I want to start by saying that I have been through many collars. The first was too cheaply made to be good for anything. Others have been great for the rough sex play, but too thick or uncomfortable in some way to prevent me from wearing them out in public very often. I have been on a long search for the perfect collar. One that would hold up to the rough play, but also be simple enough to wear in public without too much notice. This has been tougher than you might think, but I am happy to say that the search is finally over!

This collar is PERFECT, in every way. It is well made and durable, holds up to strenuous use, and is nice enough to wear out with almost any outfit, without it looking out of place or drawing too much attention.

Indeed, you could pass this off as a nice choker, with no one knowing the real reason you are wearing it.

This collar is made with top quality leather. It is smooth and soft and the most comfortable collar I have ever put on. I have the large size and it fits me very well, with lots of room to spare. It is hard at times to find dainty collars to fit someone who is on the larger side. I usually end up with a very thick "manly" collar, because the ones made with females in mind are always too small. The only problem I have is that it really is a generous length, so it leaves more of the strap hanging out than I would like. It needs a little metal slide like some belts have to keep the extra length in place. I will be looking into getting one from a friend of mine who works in leather.

The buckle on the back is great too. The design makes it possible to keep it exactly in the middle, no matter how tight or loose you make it, instead off to the side like some of the others I own.

This product has everything I have ever looked for in a collar. The leather is very smooth and supple. In fact, I have never felt leather this nice on any thing other than expensive shoes or bags. Certainly not on any of the sex toys or restraints that I have seen. The design is functional and simple, but still very attractive. This is my first Leatherbeaten product, and I am hooked! I can't wait to get more of their other products!

I use Saddle Soap on all of my leather because it uses less chemicals than many other leather cleaners. I have been wearing it a lot, so I haven't had any need to store it. I take it off and sit it on my dresser, so it will be there when I need it.
