Show no restraint, just tie me up.

Anyone interested in light bondage or merely wanting to spice things up in the bedroom may be tempted to invest in these delicious restraints. They work quite well and look great while doing it. You'll look great while "doing it" too as you're tied up and at your lover's (or they at your) mercy.

Design / Craftsmanship / Material / Size / Fit

The restraints are made from a "silky" material, not real silk. They are quite soft, but feel sort of like costume fabric. There are two seperate pieces, both measuring around 4 feet long and 4 inches wide. The sash material caused no chaffing. Prolonged use did not cause any noticeable damage and the knots stay in place well. Soft to the touch although the material does not feel as "luxurious" as I had hoped for.
    • Will fit most people
    • Discreet look/design
    • Multiple ways to use

Performance

The restraints worked exceptionally well for a number of tasks. My husband and I used them for blindfolds, arm restraints, leg restraints, tying one another to available furniture/bedding (or to each other), etc. We were also able to use them for hogtying. Surprisingly one piece was enough to use for this. I believe it would be able to work for petite to average sized women and men with no issue. If more length is needed for any desired use simply tie the sash restraints together.

The sashes are quite strong and have not any obvious signs of wear and tear. We tried using them in their normal manner, along with excessive jerking, pulling and resistance. There were no noticeable signs of damage and only a few wrinkles that were easily straightened out. The durability of an item such as this goes a long way and it's nice to see that it can withstand a good bit of wear and tear.

My husband and I have been fairly pleased with the variety of uses the sashes have provided. They will be comfortably cradling some of our favorite toys so that when we next go for them, there will be a little extra incentive to spice things up a little.
    • Easy to put on / use
    • Comfortable during use
    • Holds up to use well

Care and Maintenance

The material is not listed anywhere on the package or the item itself, so washing instructions are not included. If you experience any "spills" during your activities, wiping with a warm cloth and allowing them to air dry appears to be the best option. If you decide to wash them in a washer, do so on a gentle cycle and allow them to air dry.

Storing them couldn't be simpler as they are easily folded and tucked away. They can be kept in the box provided if you wish, but they are easy to store anywhere. Keep them in your toy box, on or under the bed, in your closet or anywhere that you feel.
    • Easy to store

Packaging

A simple cardboard package is all that protects the sash restraints from the outside world, your curious hands and your lovers flesh. There is no set of instructions or examples. Just a plain box with a few blurbs about the product and images of it in use (with the standard " awkward Sportsheets models™ ").

The package contains no information on what the materials used are, what you should do to clean or care for the sashes or any useful tips and tricks for beginners. The box could be used for storage but it is easily damaged and the restraints are easy enough to store on their own, so you can do your part and recycle the box unless you find it absolutely necessary to keep.
    • Good for storage
    • Minimal
    • Recyclable

Personal comments

If you are wanting to bring some light BDSM into your relationship but your partner is not entirely enticed by the thought of being gagged with a sock (mmmm...), tied up with pantyhose (yum....) and restrained with an old t shirt or dress (sigh...) then perhaps bringing something like this into the bedroom would be beneficial.

The Silky Sash Restraints are a little more elegant than the above options and may appeal to someone who would find a romantic tryst involving roses, candlelight and some soft restraints more interesting. They are also a great option for anyone who just enjoys being tied up, no matter what they are using.

All around they are an excellent middle of the road multi purpose restraint set.
    • Basic
    • Beginner
    • Bondage
Follow-up commentary
The sash restraints have held up extremely well. With a good bit of wear and tear they are still going strong. I still recommend this for beginners looking to ease a partner into bondage and fantasy play. Although there are many more options available that could better suit your personal tastes and needs.
