Bondage basics restraint kit - bdsm kit discontinued by Kinklab - review by melissa1973

This is a fantastic restraint kit by Kinklab which is a U.S.A. company (which is rare these days). Everything is sturdy, well made, and should last a very, very long time. This is a unisex product meaning that it can be used by men and women alike; it is not an either or product which I think is awesome. This is the basic kink kit which is in every kinksters kit regardless of your level of kink.

The set includes 2 wrist cuffs, 2 ankle cuffs, 1 blind fold, and 1 rope. The entire set is jet black except for the brackets that are on them.

Wrist cuffs:
10 1/2" in length, 2" wide, and can fit wrists from 7" up to include 10" which thankfully mine just happen to be. Any larger than 10" this will not fit the cuffs.


Ankle cuffs:
Length wise they're a little over 13" and 2" wide. It can fit ankles from 8 1/2" up to 13". Unfortunately mine are 12" at the moment. I have issues with retaining water and my ankles swell so there's no telling what size they'll be from one day to the next. Maybe my tape measure’s broke or something but the 13" ankle cuff doesn’t fit my 12" ankle as seen in the picture.

Both the wrist and ankle cuffs can be tied together with the rope by using the eye loops that are in them. Also you can lock them together by using snap hooks or locks.

Blind fold:
The piece facing the outside is leather like the rest of the pieces and measures 8" across, and the widest part over the eyes are just about 3". Now the inside is pretty awesome as far as a blind fold goes. It is made with a soft leather with some sort of sponge type of material making it soft and completely light proof. It has elastic for the head band for comfort and ease when putting this on.


The rope is a soft, beautiful, and is made out of very strong nylon. The rope measures in at 25' which is plenty long enough for just about any type of rope play.

There is some sort of fuzz on the back side of the cuffs both ankle and wrist; but none of the fuzz came off on my wrists, there was and still is none of it in the original storage bag. I have worn my wrist cuffs almost the whole month except when in the shower, dishes, or anything having to do with water. These beauties have been worn everywhere, to the stores, restaurants, movies, and yes even to bed. After having the wrist set on most of the month I have not chaffed.

The blind fold is soft against the eyes and so comfortable I tried to sleep with it on for a few nights but for some reason each morning I woke up it was off. I don't know if I took it off myself or if it slipped off during the night.

The ankle cuffs were a disappointment because they didn't fit but I'm trying to do something with them

Leather is suppose to be water resistant but I would be afraid to use water in any of these. I suggest a damp wash cloth with mild soap. The rag doesn't need to be soaking wet to work. According to the product page [https://www.edenfantasys.com/info/sexuality-articles/leather]: The leather is a water resistant material with a high tensile strength and high resistance to tear. Usually used for harnesses and restraints it has high resistance to flexing and to puncture. Good heat insulator.

The package is a plastic bag with a paper insert showing the kit in use. All we need to do is make sure all is open and flat and slide the 6 pieces back in and store it away.
