs laying next to me, his clothes were off before I could walk over to him. First I wanted to put the restraints on him, but he did not like that idea. He wanted me to be his bitch and, Oh Shit! did I want to be his bitch. These things were like magic!
After he had his way with me, and I smoked my last cigarette, I vowed to myself to explore this new side of me.
