The California Exotics Collar and Cuffs from the Tantric Binding Love collection is an adorable three piece bondage set. I know “bondage set” and “adorable” don’t exactly sound like a match made in a sex toy store, but trust me, I know cute when I see it!
The set consists of two elastic cuffs with sewn on D-rings and clips, and an elastic collar with a vertical extension designed to be worn in the back of the collar from neck to waist. The collar is 1.5” wide and 17” in length, but using the Velcro, this could extend to fit a much larger neck.
The 21” long extension is 2” wide and conveniently provides two D-rings for attaching the wrist cuff clips. A loop sewn in to the top end of this strap allows for sliding it on and off of the collar. That flexibility means that all of these pieces can be used with other bondage pieces, together or separately. This where the CUTE comes in: Both cuffs and the back strap are adorned with red satin bows, and the D-rings are shaped like hearts!
The heavy elastic wrist cuffs are 61/2” in circumference, and this could definitely be a tight fit for some. They easily slip on my wrists, which are rather small, but they are definitely snug. These are stretch-to-fit and there is no way to adjust the size, as they are stitched together. The inside seam can be a little rough, but is easily remedied with an emery board. Just file off any rough edges.
The back strap can be worn in the front, but this allows for a wide range of movement, unlike when hands are clipped to the strap in the back. This is best used for light bondage, because any way you wear it, it’s easily escapable. Even with my hands clipped behind me to the long strap at my waist, I was able to reach up and unhook the collar.
This is a darling ‘beginner bondage’ set with tight cuffs, and an adjustable collar. The bows and 
backstrap add to the visual allure of seeing your lover tied up. Even though the bows are very feminine, don’t think of this as just for girls only. I can imagine that there are plenty of dommes who would love to see their boys in this, too!
Thanks to California Exotics, who provided us this toy at no cost in exchange for an honest review.
