I'm partial to the Cowboy line for it's amazing softness to the touch.

The softer-textured ones feel really nice. The slick ones make sense for their purposes, but like when applying lube to the (sleek and slick) Silks, it tends to not stay on as well as it would with the unslick surfaces.

I prefer a matte surface. I find they don't attract as much lint, and that lube doesn't drip off as much as it does on the shiny toys.

But out of the 5 Tantus toys I've tried, the only one that had a matte finish was an 02 dildo.

I've tried a bunch! The VIP/Boss, Buck, Cowboy, the Omega (and Delta and Theta and Pi), and then of course the O2 stuff all have the matte surface.

This may sound like an odd question, but does the matte vs. slick texture make a difference to you in choosing a lube?

Just curious.

I like the more matte texture personally. The Boss (VIP) is a major favorite!

I love Tantus, period, but when it comes to textures, I do prefer a matte surface. Not only does it hold onto lube better, but it just feels better overall.
I used to be a bigger fan of the glossy silicone, but I can't help but feel like it's "squeaking" in and out of my butt as I use it... Matte toys are more natural feeling to me. (Especially the lovely O2 specimens!)

I prefer the shiny ones, but velvety is nice when it's on the O2 material.
