Why I Chose It
These clamps are going to be a great addition to your sex toy collection or even your wardrobe! Who doesn’t love a 2-in-1? Crafted to lay on the body delicately, everything from the weighted beads to the vibrant rose gold of the chains works to make these incredibly sexy. The clamps themselves are adjustable tweezer style nipple clamps and can be adjusted to meet your pinch expectation – whether you like a little nibble or harder grab, you decide.
Unfortunately, they are a little bit of a fiddle to get them placed and to stay on, yet this could be great of you wanted to use them with a partner, so sit back and let them do it for you! But our tester Is has a pro tip – “With the nipple clamps, a tiny bit of lube is helpful for sliding the clamps around your nipple.” Just make sure that you’re using a water-based lubricant, as the clamp covers are made from silicone.
The Fifty Shades Freed All Sensation Nipple and Clitoral Chain has some design flaws, namely that the stiffness of the chain and placement of the o-ring makes it difficult for people with fuller figures or larger breasts to wear it without pulling off the clamps. Despite using tweezer-style fastenings, they are narrow and don’t open enough for large nipples, and the slide ring has trouble catching enough to create an intense bite. But if they fit, and you don’t mind less pressure, this is a gorgeous set of weighted clamps. Gold, with beaded weights and extra-long clips, you will feel very sexy when strung up tit to clit. This clamp set will leave your nips and clit extra sensitive and ready for some more attention!

Our tester Edie passed this toy with flying colours – “the delicate design is simply gorgeous, complimented with a dangling heart and the comfort of soft, silicone tips.” Edie is an experienced tester herself, and even she found enjoyment out of such a small a toy! This clamp is one of my favourites, as it doesn’t have any chains attached to it, which makes it great to wear on your clit when masturbating – Edie agrees – “a light squeeze was rather pleasant and made masturbation far more interesting.”

Why I Chose It
I think the DOMINIX Deluxe Leather Collar with Clamps will be a great accessory for all BDSM enthusiasts! The leather collar provides a sexy, kinky feel, while the clamps provide this gentle, pleasing pinch and pull. When it comes to leather and metal accessories like this, I can sometimes be skeptical about the quality of the leather. But this thick collar is made of genuine leather and has a really nice look and feel to it. I also really like that there are multiple o-rings for attaching additional pieces and restraints.
Overall, this set looks very BDSM compared to the other sets in the roundup, so if you’re into the BDSM aesthetic, then this is the set for you. It also introduces more of a Sub/Dom dynamic instead of a clamp set that looks more decorative and feels more self empowering. It has multiple loops for attaching other chains or even a leash, which is great if you want to change it up and get creative. this collar offers a great quality product for a very affordable price. I do think that this particular piece would be the best for intermediate users, however, think that many advanced kinksters will appreciate the BDSM harness look!
Often clamp sets can be hit or miss, sometimes popping off or not staying on as long as you’d hope. Our tester commented on this, saying “Of course, the y pop off if you move too much but all clamps have this issue so it’s to be expected!” If you’re someone who loves a sharp pinch, then maybe the pop off will be the satisfying bit for you!

Individual Clit Clamps
Not everyone enjoys having their nipples played with. But they might still want some clips that focus on the clit itself. Luckily, there are many individual clit clamps available. In most cases, clit clamps are not made to produce pain in the way that their nipple counterparts are. They instead draw blood down to the bundle of nerves and leave the clitoris sensitive to touch.
Lovehoney Pinch Perfect Adjustable Clitoral Clamp
If you are looking for a beginner-friendly clip that can be adjusted for maximum sensation, you will love Loneyhoney’s Pinch Perfect Adjustable Clitoral Clamp. Using a soft silicone tip for comfortable wear, you can slide the hoop for any level of intensity you desire. This leaves you or your partner hands-free to focus on the rest of the body while bringing tingling bliss to your clit. The orgasms with this clamp are unreal.
DOMINIX Deluxe Magnetic Orb Clamp
A rare clamp that does focus on pain as the primary goal, these Deluxe Magnetic Orb Clamps by DOMINIX are serious business. Because of their design, they are multi-purpose and can be placed on the clit, nipples, frenulum, or scrotum. Any gender can enjoy them, though care has to be taken not to wear them for too long given how they cut off circulation. Masochists will love what these little orbs can accomplish.
Fifty Shades Darker Just Sensation Beaded Clitoral Clamp
Like so many products from the Fifty Shades line, this Fifty Shades Darker Just Sensation Beaded Clitoral Clamp brings a stylish twist to string-style clips. The application can be tricky until you get the hang of it, but with a dab of lubricant on the clip itself, you can slide it on for a tight fit. The pressure is minimal but just enough to give you that extra push toward a climax. Plus, it looks incredible, with a very sensual design that includes 15 grams of weighted pull for even more leg-shaking bliss.
No One Should Be Left Out...
Women aren’t the only ones who enjoy a good bite. Men can benefit from clamps. The general idea is the same, connecting the nipple clips to a larger o-ring held by a chain that operates as a cock ring. Not only will this improve orgasms, but it increases stamina. Who wouldn’t love longer lovemaking sessions with their partner?
Nipple Clamps/Cock Ring Set
The straightforward alligator-style nipple clamps from this nipple clamps and cock ring set make it the perfect introductory accessory for the pain-curious male. Attach the clamps, adjusting the dials to ramp up the pressure. Then slide the cock ring, which is 1 3/4″ diameter and dangling from a leather-covered chain. You can add lube to assist with sliding it on if it is a little tight. The chain is lightweight, but it would be easy to add weights from any of the three chain lengths.
Types of Nipple and Clit Clamps
When you’re searching for nipple and clit clamps, you’ll likely notice pretty fast that there are a few different variations offered.
To help you with your search, we’ve provided this quick overview of the differences between each type of clamp!
- Tweezer – This beginner-friendly type of clamp offers the least grip of any type of clamp, making them ideal for use as clit clamps (where it’s easy to overdo it!). They use a slide ring to adjust the grip on each clamp.
- Alligator – Generally offering a tight grip than tweezer clamps, alligator clamps are the perfect beginner to mid-level clamps. The design might look familiar (these are the type of clamps used on car batteries!). You can get a collar with clamps or clamps on a chain in the alligator style.
- Slide-to-Fit – “Slide-to-Fit” refers to the adjustment mechanism used by tweezer clamps to tighten the clamps. You place the ends of the clamps around your nipple/clit, and then slide the ring down the clamps to your preferred tightness, i.e. “slide-to-fit”!
- Pump – These versatile toys use suction to suck on whatever you place them over! While they won’t provide the “pinch” of a clamp, they provide an excellent alternative option for people with highly-sensitive nipples who still want to experiment with nipple play.
- Vibrating – These are exactly what you’d expect: clamps that vibrate! Vibrating clamps are most commonly offered as alligator clamps.
What's the Point of a Clit Clamp?
If you stumbled across this article and have no experience with clit clamps, you might be confused about what they are used for. A common misconception is that these handy little sex aids are only for the most extreme of kinksters, and have no place in non-BDSM-related scenarios. That couldn’t be further from the truth! Below, we will address the uses of clit clamps and how you can incorporate them into any type of bedroom play.
Pleasure
The main purpose behind clit clamps is to provide pleasure. Placed on either side of the clitoris, clips will draw blood to the groin and provide consistent pressure. Your swollen clit will love even gentle touches.
Control
Giving over control to a partner is exciting. Because they make light manipulation so intense, the wearer is trusting their partner with their pleasure. Such vulnerability is one reason clit clamps are so popular in the BDSM community.
Excitement
Clit clamps are visually appealing. Some are stylized with added beads and charms, while others focus on function over fashion. Regardless, there is something undeniable sexy about someone wearing one.
Punishment
As mentioned before, pain isn’t the main reason for clit clamps, even if nipple clips reliant on the pinch. That doesn’t mean they can’t be used this way. Anyone who enjoys pain can tighten them for a harder squeeze. For the adventurous, styles like orb, magnetic and clover clamps bring the pain to a whole new level.
