Wearable Dildos

What Are Wearable Dildos and How Do They Work?

Wearable dildos give you hands-free pleasure and change how you enjoy intimate moments, whether you're alone or with a partner. These devices stay secure through different mechanisms, so you can be more spontaneous and uninhibited during play.

Different types of wearable dildos explained

You'll find several distinct designs of wearable dildos that each create unique experiences:

• Strap-on dildos: These are the most common type that attach with a harness around your waist and thighs for hands-free control. They work great for both vaginal and anal play.

• Hollow dildos: Men can wear these over their penis to add length, girth, or get support with erectile dysfunction. They work as both enhancement and assistive devices.

• Double-ended dildos: These have stimulation points at both ends that let you experience simultaneous penetration. Some stay in place without a harness, while others need one to stay stable.

• Strapless strap-ons: These are different from regular strap-ons because they use a vaginal plug that the wearer inserts instead of a harness. Many couples love them because they create a closer connection.

• Vibrating wearable dildos: Modern options often include vibration features, and some let you control them from up to 32 feet away. The advanced ones even let you control them through an app for long-distance play.

• Wearable thrusting dildos: These come with motorized mechanisms that thrust automatically up to 320 strokes per minute. You can adjust the thrust depth from 1.18 to 5.91 inches based on what you like.

The market also offers wearable internal vibrators for G-spot or clitoral stimulation and external stimulators that fit in your underwear. Remote-controlled options make it fun to let your partner join in.

Key benefits of using wearable dildos

These toys do more than conventional ones. They let you enjoy pleasure without using your hands, so you can focus on other kinds of stimulation or intimacy. People with mobility issues or disabilities find them especially helpful because they make sexual stimulation easier to access.

Couples can spice up their intimacy with these toys. Research shows 45% of American men have tried vibrators during partner sex. Their partners report better libido, stronger erections, and more orgasms when men use vibrators.

Women who find it hard to reach orgasm can benefit from vibrating models that provide steady stimulation. Studies show about 75% of women need manual stimulation or sex toys to orgasm during sex.

Men dealing with erectile dysfunction can use hollow wearable dildos for satisfying penetration even when erections aren't reliable. Some devices use neuromodulation and vibration to help improve sexual performance.

These toys also help couples try new things. Many say wearable dildos help them find fresh ways to please each other and break out of their usual routines.

Common misconceptions about wearable toys

People believe many myths about wearable dildos despite their popularity. Some think they're just for single or lonely people. The truth is 78% of sex toy users are women in committed relationships. Women who are dating someone actually use vibrators more often than single women.

Many worry vibrators will make them numb or less sensitive. You might feel temporary numbness while using them, but it never lasts. The Kinsey Institute found that women who use vibrators regularly enjoy sex more, want it more often, and have more orgasms.

These toys aren't just for women. They work for all genders and sexual orientations. About 54% of males and 69% of females own vibrators. Men can enjoy hollow designs, prostate stimulators, and couples' toys.

Some people think these toys will replace human connection. They actually bring people closer by encouraging them to talk about what they want. Quality toys don't have to cost a fortune either. You can find plenty of safe, affordable options. Just make sure they use FDA-standard materials that keep you safe.

Understanding how wearable dildos work helps you make smart choices about using them, whether you're playing solo or with a partner.

How to Choose the Right Wearable Dildo for Beginners

The market today has so many wearable dildos that picking your first one might seem daunting. New users need to find the right mix of comfort, functionality, and pleasure by looking at several important factors.

Understanding your comfort level and needs

You need an honest look at yourself before buying a wearable dildo. Think about what you want from your toy and be realistic about your experience. New users should start with smaller, simpler toys.

Your preferred type of stimulation matters. You might want to focus on girth (up to 1.5 inches maximum for beginners) if you enjoy feeling "full." A slim curved dildo might work better if you find G-spot or shallow stimulation more enjoyable.

Here are some questions to ask yourself:

• Will you use it alone or with someone else?
• Do you want it for vaginal or anal play?
• Would you prefer static pleasure or vibration?

Vibrating toys work great for beginners since they're good for both internal and external stimulation. First-time users should look at models with lower intensity settings to ease into the experience.

Size considerations for first-time users

Size plays a vital role in choosing your first wearable dildo. These dimensions work best for beginners:

• Width: 1 to 1.25 inches
• Girth: 3 to 3.5 inches
• Length: About 5 inches

Start smaller than you might think—you can always get a bigger one later. A tapered tip makes insertion easier for newcomers.

The material affects how size feels during use. Soft materials like silicone give a bit when squeezed, which feels less intense than hard materials like glass or metal. A 1.5-inch silicone dildo might feel better than a smaller glass one because it's more flexible.

Body-safe materials should top your priority list. Silicone stands out because it's non-porous, easy to clean, and lasts long. Stay away from jelly-like materials made from rubber, PVC, or Cyberskin since they might contain harmful chemicals and trap bacteria.

Firmness makes a difference, especially for specific activities. Firmer dildos give better control for deep penetration, while flexible ones might work better for long-term wear.

Harness vs. harness-free options

Your comfort and control depend a lot on understanding harness types for wearable strap-ons.

Two-strap harnesses have one strap around the waist and another between the legs. These give great control but might not feel as good during longer sessions. Three-strap harnesses use one waist strap plus two around the thighs, offering better stability and support. Brief-style harnesses look like underwear and work best for beginners who might find traditional harnesses awkward.

Most strap-on harnesses work with different dildo sizes through changeable O-rings. Metal rings hold heavier dildos better, while silicone rings fit snugger and might feel better for both partners during close penetration.

Strapless strap-ons need strong pelvic floor muscles to stay in place, especially with lube. Many people like using strapless dildos with harness briefs (bought one size smaller) for the perfect mix of intimate connection and stability.

New users might want to start with a harness. They take some time to adjust properly, but they help you guide the sensations and movements better. Once fitted right, most slip on and off quickly without killing the mood.

Note that you'll learn what works best through trial and error. Think about what matters most: durability, mobility, control, or looks. Starting with mid-range options ($35-55) lets you explore without spending too much while you find your priorities.

Essential Features to Look for in Wearable Strap Ons

Choosing the right features in a wearable strap-on can mean the difference between frustration and amazing pleasure. The technical aspects of these intimate accessories go beyond size and style to determine their performance, durability, and safety.

Material safety and body compatibility

Your wearable dildo's material affects both safety and sensation. Medical-grade silicone leads the market as the gold standard. This material combines durability, flexibility, and body safety. Silicone doesn't let bacteria grow and remains nonporous, which makes it safe to use internally.

What makes silicone such a great choice for intimate products?

• Perfect hypoallergenic properties for sensitive areas
• Stable chemical structure that won't leak harmful substances
• You can disinfect it 99.9% between uses
• Safe to use in shower or bath
• Surface responds to temperature and warms up with your body

Stay away from toys made of jelly rubber, PVC, or "silicone blends". These materials often contain phthalates - chemicals that can disrupt hormones and cause health issues. These materials also absorb fluids and trap bacteria, so you can't clean them properly.

The adult toy industry lacks regulation, which means terms like "body-safe" have no standard definition. Good brands list their material details clearly, while vague descriptions often point to lower quality materials.

Stability and secure fit features

A stable wearable strap-on lets you enjoy the experience without constant adjustments. The best harness designs include:

Nylon straps you can adjust up to 50 inches for waist and 26 inches for thighs fit various body types well. A flexible base plate helps you stay comfortable during long sessions without losing stability.

Strapless designs should have an internal bulb around 3.14 inches long and 2.46 inches wide. This size anchors well and targets the G-spot while keeping the toy steady.

O-rings hold the dildo to the harness. Metal rings work better with heavier toys, and silicone rings feel more comfortable during close contact.

Flexibility and comfort design elements

Stability matters, but too much rigidity can make long sessions uncomfortable. The best wearable dildos balance firmness with flexibility.

Position memory technology keeps your toy at the right angle without being rigid or loose. Lightweight silicone internal loops keep strapless designs steady but don't get in the way during intimate moments.

The best designs curve naturally with your body. Premium models flex just enough to stay comfortable while hitting the right spots for G-spot or prostate play.

Brief-style harnesses work great for plus-size users or people with mobility issues. These harnesses spread pressure evenly across your body. Models with extra adjustment options fit different body shapes without pinching sensitive areas.

The best wearable strap-ons combine quality materials with smart design. They become a natural extension of your body and boost your intimate moments.

Best Wearable Dildos for Different Body Types

The right wearable dildo that fits your body type can change your experience from basic functionality to real comfort and pleasure. Your body shape needs a toy that's made with your specific needs in mind.

Options for plus-size users

Plus-size bodies need products created for their curves instead of poorly modified standard sizes. Several manufacturers now make dedicated plus-size options that work well.

SpareParts Hardwear makes high-quality plus-size strap-on harnesses in sizes from 1X to 5X. Queer people and lesbian women design these products. Their range has multiple styles from full-coverage boxers to revealing designs that show off your assets while you stay comfortable and stable.

A harness that doesn't fit well can make you uncomfortable and reduce pleasure during intimate moments. Well-designed plus-size harnesses spread pressure evenly across your body. This prevents painful digging or pinching when you move.

Aslan Leather's popular models like the Jaguar Harness, Prince Minx, and Commando come in extended sizes. These premium leather options fit waists up to 72 inches. They look stylish, last long, and keep toys securely in place.

Adjustable designs for various body shapes

Many wearable dildos now come with smart adjustable designs that work for different body proportions. Here are some harnesses with great adjustability:

Nylon strap designs fit waists up to 50 inches and thighs up to 26 inches. These work well for various body shapes. Sportsheets makes high-waisted options like the Aurora harness. These provide better stability if you have wider hips or a rounder belly.

Brief-style harnesses look like underwear and spread pressure more evenly than traditional strap designs. They work great for bodies with pronounced curves. You'll feel more comfortable wearing these for longer periods while staying stable and confident.

Wearable vaginal plugs with strong internal anchoring work well if you don't want harnesses. These strapless designs depend on your pelvic floor strength instead of external measurements. They adapt well to different body types.

Body Dock Elite systems let you adjust the base to fit various body configurations. This helps people whose bodies don't match standard harness designs. The systems work exceptionally well if you have unique proportions or weight distributions.

Accessibility considerations

Disability-friendly wearable dildos help with specific mobility and dexterity challenges while keeping pleasure in mind. Here are some accessible products:

Large, embossed buttons and remote controls help users with hand disabilities. You won't need precise finger movements. Toys with foot-long handles and hand straps give extra stability if you have limited dexterity or reach.

The Quest line by Rocks-Off works with disabled users to create better products. Their Elevate cock ring has finger loops that make it easy to put on without needing fine motor control. This shows how the industry is becoming more inclusive.

Magnetic charging connections replace small ports in wearable dildos. This eliminates frustrating tiny connections that create problems if you have dexterity challenges.

Lightweight designs that stay in place help people with limited mobility reduce fatigue. The IntimateRider Sex Chair pairs well with wearable dildos. It creates motion through upper body movement - perfect for people with paraplegia or quadriplegia.

Truly accessible wearable dildos are different from mainstream designs. They have pull tabs on packaging that work with one finger or your mouth. You'll find braille indicators and high-contrast colors too. These small but vital features make intimate products available to everyone.

Wearable Dildos for Men vs. Wearable Dildos for Women

The way male and female bodies differ shapes how wearable dildos work and feel. Your body's natural contours determine what makes these toys comfortable, stable, and pleasurable.

Anatomical considerations and design differences

Male-oriented wearable dildos work with external genitalia. These products boost or supplement natural anatomy with stronger base support that balances the shaft's weight. Female-specific wearable dildos use internal anchoring systems that match vaginal anatomy. This helps keep everything stable while you use them.

The main difference shows up in how these toys attach. Most male designs use external harnesses while many female options anchor internally. The weight spreads differently between these styles too. Men's options just need more substantial external support structures.

Hollow designs for erectile dysfunction

Hollow strap-ons are a breakthrough for men with erectile dysfunction (ED). These devices combine a rigid outer surface with a hollow inside that fits a flaccid penis. You can enjoy penetrative sex without needing an erection. We designed these wearables as a sexual aid that keeps its shape during intimacy. This lets couples stay close even with erectile difficulties.

Quality hollow designs feel comfortable inside while staying firm enough outside for penetration. Most come with adjustable harnesses and waistbands that fit sizes from 28 to 52 inches. People of any gender can use these systems since the rigid material works great for penetration.

Strapless options for vaginal wearers

Strapless strap-ons skip the harnesses completely. They use a bulbous end that goes inside the vagina instead. This "saddle" or egg-shaped piece sits against the G-spot. You get extra pleasure while thrusting and it helps anchor everything in place. The slim neck works like a butt plug to keep the larger ball secure.

These toys are a great way to get intimate but you'll need strong pelvic floor muscles to keep them stable. This becomes especially important during energetic play. Even people who know what they're doing sometimes struggle once things get slippery. Many users pair them with brief-style harnesses to get more support without losing that close connection.

Some advanced models come with vibration motors. You can control each one separately using a remote or app. This makes everything more fun for both partners during intimate moments.

Maintenance, Cleaning, and Storage Tips

Your wearable dildo's lifespan and your health depend on proper cleaning and storage. Each toy needs specific care based on its materials and features.

Proper cleaning based on material type

Different materials need different cleaning approaches:

Silicone toys are the most common quality wearable dildos. Clean them with mild soap and warm water or a specialized toy cleaner. You can boil non-electronic silicone toys for 3 minutes to disinfect them really well.

Glass or stainless steel toys are easier to clean. These non-porous materials work well with soap and water. You can place them in your dishwasher's top rack without detergent or boil them. Metal heats up faster, so let it cool down after boiling.

Battery-operated wearables need special attention. Take out the batteries before cleaning. Never put them in water unless they're waterproof. Just wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap.

Disinfection methods for shared toys

Sharing toys requires extra care:

Non-electronic toys made of pure silicone, stainless steel, or borosilicate glass need 3 minutes of boiling to kill bacteria. Your dishwasher's sanitize cycle without soap works too.

Waterproof toys can handle a bleach solution (⅓ cup bleach per gallon of water). Spray or soak them for 10 minutes, then rinse and dry them well.

Storage solutions to maintain quality

Dry your toys completely before storage to prevent bacteria growth. Each toy needs its own cloth bag or original packaging to stay in good shape.

Keep silicone toys away from other silicone products. They can react and "melt" together. Cool, dry places away from sunlight work best for storage.

When to replace your wearable dildo

Look for these signs:

• Battery life gets shorter
• You see cracks, tears or peeling
• Vibrations feel weaker
• Bad smells stay even after cleaning

Quality toys last several years with good care, but they won't last forever. Regular maintenance helps you get the most out of your investment.

Conclusion

The right wearable dildo should match your unique needs, body type, and intended use. Medical-grade silicone remains the safest material choice. A proper fit will give you both comfort and pleasure during intimate moments.

Your body needs a toy that fits well and works reliably. The choice between traditional harness designs and strapless varieties depends on your preference. Make sure to buy from reputable manufacturers that use body-safe materials and provide clear sizing guidelines.

Simple cleaning and storage routines will substantially extend your toy's life. Basic maintenance protects your investment and health, which leads to countless hours of safe enjoyment. Note that quality wearable dildos can provide years of reliable pleasure when you take good care of them.

Finding your perfect wearable dildo takes some trial and error. Start small and simple before you try more advanced features. This complete knowledge helps you pick a wearable dildo that matches your desires and improves your intimate experiences with confidence.
