Each product has been individually scored in Design, Ease of Use, and Quality. Every product has also received a conclusive “Bedbible Rating”, alongside the “User Ratings” score (which represents the average consumer experience with that particular product). With so much information in the palm of your hand, we hope it will be very easy to find the best sex collar for you!
Types of Sexual Collars
Although most people just think of a leather collar as a sexual collar, there are actually a wide variety of options available (though you can certainly get a leather collar if you desire!). Here are a few of the most common variations you’ll see and the benefits they provide.
- Padded – Being padded, these collars are perfect for long-term wear. While your sub will be completely under your control, they won’t be suffering from a sharp collar digging into their neck!
- Posture – Unlike padded collars, posture collars aren’t built for comfort: they’re built to hold the sub’s head/neck in the perfect position! By restricting the neck’s movement, your sub will be forced to look straight ahead at all times.
- Lockable – If you’re worried about your sub “escaping” (or just want to add an extra layer of domination into the mix), using a lockable collar will ensure your sub can’t take it off without permission.
- With Leash – As the name implies, these collars simply come with an included leash. Popular in puppy and pony play, you’ll enjoy leading your sub around, basking in their shame.
- Harness – Incorporating the collar into a larger design, a harness not only has a grip around your sub’s neck but around their body as well!
- With Restraints – These collars use restraints in their design, often allowing you to restrain your sub’s hands behind their back (or in front of them) for your pleasure. Designs vary widely, so the restraints often extend beyond a hands-only approach!
- With Nipple Clamps – These collars come with chained nipple clamps attached, allowing you to enjoy a bit of nipple play in addition to dominance.
FAQ
What Is A Sex Collar
A sex collar is a choker-like accessory that is used usually in BDSM play, worn by the submissive as the ultimate power symbol between a sub and a dom. Generally, these collars are used to symbolize the progress a sub has made in their D/s relationship, but many people choose to wear them simply as a fashion statement. In addition to regular collars/chokers, many subs may wear more advanced collars that incorporate muzzles, leashes, clamps, or locks into their design.
