I have issues. No, seriously, I have issues. I have a lot of glass, metal, stone, ceramic and wood toys that need to be stored in pouches so as not to break, scratch or chip them. Unfortunately, nearly everything comes with either a)no pouch, b)a satiny pouch or c)a hugely padded pouch. Satin pouches are pretty but they don't do much to protect my toys. And those hugely padded pouches? They never close all the way, I've had two drawstrings break and I always feel like I'm shoving my toys up the ass of a stuffed animal. They're too big, they take up too much room and they come in the ugliest colors.

So what's a girl to do?

Buy an EF toy pouch, that's what.

And so I did.

The pouches are 10.5 inches long by nearly 5 inches wide so they're plenty big to hold nearly any toy or a few small toys if you don't need to worry about them touching. The exterior is velvety (mine is purple) with a hot pink satiny interior. They are not padded like those stuffed animal-like pouches but they are much thicker than any other velvet or satin bag I have. Lightly padded, I would have to say, the padding created by the layers of material rather than a wad of batting inside.

The drawstrings are corded, reminding me of drapery tie backs. A very nice touch and much more durable and easy to use than any satin ties or nylon cord I've come across before. They can be pulled tight to cinch or you can actually tie them in a loose knot. Even unknotted they hold tight, keeping the bag closed even if you tip it upside down and shake it.

Heaven!

The design on the exterior of these bags is the pink and purple Eden Fantasys logo, complete with apple "e", done up in rhinestones and nail heads. It's tasteful, not at all gaudy, and seems durable, as well. I've yet to have a stone fall off.

The interior of the bag is very well done; no rough edges or bad seams, even if you turn it inside out to really look at it. It is a bit hard to get silicone toys into them as the satin and silicone stick together but hard, slick toys slide right in.

Clean these bags, if you need to, by hand washing and letting air dry. I can't imagine the design would hold up well to machine washing or drying.

The only bad thing I have to say about the bags is I wish they came in more colors so I could color coordinate my sex toys. But, yanno, that's not much of a complaint, is it?

I am amazed by how well these bags are holding up. The cords still look shiny, the bag is not the least bit worn, it has absolutely no signs of wear and tear at all.

While not the most thickly padded bag around, these are my favorite, hands down. And I've got a LOT of drawstring bags!
