KinkLab's Leather Hog Tie is exactly what the title suggests. It's your basic hog tie, and it's made of leather...amazing concept, right? Jokes aside, it's a solid piece that will stand up to years of abuse, but it is also beginner friendly. As long as you are OK with it not being a vegan product (and don't dislike the color red), there really isn't a downside to the hog tie.

The KinkLab Hog Tie is uncomplicated and well made. It is made from red leather and metal and is pleasing to the eye. It smells like leather, which isn't a negative in my book, and is very sturdy. I've had mine for around a year, and it looks the sames as when I got it. It should last for a very long time as long as you use it as it's meant to be used. The back of the hog tie is the underside of the leather, which makes it look a little utilitarian but doesn't take away from the function of the toy.



I'd say this product would be appropriate for newbies or more experienced players. It is average in size. Each section is approximately 3 inches in length and is permanently affixed in place with metal. According to the package, the toy is 12 inches from tip to tip. It's not adjustable, but it should work for most users. Also, if it was made to be adjustable, there would be more of a chance for them to come undone with more rigorous use.

This hog tie does exactly what it says it will do and does it well. I vastly prefer these to the Velcro/Nylon ones that have more give to them and break down faster. As I've said previously, I've had this hog tie for quite a while, and it's still as sturdy as when I got it. I will probably end up getting a new one, but only because I'm not a huge fan of bright red, not because there is anything wrong with the hog tie. KinkLab also makes this in black and pink, I believe, if red isn't for you (sadly, it's discontinued on Eden). It takes longer to untie than the SportSheets style cuffs, so it may appeal more to intermediate to advanced users, although it's not complicated, so it can be used by novices.

Leather is fairly easy to care for. A damp cloth can typically take care of it, although a tiny bit of gentle soap may be needed now and again. If you are a leather fan, you can also clean/maintain it with leather cleaner. The container it came in is good for storage, although you can get away with putting it in with other BDSM toys of a compatible nature.

Like most of their toys, the KinkLab Hog Tie comes in a plastic, tube-like container that is reusable. It's probably one of the only toys in my collection that I have kept the container for, since it's not bulky like most are. As you can see, it also has an illustration of how to use a hog tie and some facts in nice bold letters. It also informs you that this hog tie is "Quick & Easy" and provides "Instant Submission." You can't go wrong there.
