    Anyone ever bought a full latex doll catsuit ?

    I'm talking about the head to toe one. It's really appealing to me and it's also obviously very expensive.

    Has anyone bought one or know someone who has ? Was it worth it ?

    I'm pretty sure I'd love the sensations and I'm looking for made to measure

    Tips for clubbing in latex

    Hi all!

    I have been reading all the possible posts about clubbing and latex in Reddit. On one hand it seems there are targeted latex/fetish night club events and, on the other, it seems it is discouraged because it will feel to hot to be in such humid environment on a closed garment. I recently bought my first piece, a bodysuit without sleeves and short pants and I am looking forward to the first night with it in a queer techno club in town. This club gets very humid and hot that even wearing cotton can feel very hot.

    My question for the experts is, how are latex club nights organised so people can wear even catsuits for hours and hours? Is because is a rather passive event?

    Have you done something like techno clubbing in latex? What tips could you share?

    Thanks a lot!

    Galaxy print latex?

    I remember seeing online galaxy themed latex, but for the life of me I can’t find any shops that make garments using this design, any ideas?

    I can find the prints https://www.latexrepair.nl/en/Galaxy-latex but no designers

    Best total enclosure suit

    Hi everyone,

    I have had many catsuits, but would love to buy a full enclosure suit that can be chlorinated, with attached hood,gloves and socks. I know everyone will say better to buy separately and I have it all separately, but really fancy one like that. Anyone got any brands that they would recommend?

    Quality of sheeting from kink projects

    I just received two pieces from kink projects, and not fully happy with the quality of the latex sheeting they use. Both are chlorinated, different colors, and different thicknesses. Neither are black or the standard 0.4mm thickness, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Both pieces are very dull in shine and don't take polish (yes, normal for chlorination, but not quite to this extent) and the smell is off, and has a more industrial rubber smell. A while back I got a chlorinated bed sheet from latex catfish, which I've heard are possibly the same people, and that sheet is more normal in feel and smell. Is all latex from kink projects like this or are the different colors and thicknesses I got the reason they're different?

    Undressing from Catsuit

    So I've recently bought a catsuit. I do run into a bit of an issue however.

    I have pretty broad shoulders and I'm not super flexible. While dressing is quite doable, undressing I struggle with.

    I don't have enough reach/flexibility to pull back my suit over my shoulders and undress with my arms inside out, as I usually see it done. I have to wiggle my arms out, which means stretching the "arm-hole" down to get my elbow through.

    Any ideas..?:)

    Is Oddia Good?

    I had recently seen mention of their store in a different post, so I decided to look at their site and had found a hood I'm interested in. That being said, seeing as this is the first time I've seen the store mentioned, I was curious about their quality. Anyone have any idea? Thanks!

    How do I fix this??

    I ordered these opera length latex gloves (from Mariemur) and they arrived with a small rip at the top of one of them. I’ve already contacted them and they said they’ve sold out, so they’re not able to send me a new pair but will give me store credit instead. Whatever. I just want to know if there’s a way to fix them so I can wear them without the rip being noticeable? I’ve seen videos of people patching latex rips with more latex but that’s not something I can just go buy in store and this is for a costume I’m wearing in two days. It’s also pretty small so I was wondering if there’s some kind of glue that would fix this?

    Straightjacked from Europe?

    Last year my Mistress found a cute latex straightjacket with open breats but now we cannot find it anywhere, I think it was from Stockrooms or something. Does anyone know a shop in Europe? It was very similar ro this one (which is not latex, sad sad). 🤔 We had it and now W/we dont..

    Wonder where to buy some of what Natallien's is wearing.

    Hi folks,

    I was wondering whether anyone knows which shop Natallien bought for her white catsuit with the vagina and condom. Anyone got any idea? Looks like a very good suit and wanted to get one for myself~ Thanks!

    First time going to a fetish event. Looking for advice.

    Hey everyone. I'm hoping to go to a fetish event for the first time and I was looking for some advice and tips on which events would be ideal for a newbie. I've heard of Torture Garden and Rubber Revolution, but not sure of any others.

    I'm aware of some of the rules that these events would have, such as consent and dress code. I'm planning to go in a full latex outfit, so dress code is not a problem. I'm based in the UK and can get to London quite easily, so any advice, things I should consider and any past experience you've had would be greatly appreciated 😊

    Is this how the nose is supposed to fit?

    Just got my first hood and im confused if this is fitting correctly. It feels incredibly tight on my nose, and it is pushing my nose up and to the right. This makes it so the inside of one of my nostrils flairs out and is visible from the nose hole (kinda visible in photo).

    I would say I have a slightly larger than average nose, but I provided photos and everything to the maker. Should I message them and send it back for fixing, is this how it is supposed to fit, or am I wearing it wrong?

    For those with the studiogum KMA inflatable mask, how easily can you see out of it?

    I've been going back and forth on ordering this mask for a long time, I'm curious if it's something I could realistically wear around the house for prolonged periods of time and still be able to get work done. For those that have it or have worn it before, is it something you could see out of enough to use a computer? How well could you speak out of it if you needed to?

    Upper arms restriction clothing

    Hello,

    I am looking for a clothing piece (preferably in latex) that restricts the upper arms to the body. Similar to how a tight pencil skirt restricts the legs together. I still want be able to move my arms but it should be met with resistance when the arms move further away from the body.

    Does anyone has an idea for existing clothing that achieves this?

    Making latex clothing

    Hi everyone! I’m trying to make a latex bandeau top. Have been doing research online for around a week from what I have gathered, I bought rubber cement for bonding and isopropyl alcohol to prepare the latex. I did a test today which seemed to work but upon testing the latex the seam came apart) I am wondering

    1. How long does it need to dry?
    2. Am I using the right adhesive / cleaning agent?
    3. Does it matter what side you glue?

    Thank you!

    Latex hood with Inflatable gag seeking

    My partner and I are looking to expand our new latex collection and have seen latex hoods with inflatable gags in pictures, these take our interest a lot. I was wondering if there is any sites that sell them as a combo, or is it something to buy seperately? I have found the combo on aliexpress and etsy, but are products from there good? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

    Latex socks/stockings with textured sole?

    So far, all latex stockings or latex socks I've seen have a smooth finish all around. But today I found online something different: stockings where the sole seems to have some anti-slip texture.

    What latex brand makes those?

    Where can we find more about this kind of product? I did a web search but found nothing but normal smooth latex items.

    Protection against long nails?

    Did you puncture your stuff often? Any ideas on how to approach this?

    For real long nails going fingerless and toeless would probably make sense, but I mean anything that isn't clipped toe and fingernails. Some "finger condoms" would probably work for opaque garments, but there are transparent ones too

    Zipper flying open

    Hello,

    Any tips on preventing the zipper off my catsuit from flying open? When I open up my crotch zipper a little, it tends to fly open completely (until the back), especially when my legs are spread apart. I had a Libidex catsuit which had less of a tendency to do this, but my two bright and shiny catsuits do this very easily. Any tips to keep the zip opened just enough?

    Thanks!

    How to fix this small hole

    Hi,

    today I've noticed a small hole in my catsuit. It's on the inside, right at the end of the crotch zipper as you can see on the photo. It's a catsuit with a split back zipper.

    https://preview.redd.it/ucaf3i7lz2wd1.jpg?width=1736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=55ab258578288fbb92b7499e52e86059272ee24e

    How can I fix it? Is it sufficient to just glue a small piece of latex over the hole?

    Thanks!

    Edit: Just to be clear if the photo doesn't really show it: The hole is in the piece that is the flap over the zipper and also is the reinforcement for the seam between the two zippers. Its right on the edge of the zipper itself, I guess thats the reason it happened in the first place.

    E-shop for Europe

    (I'm new to this.) Hey, my partner would like to put me in latex "catsuit"? Like full body except feet, hands and head. I would like some recommendations for eshops that ship from EU to EU (not British ones) so I can see what's in stock an have a good experience.

    I'm have a twink build which doesn't help when shopping for fetish gear. Also, what do you think is more practical? Latex catsuit or separate pieces (top+bottom).
