Toy Tuesday Review: Pipedream Hogtie

Hi guys! Another week, another Toy Tuesday. Since this section premiered over a year ago, I've written about numerous kinds of sex aids and reviewed a lot of them specifically. After a certain point, the toys I write about fall under categories you've already read about, so in order to avoid repetition, I'm starting Toy Tuesday Reviews. I will skip explaining what the toys are and go straight to the product itself. These reviews will cover my experience with the kind of toy in general, but will also focus on the particular product itself. For those of you who tune in to learn about items that you'd like to use or if you're just here out of morbid curiosity (you closeted freak, you), don't worry chicklets, luckily for you, the sex industry is constantly growing and renovating itself. New lessons will continue to pop up on your feed and on this blog every week. Now that that's cleared up, welcome to Toy Tuesday Review.
Here goes:



A kind of restraint/harness, hogties are meant to restrain a person's arms and legs, and is very popular among the BDSM community. Hogties come in a variety of styles, including rope, ties, and tape, it just depends on how creative you want to get. However, the following ratings are based upon cuffed hogties, specially made for this position, like the one shown above.

Difficulty to use:
It's pretty standard stuff. If you've used hand/ankle cuffs, you know what to do. The longer straps are meant for ankles and the shorter cuffs are meant for wrists.

Versatility:
Materials can vary between plastic, leather, fabric, etc, but the basic design is pretty much the same thing.

My Rating:
Aesthetically speaking, Pipedream's hogtie is ideal.The tortoise-shell pattern on the straps and the gold clips/links make the product look very appealing and high quality. The cuffs are easy to use and so comfortable. That being said, it loses points on practicality. The links that enable the cuffs to be clipped onto the rest of the harness are not very resistant, and we broke two after the first use. If Pipedream fixes this issue and provides more durable straps, It'll move up to a five star rating. However, I would definitely give using a hogtie, in general, a five. I thought it would be uncomfortable but it gives you something to grip while getting fucked from behind. I don't suggest using it the whole time though, your legs get a little sore after a while.

His Rating:
He gave the idea of using a hogtie a 5, but the product itself a 3, since the straps broke after the first use. I averaged out the ratings to give it a 4.

For more tips on how to properly hogtie someone, this site does a good job on step by step instructions.

And here are some gratuitous images of some people being hogtied (there's some love for my male lovers, too)
