When you’re looking for an easy way to comfortably suspend the weight of the feet and legs, the Foot Suspension Bonds from MEO.de might be just the solution you’re looking for. Entirely adjustable to fit any adult foot size, these foot suspension bonds feature two D-rings that can be connected to any bondage point to hold the feet into the air. The Foot Suspension Bonds are fastened onto the foot by two straps with buckles, and the interior of the bonds are cushioned by soft padded covered in leather. The MEO.de Foot Suspension Bonds Deluxe comes with two of these cuffs – one for each foot.
Like many items from MEO.de, these Foot Suspension Bonds come packaged in a plastic, see-through bag. The bag must be destroyed in order to get the restraints out of the bag. There’s a small bar code used for warehouse organization on the bag, but other than that, there are no instructions or manual included with this suspension bondage product.
The Foot Suspension Bonds Deluxe are designed relatively simply. These cuffs are designed to hold the feet in a bottom-of-the-foot towards the ceiling position. With unique set-ups, these foot restraints can be used to hold the foot into any position where the bondage point is opposite the top of the foot – including laying down positions. To accomplish this, these restraints used lots of padding and some straps. The padding runs along the entirety of the bonds including along the top of the foot under the harder leather shell. There are two straps that run along the ankle as the only two restraint points: one along the ankle itself and another along the lower calf. The padding runs underneath these two restraint straps as well.
The first couple of times you put these foot suspension restraints onto someone, you’ll likely have to do some trial and error. When they’re not on a foot, these restraints look like a jungle of straps and padding, and for the first couple of times you use it, you’ll likely have to refasten and change around the straps that you’ve accidentally placed in the wrong place. Luckily, the straps are pretty easy to change around – just make sure you don’t go around trying to place weight onto the cuffs without making sure all of the padding and straps are into the proper place.
As a surprising addition, only one of the two foot suspension restraints seems to come with a carabiner for attaching it to external bondage points. It seems odd that the set only comes with one, but that seems to be the case. When selecting a carabiner for yourself, make sure you select a climbing-grade one used for rock climbing at your local sports store. The “decorative” ones you’ll find for keychains can’t hold weight, and they’ll likely snap extremely quickly once you place any sort of weight on them. Be safe with your suspension partner!
I would be particularly careful trying to suspend someone from these suspension bonds alone. If you want to do something like that, you’ll likely want something more robust and supportive (and shoe-like) than these (such as equipment used for inverted sit-ups). However, these can be used as part of your “package” for suspension – and will likely be a lot more comfortable than using ankle cuffs or rope alone. You just don’t want the sole suspension point to be these boots. The leather itself tends to dit into the top of the foot relatively painfully with full weight placed only upon the boots.
However, when weight is dispersed throughout more of the boot, it works a lot better. How you choose to do this can be up to you. You could use a sex swing to hold the body – while the ankles are held up by these cuffs (which actually seems pretty erotic in itself!) You could choose to support the torso of the body by laying it on a floor/table/bed while the feet are lifted into the area for access to the genital area. You could choose to use rope or suspension wrist cuffs to help suspend the rest of the body while the weight of the legs are supported by these boots. How you choose to do it is up to you – but be aware that you should definitely have a plan in mind for suspension that includes more than just these foot suspension bonds.
As the foot cuffs are made almost entirely of leather, cleaning these won’t be quite as smooth as cleaning your favorite sex toys. You’ll want to be careful with standard soaps as many soaps may cause damage to the leather. As these shouldn’t be getting near bodily fluids often, a wipe down with a slightly damp washcloth will suffice for regular cleanings. For proper love to your cuffs, though, you’ll likely want to clean and shine these up with leather cleaning supplies – and many bootblacks or other leather lovers may enjoy the task. For storage, I’d recommend keeping the boots curled up into their boot-shape – preferably on one of the looser settings. Store this out of direct sunlight and try to avoid them getting too squished.
Overall, if you want an easy way to support the weight of the entire leg without any discomfort, the Foot Suspension Bonds Deluxe are the way to go. While you’ll spend a bit of time learning how to use them, and they aren’t suitable for suspension solely by these restraints, they are simple to use, fit a wide variety of feet, look sexy, and likely already match your BDSM aesthetic. Thanks to MEO.de for providing these foot suspension cuffs for my Foot Suspension Bonds Deluxe review.
