If you've ever had fantasies about being tied up like a present for somebody, this is most definitely the ribbon for you. Black Rose Silky Surrender is a gorgeous 10 feet of smooth, cool-to-the-touch silky ribbon that can definitely hold its own in bondage situations.

The best part of this ribbon is...well, where do I start? The fact that you can do a ton with it, with a little creativity and bondage know-how; the fact that it feels marvellous against your skin; the fact that it isn't obviously a bondage toy and probably won't be recognised for what it is if you just leave it lying about the room (although leaving it tied to your headboard might be a different story); the fact that it doesn't need to be washed frequently at all, and when it does you can just soak it in the sink for a little while, maybe with a tiny bit of gentle detergent.

The one downside is that it is a little bit expensive and there's only one ribbon per box, so if you're looking to do a bit more full-body bondage or just, for example, wrists and ankles at the same time, you do have to buy more than one (or use a different set of restraints). However, this downside is relatively minimal considering the quality of the ribbon. Also, it does tend to retain wrinkles if you've been using it for complex knotting, but those can easily be smoothed out after washing or with an iron if you care to.

I can't speak to how durable the ribbon is or how much use it can take before it starts fraying or coming apart at the seams or becoming threadbare; that will have to wait for the follow up review. All in all, this is a really fun, lightweight restraint.
