How We Tested Breathable Ball Gags

The staff here at Bedbible all have one thing in common: our shared love for sex toys! There are many factors that can really influence your overall enjoyment of a product, such as the materials, dimensions, and the type of gag used. We consider these factors when providing it with a Bedbible rating. Rating on a “case-by-case” basis allows us to avoid any brand preferences. Opinions vary, so we also compile the user reviews from various shops to provide you with the general “User Rating”.

We often provide links to the same shops. These shops have consistently offered dependable, discreet delivery, great customer service, and genuine products for each order! Of course, there isn’t any substitute for real-world experience. While we haven’t personally tested every product, you’ll notice that some products will have a “Read full review” list. Click this to learn our tester’s thoughts on that particular product!

How We Tested Breathable Ball Gags

Breathable vs Regular Ball Gags

Breathable ball gags are designed with the complete beginner in mind, but that doesn’t mean they’re limited to only beginners! Essentially, a regular ball gag doesn’t have any holes in it like a wiffle ball gag would have, forcing the wearer to breathe through their nose to get oxygen. If you can easily breathe through your nose then this isn’t an issue, but what if you get sick and stuffy? In that case, a breathable ball gag would be perfect!

 

Breathable Ball Gag Materials

Many different materials are used in breathable ball gags, but silicone ball gags are the most common. Some other common materials used are plastic, metal, leather, and imitation leather. Which one you choose is mainly up to personal preference, but if you or your partner have allergies then you should make sure that the ball gag will be safe to use (eg. nickel-free metal). Beyond allergies, you’ll basically need to choose your preferred firmness. Most breathable ball gags are either soft or hard. Softer gags will allow you to close your mouth to an extent, whereas hard gags will prevent your jaw from closing at all.

 

Breathable Ball Gag Sizes

First things first: you need to be able to comfortably hold your mouth open with a ball gag with holes, so you don’t want to choose a ball gag that stretches your mouth to the max. While a silicone ball gag will generally have a bit of give, you should base your choice on measurements, not the assumption that you’ll be able to overcome the ball gag. For a rough idea of what size you should start with, simply take your hand, hold the fingers out straight (like with a karate chop), and see how many fingers you can comfortably fit. Measure the width of these fingers together and that will give you a rough idea of where to start. Note that this will give you the maximum “diameter”, NOT the circumference. If you want to convert diameter to circumference (or vice versa), click here.

 

No matter what type of ball gag you’re looking for, how much experience you have, and what your budget is, the perfect ball gag with holes is waiting for you on the list below!

FAQ

What type of ball gag is best for beginners?
If you're new to using a ball gag, it's best to opt for a smaller sized ball to get acclimatized to the feeling. You'll probably also be most comfortable with a breathable ball gag with holes rather than a solid ball.
What if the ball gag is too big?
If you find that even a small-sized gag feels too big and uncomfortable in your mouth, don't force it – it won't be pleasurable. There are other options to try, such as O-ring gags, bit gags and even an over-the-mouth gag like a bandana or necktie.
Should I use a breathable or solid ball gag?
Using a breathable vs a solid ball gag is totally up to your personal preference. If you want more freedom to breathe and are okay with slightly less noise muffling and much more drool escaping from your mouth, then go with a breathable variety.
How do you put on a ball gag?
The easiest way to put on a ball gag is to have your partner, or dom, do it for you. They should strap the gag on while communicating and agreeing on tightness and secureness. Once it's on, check whether you feel comfortable before starting any sexy times.
How can I use ball gags safely?
Check our safety tips above on how to use a ball gag in the best and safest way. The bottom line is: set and respect boundaries, make sure you're comfortable, and take breaks.
How do tell my partner I want to try a ball gag?
The key to trying out anything new in the bedroom is to communicate openly with each other, and make sure that you're both up for and enthusiastic about the idea. You could try bringing up the topic by mentioning an article you've read and sending them the link, or talking about something you've done recently that you want to take to the next level. Ask to talk about it together, rather than demanding anything up front.

What is a breathable ball gag?

A ball gag is probably the most commonly known type of sex gag. It's a ball that sits in the mouth, just behind the teeth, stopping them from speaking and muffling their moans as you pleasure tease and toy with them. They're usually part of a power-play scene where the submissive partner will wear a gag to restrict them. They are also a great tool for humiliation play and making your partner dribble and drool. Breathable types are ball gags with holes in them that allow the wearer to breathe through the mouth rather than just through the nose. They can be more comfortable for beginners than the solid types. Breathable ball gags come in a range of sizes, so if you are a beginner or have a small mouth, you'll want to look for a small ball size to get started.

The Bondage Boutique Breathable Ball Gag is our best in test, and it’s not hard to see why. It’s perfectly suited for both beginner and intermediate gag play, with a silicone ball that fills the mouth for that sensation of restriction without discomfort. The strap can be adjusted to ensure a snug fit for all shapes and sizes.

The silicone is easily biteable, and soft enough to avoid any soreness on the corners of your mouth. The ball itself has three bored holes that allow the wearer to breathe easy. Be ready for some messy fun, as the holes won’t dry your mouth out at all, meaning a lot of drool will be on the way. Good thing, then, that’s it’s super simple to clean.

At first glance, the Sex & Mischief Breathable Ball Gag looks a little different to most of the others on this list. Rather than the softer silicone ball gags we’ve featured here, this one has a hard plastic ball that provides more resistance to the teeth and mouth. If that sounds like a turn on to you, then read on.

The strap is made of vegan-friendly faux leather for that classic sexy look and features an adjustable buckle fastening. The hollow ball has a lot of holes that aerate it considerably, making it a good starting point for first-timers who may be a little intimidated by the prospect of bondage.

Conclusion

If you’re a little on the fence about giving ball gags a go, it’s also the most reasonably-priced product included in this review, so you won’t be shelling out for something that’s more of an investment.

However, that also means that you get what you pay for in terms of quality and construction. This wiffle ball gag may be less sturdy than a more expensive model, and the faux leather strap that holds the ball in place may cause pain in the corners of the mouth if worn for longer lengths of time.

Some reviewers have also noted that it is designed for those with larger heads and mouths, so it might need some homemade adjustments to fit more snugly for more petite sizes.

The Stockroom Breathable Ball Gag has been designed by experts in the business of kink and fetish gear, and it shows. Both the ball and the strap of this gag are crafted from soft, supple silicone that is comfortable to wear whilst still providing that satisfying sensation of restriction.

The strap of this gag is adjustable and features a lockable fastening. It can fit heads from 14 inches in circumference, making it great for smaller-sized people, though the ball is a tad bigger than others on the market for a fuller feeling in the mouth. Its three bored holes mean that it’s breathable and very easy to clean.

If you’ve had some experience with bondage and BDSM play, you might be looking for something a little more spicy than a simple ball gag. Enter: the DOMINIX Deluxe Breathable Ball Gag with attached nipple clamps.

This breathable gag combines comfort with restraint – the silicone ball is soft and biteable while the adjustable nipple clamps provide an extra level of pleasure. The chains are designed to pull slightly when you move, creating titillating sensations especially during rougher sex.

If you want to take it even further, use the O-rings on either side of the gag to attach your choice of restraints, chains or leads to totally customize your experience.

This breathable gag from DOMINIX Deluxe is great for those who want to take a foray into simultaneous sensations without sacrificing comfort.

Of course, the nature of the chains that attach to the nipple clamps mean that they may not work for all body shapes and sizes. Some users also have reported that they are also a little on the light side, so those looking for a more aggressive pinch may find themselves slightly disappointed.

This piece of equipment is also on the expensive end of the scale, though this is reflected in its quality and design.

This O-ring gag from DOMINIX Deluxe will take your BDSM play to the next level. Rather than the traditional ball gag, this accessory is fitted with a smaller-sized silicone ring that fits just inside the mouth to keep it open.

The silicone bit is designed to be rigid whilst still gentle on the teeth, so you can relax and experience all the right sensations. For tight restriction without discomfort, the silicone strap is adjustable and slightly stretchy.

For some seriously kinky foreplay, try experimenting with oral play whilst wearing the O-ring gag. To get even more in the mood, you can attach your choice of restraints, chains or leads and fulfil all of your power play fantasies.

The DOMINIX Deluxe O-ring gag is ideal for those taking the plunge into O-ring gags for the first time. It’s solidly made, yet smaller and more comfortable than others on the market.

However, despite its tempting uses as an accompaniment to oral sex, the O-ring’s smaller size means that some more well-endowed users may find it too small to fit through comfortably.

It has a smaller ball than most at only 1.5 inches (3.8cm) which can fit well in more petite mouths, filling the mouth whilst the three bored holes still allowing for easy breathing.

The imitation leather strap is lightweight and adjustable to fit most head sizes, and the metal buckle has a small ring to which a padlock can be attached to lock it into place.

The Sportsheets Saffron breathable ball gag is a great option for those seeking comfort, and more comfort means you can continue your erotic sessions for longer and reach new heights of tantalization.

Conclusion

The Sportsheets Saffron breathable ball gag is a great all-rounder, and a perfect solution if you’ve been disappointed by the size of other ball gags in the past.

Although it is smaller than many other ball gags, some users have reported that the strap still may come up a little big around the circumference of the head – something to keep in mind if you have a very small head size.

The Scandal Stopper O-Ring Gag truly combines the best of both worlds. The rigid silicone O-ring will keep your lips apart for the sensation of restraint that you crave, but the feeling can be easily switched up by inserting the stopper plug into the ring. The silicone strap is softer than other leather models and fully adjustable.

This gag blends kink with comfort to create the ultimate fetish fun. Try using it by alternating between oral play, either with a penis or a toy and to create some electrifying foreplay.

Conclusion

The lip-shaped O-ring on the Scandal Stopper Gag is the perfect indication of just how dirty and sexy this gag can make you feel. It’s simply designed with pleasure in mind.

Like other O-ring gags, it may be too small for those with larger penises to comfortably enjoy oral sex. Another thing to be aware of is that this gag is only breathable when the stopper is removed, so remember to always play safely and with awareness of your partner.
