Cheap Chinese Leather Armbinder: Thoughts on this?

Post by Zan »

Was doing some exploring on Aliexpress today looking for stuff to use as selfbondage gadgets and ended up finding this cheap armbinder for $15.

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Sexy-PU ... 41625.html

It appears to be semi decent and I was thinking for self bondage you could put it on reverse (so your arms are together in front) and you could then put a rope loop through the zipper. Then it just comes down to slinging the rope loop around something like a bed post and boom you're tied.

Thoughts on this?

I bought something similar 6 months ago and i was disappointed by the materials. It broke just out of the box while i was checking the zipper :x , and it was extremly small anyway. Absolutely not recommended!

The reviews are the best guide on AliExpress. You'll often find there are a dozen suppliers for (apparently) the same item but paying a few pennies more will get one with many more good reviews.

I have an bolero armbinder like this: http://www.latexguenstig.de/epages/6120 ... ucts/SM258

The quality is OK for the price. It doesn't fall apart by itself, but I think, that I would be able to break it, if necessary. It's not as tight as normal armbinders, perfect when you aren't that flexible...
I put some cord in a small loop on the zipper-handle, so I can hook that on a door knob and open or close the zipper (without the belts of course).
I have removed the stopper from the zipper end, so I could reach that with my fingers and pull it open in case it gets stuck.

I'm using this magnetic lock as a time release: https://www.baumwollseil.de/Magnetschloss-Maglock.html
I have fixed the small part to an icelock and the other one to the ring of the armbinder. When both parts get near to each other, the magnet snaps them together and I'll have to wait for the icelock until I can get free...

I have seen a few of these cheap products on aliexpress. And based on the review the are quite small and would fit only for small ladies. Also don't expect much from the quality.

Some sellers say they can make a costum fit, so this would solve the sizing issue but not the quality one. And it would be a shame to get stuck in such armbinder with a closed broken zipper...

I decided to not buy one and most likely saved a few bucks. I do buy a lot on aliexpress and there plenty of other good products.

Note that PU is NOT leather... it is PU!

Occorics,

I saw your link to the magnetic locks, but I'm not clear how you use them in combo with the ice lock. Can you explain?

I probably should have mentioned what type of icelock I use...

I connect the red end of the maglock to one side of the icelock and the small part to the armbinder's ring. Depending on the position, I stabilize the connections with some ductape, so parts of the maglock can't move around. A little paper-cone around the opening of the red part helps to guide the other part in place. Once they get close enough, the magnet does the rest. Normally, you would have to press on the sides of the maglock to release it, this is where the icelock comes into play...
Does this make it clear? If not, I can take a pic of the assembly later this week...

As I found out now, these are quick-release locks for dog leads.
Try to search for 'magloc connector'...

This can be easily verified.
If the site is owned by a german company or person german law stipulates there has to be an "impressum" providing all relevant contact info of the owner.

The link has to be clearly visible on every page; best place to look for it is @ the bottom of the page.
