BDSM Collar - Slave & Submissive Collars
A collar is essential for kinky couples and holds special meaning for their partnership. It represents the symbol of devotion, effort, and loyalty. Putting it on and off should not be taken lightly because it's not just a simple necklace. Wearing a slave collar means you are marked as a submissive in the BDSM relationship. So, when the dominant partner gives you one, you become their slave. Once you are collared, you must serve and obey your dom. Your only task is to listen and keep them pleased.
Historically, bondage collars were thick bands of black leather or PVC has worn tight to the neck, choker style, with a large D or O ring to the front. They often were secured with a lock and were only removed by the dominant party of the relationship. Today, BDSM collars range from the traditional leather look to dainty pendant necklaces and simple chains. Without knowing it, you've probably seen a friend or coworker wearing a discreet BDSM collar.
What are BDSM collars used for ?
If you’ve been to a BDSM play, you may have noticed people wearing a collar. And you may think they’re super erotic. Well, they are! But collars aren’t just some goth fashion accessory. Yes. They look deliciously kinky but hold a deeper meaning to the people wearing them. They serve a wide variety of purposes and are full of symbolism.
IMPROVING POSTURE
– Meant to enhance a submissive posture or stance by keeping their chin up.
KINK PLAY
– Used for role play, puppy/kitten play (complete with pet name tags), BDSM fashion accessories, etc.
SHOWING POSSESSION
– In some circles, a collar shows that a Dom is in (consensual) "ownership" of their slave/sub. Different interaction etiquette is required if you wish to interact with them. (more on that later)
DISCREET/DAY WEAR
– Some people opt for other forms of socially acceptable jewelry to represent their at-home collars.
Material used BDSM collars
They come in a wide range of materials and are often decorated with spikes, studs, or other adornments. Some of the most common materials used in bondage collars include:
Leather: This is perhaps the most popular material for bondage collars. It looks great, feels great, and is very durable.
Rubber: Rubber is also a viral material for bondage collars. It is very versatile and comes in various colors and styles.
Metal: Metal collars can be made from stainless steel, titanium, and even aluminum.
Plastic: Plastic bondage collars are very lightweight and can be made in various designs.
Collars can also be made from various other materials, such as wood, glass, and stone.
How can you wear a BDSM collar:
You can wear BDSM collars in various ways, be bold and don't hesitate to try different methods:
DOG COLLARS – The most common type you’ll see. Often made from leather, sometimes with metal hardware (spikes, studs, loops, etc.), but there are also the nylon ones you can buy from a pet store: don't get confused. They can be thin and delicate with rhinestones and ruffles or large and intimidating.
TOY HYBRIDS – You’ll see the occasional collar that doubles as either a ball gag, O-ring gag, or medium for attaching other kink gear like floggers, cuffs, nose hooks, or other restraints.
FOREVER COLLARS – They’re called “forever” because, when fixed together, there’s no unmistakable clasp or attachment – they look like a solid steel ring around your neck. Quite lovely and passable for daywear.
“COLLAR” COLLARS – Instead of a loop, the neckpiece looks like you cut the collar of a shirt and attached a ring and leash—Tres chic.
JEWELRY – These are a bit harder to classify because they are as diverse as any regular necklace. However, you wouldn’t organize them as everyday necklaces (“day wear”); instead, they are chains with heavy BDSM or kink influences.
