ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve Review
My Verdict
The ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve is a good sleeve for the endowed clitoris owners looking to get their stroke on. You don't even need significant growth to use this toy, it's on the smaller side compared to other strokers and suction toys well enough that size doesn't matter as much here. The ShotPocket is made of high-quality platinum cure silicone and holds a ribbed core for all your textured pleasure. Not only that, but it has a very basic design, which adds to its gender neutrality and is a great, subtle, budget-friendly option for folks looking to get into pleasure sleeve toys. No frills, no long-winded preparation, just pop in some water-based lube and you're good to go!

Personal Experience
A Toy of Quality?
Opening the package, there are so many little plastic bags for everything. I was bummed as someone who strives to be environmentally mindful. Not to also be a stickler but I really wish some toy companies used more flair in their presentation, like how the ROMP Jazz had stickers and the Wet For Her Rainbow Strap-On Dildo had a branded better-quality toy bag. Those little touches can really make or break a toy experience for me. I have now reviewed the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve as well as the PeenPocket Pleasure Sleeve, both made by FTM Pitstop. Personally, I don’t like the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve as much as the PeenPocket, because the ShotPocket silicone is so thin and easy to rip. Maybe that’s just because of the one ShotPocket I received! But honestly, I really struggle with the fact that mine tore so quickly and that there’s dents in the silicone. While Tenga Eggs are made of elastomer, and not silicone, I think they’re sturdier than the ShotPocket and less prone to tearing. Maybe that’s just me and my experience though!Minimalism for Neutral-Lovers
The ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve is an affordable option for folks wanting to give a suction-based stroker a try, as it’s half the cost of the PeenPocket. My own personal gripes aside, what you receive is a small blue silicone cylinder with a ribbed core. It’s flexible and easy to flip inside out for cleaning, just be careful to limit rips and tears. It’s pleasurable and easy enough to use, though maybe moreso for foreplay. The ShotPocket was easier for me to use solo than the PeenPocket, but still not the best due to my own wrist mobility issues. While it may not be a toy I recommend to a lot of folks, it’s still a perfectly fine one that I’m happy to let others know about as a potential option. This is the most basic of basic a stroker can get and may be the exact toy someone could be looking for.Design
The ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve is not the most impressive toy, and I really wish there had been more color or texture options. However, when in use, the design of the ribs was more noticeable and pleasurable than I thought it'd be! You can't knock that minimalism, it makes the toy more universal and gender neutral, which I can appreciate.
Ease of Use
While the design is simple and the concept is easy, there is still a bit of a learning curve with the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve. Finding the right angle for suction can be a bit difficult, especially if you have a bush of pubic hair. Hair can prevent a good amount of suction or could pinch! In such a sensitive area, it may be easier to trim or shave for a toy like this. But, then again, maybe that wouldn't be an issue for other folks and they found another way to use this sleeve with ease!
Quality
I love that the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve is made of silicone, especially compared to many stroker toys that are made of elastomer. This sleeve is reusable, easy to clean, and easy to use. I will admit, I was disappointed by the general quality of the toy. The silicone itself is thin and after a few light uses has torn slightly at the seams and even chipped near the opening. The way that the silicone solidified, there's also a dent in the opening that furthers the idea that the quality isn't great. On top of it all, the toy bag that this sleeve comes with is fraying and feels cheap.
Price
The ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve is an affordable option for those looking to get a reusable stroker. While it may not be the best quality, and the packaging is lacking (by my standards), you are getting what you pay for! It's a solid toy, no frills, no special features. Just a simple, blue, stroker and a small toy bag. For many, this is a fine budget-friendly option.
Performance
When it comes to performance, the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve was perfectly fine. After some finagleing, I was able to gather a good bit of suction to be able to use it comfortably. I love that it can be used solo as well as with a partner (which can be great for folks like me who may have trouble with wrist and hand mobility). While it brings a good amount of pleasure and is an interesting, new feeling, especially as I consider myself a beginner sleeve-user, I needed to use additional toys in order to reach a climax. Plus, it did pinch and pull at my pubic hair. This isn't a deal-breaker, though for some it could be.
Packaging
If you've read my other reviews, you know that I really love packaging and presentation for sex toys. Unfortunately, because I was disappointed by the quality of the toy, I was especially bummed about the packaging. The ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve arrived in a clear plastic bag, more saranwrap-esque than anything, with a very basic barcode sticker on it. Inside the bag was a piece of paper describing the toy, how to use it, and how to clean it, and a toy bag. The toy itself was in another, smaller plastic "bag" as well. While I appreciate the informational paper, I certainly wasn't wowed by this packaging.
Materials and care
With the ShotPocket Pleasure Sleeve being made of platinum cured silicone, it is body-safe and non-porous. I really appreciate this! It makes the toy reusable, soft to the touch, and easy to use with water-based lube. This sleeve is also waterproof and easy to clean as well. Just use water-based lube and clean it with warm water and soap. With the silicone being so squishy, feel free to turn it inside out to be able to thoroughly clean all of the bits and pieces! It's nice that it comes with a toy bag as well to keep it safe, clean, and with minimal lint (especially since it's a lint magnet)!
