Pick Your Paddle

Choose your shape

Broad, slim and shaped paddles look different and take up different amounts of space. Compare head width as well as total length so the parcel holds what you expected.

Get a feel for the material

Leather, synthetic coverings and other materials have different finishes and care needs. Read the material description: leather-look is a style, not a promise of leather.

Handle the details

A comfortable grip is worth finding. Check the handle length and any wrist loop, then pick a design you can hold comfortably.

Bondage Paddles FAQs

What is the difference between a paddle and a crop?

A paddle typically has a broader striking face. A crop usually has a longer shaft and smaller end. Compare the actual measurements because styles vary.

Are paddles with holes always lighter?

Not necessarily. Thickness, construction and dimensions also affect weight. Cut-outs alone do not establish weight or suitability.

Does leather-look mean genuine leather?

No. Look for the material specification. Synthetic finishes and leather can have different cleaning and storage requirements.

How should I store a paddle?

Clean it as the maker directs, allow it to dry and store it away from damp and damaging heat. Avoid folding designs that are meant to stay flat.
