This is a great set of leather cuffs. I've used different types before in bondage scenes, and they've been okay. They are very comfortable and easy to use. They simply buckle-closed, and they are great for beginners because they do not lock which is good in case someone gets uncomfortable during a scene. They are very aesthetically pleasing as well. The little hearts around them add a personal feel to them in comparison to the normal plain black leather cuffs.

The rings on them work very well as attachment points and have yet to cause any damage with a significant amount of rough play. The fact that they are made of leather makes rough play easier because we aren't always checking on the amount of strain we put on them. They can take a lot. We use this in addition to more bondage with either rope or spreader bars. The rings work as attachments for both types of play.

One of the disadvantages (for my partner) or advantages (for me) is that they are very easy to break out of as you just unbuckle them. This adds a lot of laughter and fun (and a slight challenge for him to keep me restrained). I am also quite fond of simply wearing them around the apartment because of how comfortable they are. This comfort is also a huge advantage to metal hand or ankle cuffs because there is no chaffing or pain from how they rub on your wrists/ankles. They are real leather, and therefore, they smell very good in my opinion.

They are also easy to keep clean. Simply wipe them down with a damp and then dry cloth after play and they are as good as new. I can't wait to continue to play with them until I wear them out and then will probably buy the exact same pair again.
