For a first timer or a well-seasoned bondage addict, Fantasy Bondage Tape meets the need of all. This tape is made of PVC and is safe for those with latex allergies. The roll is similar to duct tape in size and sound while unwinding, but it is not easy to tear. It can be used to tie up a partner, make a single use gag or blindfold, or create a sexy costume for the evening, but it is not recommended for suspension because it does stretch. I personally would not recommend it for reuse beyond a single session because of bacteria buildup, and it's a pain to straighten back out after it has been wound around a body part and been struggled with/stretched, but it isn't impossible and can be cleaned with soapy water.

When I received the tape in the mail, it was packaged in plastic with a cardboard backing; both are recyclable (brownie points). It was easy to open; only two staples held the package together. It looks like a regular roll of shiny colored tape, and it feels like a softer, flexible plastic without sharp edges. It beat the strength test. I couldn't stretch it enough to break free with it wound twice around my wrists. My man attempted the same feat and stretched it, but he couldn't break it without using his hands instead of his wrists. I suggested scissors.

It was easy to apply and to put on too tight, but it only required slight adjustments. For the most part, it stays put, but we are the human equation. Even when things started to heat up, the tape held. It was a little uncomfortable with the combination of sweat and the tape stretching, but it didn't give the tape or my skin any odor or sticky residue that other tapes have.
