Keith Lemaitre reviews a selection of deviously effective instructional tools from the Stockroom.
The education of a submissive can be one of the most critical periods in any Dom-sub relationship. There’s simply no substitute for good training. That said, providing proper instruction is never easy. Thankfully, the Stockroom offers thousands of specialized learning tools that will help you to keep your submissives actively engaged in their lessons.
JT SIGNATURE COLLECTION COLLAR • $69
Made in house by the Stockroom, this signature item will fill your submissive with pride. Luxurious and finely appointed, the collar’s burgundy-colored leather and gold-plated locking buckle and D-ring show that you have exquisite taste, that you value quality, and that you take good care of your possessions. Comes in S/M or M/L and features a black glove leather lining. If you like the burgundy leather and gold plating, there are also matching wrist restraints, ankle restraints, thigh cuffs, and a waist cuff available.
LOVE HURTS HEART PADDLE • $80
Little things mean a lot, so consider making each training session more memorable by leaving your mark on your submissive. One swift strike is all it takes to effectively communicate your message with this whimsical paddle made of red anodized aluminum. The heart cutout allows air to pass through so that you can add more momentum to your swing. One well placed smack will leave a distinctive red heart on their bottom. Sometimes words aren’t enough to convince a submissive that you still find them useful. When they have those inevitably dark moments of self-doubt, leaving your mark can show them that you still care.
IMPRESSIONS PADDLE – BITCH • $32
For those moments when you feel the need to be more harsh, you’ll appreciate this unique paddle which imprints the word BITCH on your submissive’s ass. The leather paddle has a nice, stinging bite which is ideal for putting someone in their place. The paddle is made of high quality Latigo leather and features a light but rigid structure. A loop of nylon on the handle allows it to be easily hung.
ANTIQUE IRON HANDCUFFS • $29
If you prefer a more rustic style with a touch of medieval charm, you’ll enjoy these authentically styled, old fashioned bonds. They’re reproductions of 19th century Darby-style cuffs and they weigh a full pound. They can be locked and unlocked using the included key.
STAINLESS STEEL RIGHT ANGLE CUFFS • $183
If normal cuffs aren’t quite restrictive enough, you might want to consider upgrading to these right angle cuffs. They’re welded together at right angles, which puts both wrists at a comfortable but more confining angle either in front of or behind the body. The highly polished finish has a futuristic look and the heavy steel is truly secure. They weigh in at 2.4 lbs.
SEX AND METAL HAND TRAP • $170
The element of surprise can be hard to maintain in the long term. Introducing something unusual and even intimidating now and then can often be just what you need to keep things fresh. These unique hand and finger bondage restraints restrict the movement of each finger individually, in addition to confining the wrist and hand as a whole. Visually interesting and deviously effective, these are certain to keep your submissive guessing. Available in candy apple red or clear-coated silver.
MYSTIM ELECTRIC ERIC • $170
The electric Eric provides both vibration and electrical stimulation in one wireless device that doesn’t requires any other equipment to operate. It recharges using a snap-on, magnetic charging cable and features two vibrators (one in the shaft and one in the tip) that offer eight modes and five intensity levels. A conductive strip running the length of both sides provides the electrical stimulation, with five modes and ten intensity levels. The vibration and electrical stimulation can be used independently or simultaneously.
RUBBER BALL GAG WITH BUCKLING STRAP • $42
Classic dungeon standbys like ball gags don’t have to be boring. Made with durable rubber straps, machine stitching, and metal studs, these rubber gags feature balls that come in six different colors.
LE SLAVE DELUXE COCK RING • $36
Like any good cock ring, this model does a good job of restricting blood flow and helping to maintain a powerful erection. In addition, it features a beautiful steel design with an integrated O-ring that can be used to attach a leash, chain, rope, etc. The O-ring is perfect for training new submissives who may occasionally get carried away. Just a gentle tug on a leash attached to a submissive’s cock ring can sometimes be all that is required to get their attention and remind them who’s in charge.
