The Pink Candy Jaguar Collar is a leather, white and pink collar, made by ASLAN Leather. The collar is about an inch and a half in width, and it is about twenty inches long. It includes a locking buckle at the back for those that want to play with locking bondage. The front of the collar includes an O-ring for leashes and other accessories.
The packaging for this collar is minimal. It just comes as-is inside the EdenFantasys shipping box, but it does have an ASLAN Leather tag on it that is easy to remove after you’ve received the collar. Aside from that, there is no packaging.
Like all ASLAN Leather products, the Pink Candy Jaguar Collar is made with quality in mind. Plus, it’s just cute! It’s really hard to find pink and other alternative colors (aside from black) in most BDSM gear, so it was a refreshing surprise to see ASLAN’s new line of the Pink Candy BDSM Gear which includes a pink collar, pink cuffs, and a pink strap-on harness. I own the strap-on harness and the collar, and both of the colors match up perfectly and the quality is great. The collar does not have any loose stitching, and the edges of each one of the pieces is trimmed perfectly. The inside of this leather collar is softened for comfortable wear, and the buckle, D-rings, and O-ring are all attached firmly to the collar through rivets to ensure that the collar will not break apart on you.
The collar is comfortable when worn, but it is not the most comfortable collar that my boyfriend has worn. The inner leather is not padded, and it is not lined with faux fur, but it also isn’t scratchy. The inner portion of the leather was softened to make it comfortable, but the outer edges of the collar can get to be a little bit scratchy if you end up moving your neck and body very often. Otherwise, though, the collar is extremely comfortable, and it should fit a variety of neck sizes. The collar is 20 inches long which makes it really large, and it should work well for the majority of people to wear unless you have some extra circumstances or have a larger-than-average neck. Otherwise, it fits perfectly.
This collar holds up too! I’ve attached leashes and other items to the O-ring on the front, and the collar does not break or anything with rough tugs. This is definitely a collar that is going to last a long time, and the multiple layers of leather help it hold up if you are someone that enjoys rough play. It doesn’t uncomfortable tug at the front of the neck, and instead, the pressure is placed on the back of the neck which makes the collar much safer to use than if it had placed pressure on the front of the neck.
If you are an advanced BDSM player, you also can take advantage of the fact that this is a locking collar. The buckle of the collar includes a small circle that allows you to slide a small lock through the buckle and lock the collar. Only do this if you are an advanced player and both participants are comfortable and have done BDSM before. This is because someone could possibly freak out, and having to find a key to unlock a lock while someone is not in a good mental state is not a fun thing. However, if you do tend to use locking collars on a regular basis and know what is going on, this lock does work just as well as others, and it holds the collar together nicely.
Cleaning this is pretty simple. You just have to use warm water on a slightly-damp washcloth and wipe down the leather. Soap on leather can certainly harm it, so avoid using soap on your leather. This can be used between multiple partners as long as no bodily fluids touch the leather. For storage, you can keep it in its natural, curled-up shape or you can lay it flat. I recommend keeping it curled up so the leather is used to the shape.
Overall, this collar is amazing. I have nothing negative to say about it. Nothing at all! This collar is comfortable, it holds up well to strong and rough play, it looks adorable, and it can lock if you want. It’s just downright adorable, and I love the fact that you can purchase a whole matching set to go along with this collar. That sounds like a win to me!
