**Product Review** --Sportsheets Thigh Harness

“Maybe he's a eunuch?" put in the actor helpfully. We were staring at the package for the Sportsheets Neoprene Thigh Harness that was currently making its home in the center of my dining room table. The front of the package showed a M/F couple with him wearing the thigh cuff; a dildo standing out from the cuff. The woman was straddling his leg, her body just above the dildo, head already thrown back in ecstasy.
"Maybe they're just open to trying new things" I told him peevishly, smacking his arm.
"Maybe..." he said dubiously."No...no, I think he's definitely a Ken doll. Now THIS, this make so much more sense" he exclaimed spinning the package to its side, where two females were pictured using the thigh cuff. “If you and Michelle use this thing, I want to watch,” he added getting up to leave. I told him he would be the first to know if Michelle and I used it, but that HE was going to be my test subject that night.

That evening before he came back, I pulled the thigh harness out to examine without the Actor’s colorful running commentary. The thing that struck me about the Sportsheets thigh harness was how amazingly unsexy it was. It closely resembled a knee brace, and I wasn’t sure that I wanted to be reminded of the tennis court—or worse, gym class—during sexy time. The structure of the harness is very basic: It’s a wide, neoprene cuff with two wide Velcro straps, and a neoprene-covered O-ring in the center. Put your dildo of choice through the center hole, put the harness around your thigh, and tighten Velcro closures until secure. I was initially a bit skeptical about the Velcro—how snug could Velcro possible hold, after all? The answer: REMARKABLY well. The Velcro closures were nice and snug, and for being a very light-weight apparatus, it holds the dildo in place extremely well. I did not, at any point during our use, worry that the dildo was slipping or sagging. So…good job, gym class cuff! You might not be sexy to look at, but your simple design is a winner!

Several important things to note about the dildo—first and foremost, the thigh harness does NOT come with one. I realize this probably seems self-explanatory to anyone that actually reads the description of the product, but there are some folks out there that buy based on pictures! Secondly, the biggest dildo this harness will be able to accommodate is 1.5” in width. This is just fine for someone like me, that prefers things to be petite, but for you size queens, this may be a deal-breaker.
Clean-up is a cinch with the Thigh Harness; just toss in the washing machine. I would imagine that repeated washings will eventually break down the integrity of the Velcro, but it’s sturdy enough to start with that it would probably last for quite a while. This harness says it will accommodate a thigh up to 21” around—as a size 12/14, I am able to comfortably wear this in the middle of my leg. I’ve seen other reviews state that it will, in fact fit a larger thigh than stated, so I can safely recommend this to my fuller-figured sisters.

So does it work?
In a word—yes. Oh yes. The actor insisted he felt silly with a dildo strapped to his thigh when his own erection was a mere few inches away, but he stopped complaining when I mounted the dildo. I was able to bounce on his leg while simultaneously stroking his cock, and the whole experience was just very, very hot. We didn’t get a chance to swap places that night, but we are looking forward to me using the harness/dildo on him very soon. I can’t think of any couple combination that this wouldn’t be a good toy for—M/M, M/F, F/F…everyone can find a way to incorporate this into playtime.
The Goods
--simple construction, and ease of use
--easily washed, seems very durable for the price!
--holds dildo in place remarkably well; you won’t need to stop and constantly readjust with this harness!

The Bads
--Rather limited on the size of dildo this can accommodate; if you’re using this for anal play, that probably won’t be an issue, but for size queens, there will be disappointment ahead!
--Looks like a support brace; if you need aesthetics to be in the mood, this might not do it for you…unless you had a thing for your middle school gym teacher!

I would highly recommend the Sportsheets Thigh Harness to anyone looking to incorporate some fun new positions or role-reversal play into their sex lives...and at just $32 from Babeland, this really is a steal. This is a product that will last and last...and when it finally gives, you'll be hastily replacing it! Thanks as usual to our friends at Babeland Toys for providing this product in exchange for an honest review!
