These cock ties are meant to hold blood in the penis and balls to keep the penis harder for longer. Ideally, men who have problems staying erect or keeping an erection will benefit from these ties. My man has no problems with this however, so I can not attest to how they would work for some one who has erectile dysfunction. I CAN say that his cock stayed ROCK hard the whole time he was wearing one of these, and we both loved it.

The reason I picked these is not that I had any issues with the hardness or size of my man's cock, but rather his balls. I know that may sound odd, but I really want to feel his balls while we have sex. The problem is, he has smaller and tighter balls than I am used to. He has no embarrassment about his balls at all, in fact is proud of them! He loves that they are nice and tight and don't sag like most men's do. I love them too, as much as I love every other part of his body, it's just that I don't feel them when we have sex. This isn't something I thought I cared that much about, until it was missing. Anyway, my point is I wanted something that would maybe make his balls feel bigger or at least pull them up and out more so that I could feel them during sex. We had looked at other cock rings, but he is a little wary of trying to fit his whole package into such a small ring. We thought getting something adjustable would be easier for us beginners to try. The thing is, every adjustable cock and ball harness we tried wouldn't stay on. I don't know if it is because his balls are just too tight, but I couldn't seem to get anything to wrap around his balls and stay there! I saw these rubber ones and thought that maybe these would be tight enough to stay put. We were excited to see that not only were they easy to use, but they did in fact stay on. Once on, his cock was hard and his balls were noticeably plumper and I was able to feel them very nicely during sex.

These cock ties are made of rubber tubes, one black, one red. The rubber does have a smell to it, but it is not overwhelming and I can only notice it if I have my nose right on them taking a big whiff. There is no strong taste either, so there is no fear of using these during oral. The beads that are used to adjust them are made of plastic. The red tie has blacks beads and the black tie has red beads. There are four beads on each tie. The three used together, slide up or down making the loop that is wrapped around your cock and/or balls smaller and tighter, or bigger and thus looser. The fourth bead is at the top of the loop and my guess is that it is there to aide in keeping it in place, especially when using lube. It can also aide in stimulation, though we didn't seem to notice it during use.

The rubber tubes that make up these ties are thin, smooth, seamless, and stretchy. They kind of remind me of rubber bands, but softer and smoother. They have a good stretch to them, but I would be afraid to stretch these to the limits as I imagine them snapping like rubber bands and on the sensitive parts of my man. All I can think is "OUCH". Rubber can also make it easy to get pubic hair caught so to avoid this as much as possible, we used lube to keep it slick. Don't use too much however, or you could find these ties slipping off.

I really like the simple design for these. They aren't the sexiest things in the world, but they do the job for us, where so many others didn't. The generous length of the ties should allow even the biggest men to use these comfortably. You could always trim the rubber a bit if you find that the length gets in the way, but it doesn't bother us. Putting these on can be hard depending on how hairy the man is down there, but we found it really easy to adjust and they went on quickly and came off even quicker. As for comfort, it is as comfortable as you make it. However, the point being to keep the blood in the penis, you need to wear these quite tight. That being said, you can only wear these safely for up to thirty minutes at a time.

Rubber is porous so it can not be sterilized. The problem this causes is the potential for bacteria to be spread to your vagina if it touches you during sex. That being said, if you take care to keep these ties clean and clean them before and after sex, contamination should be minimal. I use liquid antibacterial hand soap and allow all the parts to air dry separately before placing in a zip top plastic baggy for storage.
