The Dragon Silk Wrist Restraints by Leatherbeaten are amazing. They are well-made for restricting the movement of the wrists, and they look beautiful too. I was very excited when I made my order for these restraints, because I was sure I would love them.

The inside of these restraints is a nicely finished suede. It is very comfortable against your skin. The outside is a beautiful black silk with silk embroidered dragons across it. There is a leather strap down the center that is held in by smooth metal studs. The connection to secure the restraint is a buckle. There are many, multiple holes down the leather strap that allows you to be able to adjust these restraints to fit almost anyone. The Dragon Silk Wrist Restraints can also be used as an impromptu collar, due to their adjustability! Simply attach them together, and there you are, a beautiful, two-ringed collar, which can lead to all sorts of fun and pleasure.

The restraints are about thirteen inches long, and the width is about two inches. Combined, both restraints weigh less than half a pound. In the center of the restraints is a d-ring that is used for a tether or other form of tying down.

These restraints performed wonderfully for me. The restraints held in place well, and they showed no sign of the metal studs coming out or the leather tearing. I could very well wear these restraints for long periods of time and be comfortable; in fact, I have. The restraints are soft, plush, and easy to wear.

The only real con to these restraints is the plain buckle. Buckles can be a pain to latch and to unlatch. If they did not use the buckle though, the restraints wouldn't be as adjustable as they are. So it is appropriate to say that they chose the right type of closure device for these particular restraints.

I would be very careful with these restraints. Any lube that might get on them, or oil, may ruin the silk. A damp rag would be the best thing to use to clean any dirt that might get on it. The best idea with these restraints is to just not get them dirty. I store mine in a small box container, and I only fold the leather strap one time. Also, you do not want to leave them laying out in the sun because the silk and the leather may fade.

The packaging was a clear bag that had a card inside of it stating the name of the restraints. I was slightly surprised at this, I figured the packaging would be a bit more extravagant, but Leatherbeaten seems to cut down on packaging to be able to sell high quality products at a lower price. It makes a lot of sense to me.

This was the first time I ever let my boyfriend properly tie me down. He seemed to enjoy it. The restraints were comfortable for me to wear in almost any position. Since the restraints are plush and soft, I didn't bruise my wrists or cut my wrists when I tugged against them, which is a major bonus for me. They are really beautiful, great restraints and we are both very happy to have them. I'm looking into ordering the ankle restraints as well!

I wear these restraints proudly. I'll often wear them while I'm out and about with my Herringbone collar, without shame.

I took these to one of my medieval events to get a second opinion. The gentleman who deals with restraints there were very impressed by these cuffs. He mentioned that silk only gets stronger when it is wet. He said there was little concern with the construction or material that was used.


I still love them.
